The Nintendo Wii - Apr 28, 2006 02:00

Introducing … Wii.
As in “we.”

While the code-name “Revolution” expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer.

Wii will break down that wall that separates video game players from everybody else.

Wii will put people more in touch with their games … and each other. But you’re probably asking: What does the name mean?

Wii sounds like “we,” which emphasizes this console is for everyone.

Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.

Wii has a distinctive “ii” spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people gathering to play.

And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of video games that sets it apart from the crowd.

So that’s Wii. But now Nintendo needs you.

Because, it’s really not about you or me.

It’s about Wii.

And together, Wii will change everything






Ok. I think it' s stupid!

I dunno if I' d wanna openly proclaim to owning a Wii...

I mean I' d get it no matter the name but I just wouldnt ever mention the name in public.

Sounds like a pet name for a certain male organ.

That must be the most retarded name possible. Is it for playing games, or is it some kind of hi tech chemical toilet?

I really hope this is just a case of someone taking the wee...

I really like the logo but that name is like I understand what they
are trying to say but look at who you are dealing " I got two Wii(s?) a Wii Wii. Lol"

\but maybe it will make people think about it.

I' ve got my fingers crossed for a last minute announcement along the lines, " No need to worry people. That was just a late April Fool' s joke. Now let us introduce you to the fifth and most brilliant entertainment system from Nintendo... The Nintendo Wang."
