Revolution's final name....Wii. (pronounced we)

[Rocky Raccoon]

It is a name devoid of meaning. XBox is at least descriptive enough to point out the system is a box. Playstation is VERY descriptive. It's for playing things, maybe games, maybe a DVD, all at this station. Gamecube is a cube of games. Apple's iCraze is basically all about the fact that i stands for internet. Thing is everyone "has some internets" these days. Sticking i on something doesn't do much now except make people recognize a brand.

Wii though? WIreless Internet? That's all I can figure, but we already HAVE a term for that, it's called wi-fi, and it isn't pronounced like an idiot.

Yes, lazy and abf, this will create 5 years of elementary school level jokes.

And further, they WILL use the "We are family" song. ABF, consider yourself lucky to not know of that song. GR may call you stupid, but the reality is, he's as envious as I.

They might as well have called it the "Nintendo Sploitz" for all the meaning the name has to me.

nintendo has explained what it means, and i think they were quoted in this thread.
