Quote:See that's what doesn't make sense. Nintendo specificly said that they wanted to choose a name that didn't mean anything in any language. So they chose a word that means small and insignificant in Scotland, urine in the US, yes in French, ugh somewhere else (Canada I think), in addition to the fact that it just sounds, as you said, childish and toylike.
It makes me seriously wonder whether anyone in Nintendo is sane...

I won't argue that. I haven't spoken to them in several years but I'd say they are still the same, and won't buy a Wii because of the name.
Image isn't everything but it is a deciding factor for some people.
A lot of people do think that way though, and wasn't the whole point of this console to ATTRACT people who otherwise might not have gotten a Nintendo console, not drive them away? I guess not, if they keep this name...
