Fields Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 You do realise that Revolution has not been confirmed as the official final name of Nintendo's console? In fact, the name 'Revolution' was removed from the prototypes shown since E3. When the name is changed, this site is going to look a bit silly. It would be like calling a website 'StarCube-Europe'. So, um, yeah. Just making a point really. I eagerly await the inevitable lockage

I didn't know any of this. Why did no one tell me? I can't believe it. Why would no one tell me this? You'd think the people that run this site would've told me or something. I just can't believe what you're telling me. Revolution isn't the final confirmed name? What's your source? Oh man, the site is doomed and my world is falling apart.
The Peeps Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Revolution-Europe is a better name than 'to-be-announced-europe' 'codename-europe' 'name-not-final-europe' 'who-really-cares-europe'
Pestneb Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I'm pretty sure they were aware that it wasn't necessarily the final name, but revolution means more than star-cube. since the site covers the gameboy line, the DS as well as the cube, and the revolution (what ever its name will be) it doesn't necessarily have to have the homeconsolename-europe. they may change their name, or stick with it and justify the name as the code name of Nintendos (final name of revo) and (usual rubbish about the greater significance to the word revolution as it relates to the site, its aims, and nintendo's aims) in short, doesn't matter.

Oh man, the site is doomed and my world is falling apart. Just in case you were wondering this translates into english as "You thick **** did you honestly think we didn't know. How could you be so stupid?"
MoogleViper Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 It has to be asked...who really cares? Well we all should right 'cos you see yeah there's like this unwritten law or somethin' that means that we can't like use a site thats got the wrong like name or somethin'.
Hellfire Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Wasn't this dicussed og I don0t know... when the site was created?
MoogleViper Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Wasn't this dicussed og I don0t know... when the site was created? I think it was discussed on C-E before the site was created.
mario114 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Ninty will probaly just leave it as revolution, like they did with the ds.
AshMat Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 It's pretty easy to change the header and domain name...
ViPeR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I eagerly await the inevitable lockage How prophetic you are. Good luck with that.

Especially when the console and website has already gained a reputation under the Revolution name. Besides, it's not exactly rocket science to rectify the 'problem' if the name does get changed.
Atomic Boo Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 thats so sad dude. i reckon it should remain revo-europe because of the brilliant speculation before the real console name. keep the name it rocks
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I propose that this thread remain open. At least until the thread starter replies to my post.

When the name is changed, this site is going to look a bit silly. It would be like calling a website 'StarCube-Europe'. This bit amused me. Nah, we didn't realise any of that at all. In fact, we just plucked a random word out of the sky and shoved europe on the end of it. The word chosen just so happened to be the name which the console is mostly recognised by. Oh, and there is absolutely no way around this problem at all. We are doomed. Nintendo is doomed. Earth, and the universe itself, is buggered beyond all recognition. You are also the first person to pick up on this and the first to be able to create a thread about this. I bet that makes you really proud.

Fierce_LiNk Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Wow. sarcasm is still alive To be honest, this isn't exactly the staff of this forum have been posed with this question by someone on the forums. It must be the fourth or fifth thread by now? And moogleviper: awww, i would have loved to have seen his reply. :p
Ashley Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah I think we're on the fifth thread now, something like that. And the answer to all of them is "We'll see" If its not called the Revolution than maybe we'll change, or maybe we'll stay the same. Would prevent us from having the change the name again in four years perhaps.
