DiemetriX Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 A souce deep inside nintendo officialy told me that the name is fake. The real name will come at E3* *may not be true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFB Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I think you guys are overreacting. Look at the video. Four i´s playing together. Having fun. No indirect hint that it´s the new Revo name. I guess it´s the name for the Wi-Fi connection. Wii sounds better than "Wi-Fi Connection" So my guess... Not the Revname, but the new Wi-Fi name. New Revoname will be at E3 I guess... But if this IS the new name, well... the name doesn´t mean anything. We want the games, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendork Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Pfft Diemetrix don't start.. people will take that seriously if they're skimming the thread later when it has grown to 80 pages. My theory is- iPod has one i. Wii has 2 so it must be better, it's appealing to the iPod generation. It's even in the same damned font. Nintendo is the new Apple.. once an underdog in the last 2 generations it's coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kav Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Well considering it's Wii as in "we" then should we expect HUGE things from online, because that's the big "we" market! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demuwan Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 When that I came up I thought we(no pun intended) would have a lawsuit on our hands. Now I wish they had called it the Ibot or woteva cus WII is shit. for so many reasons. I would like to shoot the dumbass that came up with it. *at NOA how about we but with 2 i's that sounds hip* nods of agreement :mad: :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Jackson Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 What the hell were they thinking? I can see sony and x-box fanboys christening it "THE PEE WEE". You have to explain what Wii means, with revolution you have an idea of what it means. I hope this is some kind of sick joke. Looking at the posts on various boards the majority of people hate it.

Nintendo is the new Apple.. once an underdog in the last 2 generations it's coming back. True, and it doesn't appear to be a blateant rip off of an iPod. You know the products like 'iMP3' and 'iDVDplayer' which you just know are going to break after a few hours of use. It could even be a subconcious thing.

Stocka Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Im praying to all the gods that this is some form of sick joke. Theres no way Nintendo would put it on all their official sites as a joke.

Nintendork Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 It's not a joke, it wont change. They've probably spent hundreds of thousands paying people to come up with this and sit in an office doing research to find out what the next big thing is. A name of a car can make or break a car's reputation.. regardless of which is a better car males will be a powerful sounding car name over something elegant. The name will not change.

AFB Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Why do you insist it´s the new name for the Rev? Does it SAY it IS the new name? I´m still going for the new Wi-Fi Connection name... To be proven wrong at E3... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pit-Jr Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Japan will surely eat this up, so its not all bad and anyway, most people refer to a Nintendo console as their 'Nintendo', much like i still do even with the GC example: 'What are you doing?' 'Playing Nintendo' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
