vicious77 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I still think their will be more of a logo to it than just the name, even if its just adding in a couple of circles or something. what like this? :awesome: http://server3.pictiger.com/img/260482/picture-hosting/11612283160.php dammit image posting not working.. i just posted the link..
Waylander Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I dont like the name but I will get one, no matter what Nintendo called it.
Smowza Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 anyone who really hates the name better get used to it cuz in a few months time you'll be seeing it everytime you boot up the thing. i suggest to start work on liking it now
DCK Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 anyone who really hates the name better get used to it cuz in a few months time you'll be seeing it everytime you boot up the thing. i suggest to start work on liking it now I'll try. The first 'OMG teh suxxorz' reaction is starting to wear off. I actually like the logo flash thingy on Nintendo's website now
The3rdChildren Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I have no problems with the name, the fact it is so bizarre is great. Anyone who won't be buying this because of the name probably isn't mature enough to play games with their Wii anyway.
arab_freak Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 what like this? :awesome: http://server3.pictiger.com/img/260482/picture-hosting/11612283160.php dammit image posting not working.. i just posted the link.. Now THAT'S a logo.
Smowza Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 personally i would just like them to say each letter stands for something ( i know it is meant to be 2 i's for the unique controller and people etc). Something like Wireless interactive immersion

Belease Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I'm getting one, but the chances of me ever calling it a Wii is slim to none. There's also zero possibility I'll ever hear anyone say Wii without thinking of wee. Written down it's not so bad. But say it and BAM - I think of wee.
Retro_Link Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 personally i would just like them to say each letter stands for something ( i know it is meant to be 2 i's for the unique controller and people etc). Something like Wireless interactive immersion What is it ........a Nintendo Revolution, that's what!!
arab_freak Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Wang inside <scientific name for reproductive organs> The possibilities are limited. Very limited.
Smowza Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Wireless interactive interface Wireless immersive interface other names could have been 'Free' and 'One'
Dr.Boo Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Even if I don't like the name, there is no reason I wouldn't buy it. This console will kick ass, and wether it's named wii or Revolution, it won't change the hardware and the games. I'll go to the store, and ask for "the latest Nintendo console please"
Zero Seven Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 ill defintely but the Wii without a second thought, its just right now... the name hasnt grown on me yet at all. I still dont like it but I do think its actually cool as a logo or in writing rather than saying it. maybe it will grow on me but I know im defintely buying one without question.
monkeyDluffy Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 well we've all got 6 months ish before its released so theirs plenty of time!
AshMat Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I think ill jsut call it a nintendo until Wii sinks in
monkeyDluffy Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 what like this? :awesome: http://server3.pictiger.com/img/260482/picture-hosting/11612283160.php dammit image posting not working.. i just posted the link.. yeah, something like that. 360 has its circles/X, PS3 will have that strange PS logo that has been their since ps1, gamecube had the cube logo, so I assume their will be something.
ShadowV7 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Wii has settled in to my mind more now.Hope i'll get like it alot like the Revolution.
SINFIELD Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 That is a fair point, i think that will be overlooked post E3 though. Any name other than the 'revolution' that we have grown to love over the past year was blatently going to get a bit of stick though.

gaggle64 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Did the Siemens mobile phone company have to go through all this?
Towers Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Still dont' like the name.. I don't mind the fact they're trying to be different but different doesn't always mean better. However I'm still getting one without a doubt but I will still think it's a crap name
