SINFIELD Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Over the last couple of days....the new name has been given a "LOT" of stick. However, reading articles and looking through interviews now....the name 'Wii' has really grown on me :-D I'm starting to think that the new name has given the console that little bit more attention that will s urely increase the number of potential people that will actually take note of E3 to see what this innovative new Wii business is all about! Smart move Nintendo!
Guest Jordan Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I have to admit, i too am getting used to the name. I'm still not that happy with it but what can you do?
KKOB Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 i'm loving the name now! it really is a grower, all my friends laughed at first at the name but it got them relly interested and a few of them went and found out about it under their own steam and then told me they cant wait for it to come out
Nintendork Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I hate all the freaking puns. You're not funny people. Besides that the name is okay.
*Dalco* Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 it is a grower and i think its quite quirky as when people see "Wii" it doesn;t mean anything though it is pronounced "We" i don't think it will affect people after a while
BGS Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Is yet another Wii name discussion thread really needed?
ShadowV7 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I quite like 'Wii' look's strange and stand's out.I love it now :awesome: To BGS,no that's what I thought to myself aswell.
Nintendork Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Is yet another Wii name discussion thread really needed?Certainly not. We've got polls, the original huge thread and photoshop threads.If it is growing on us it surely can go in one of those.
The fish Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I'm ok with it now, but I just keep pronuncing it as "why" ('cause it's spelt like wi-fi")
DCK Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Yep, today I don't squinch anytime I see it written anymore. Guess you get used to everything
DiemetriX Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Yep, today I don't squinch anytime I see it written anymore. Guess you get used to everything All is well if even you begin to like it
SINFIELD Posted April 29, 2006 Author Posted April 29, 2006 :-D sorry if you thought there was no need for the thread...but just thought I'd express the fact that altough the initial reaction was one of shock, think the name is overall a good choice and one that actually symbolises the system
DCK Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 All is well if even you begin to like it Liking is a big word here Nah, yesterday I felt really bad about it and after a good sleep I see some good points about Wii (oh look I typed it myself). I'll never think it's a good name though.
Charlie Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I'm growing used to using threads that have been around for a long time already and locking all the new ones made [locked] Use the "what the hell" thread please
