They could have called it Nintendo Poo and I'd still buy it.

*falls out of chair*

I love you.

Awe shucks, I wuv you too boo!

Dammit to hell, I don't need another game console, but Metroid Prime 3 is going to be on the Wii, so now I'm morally and ethically obligated to buy it. Grrrr...

trachalio April 27 2006, 20:10:44 UTC

And the Wii is gonna be cheap like Borscht! It's probably going to be the first (and last) console I'll ever buy at launch.

This is one of the many reasons I love having you on my friends list - I would've never known about this name change otherwise.

As for the change itself? Meh, but hell - won't change the quality of the system :P

I only found out because a buddy of mine works with Nintendo and I obsessively read Kotaku and Joystiq :P

"People" are really just whiney little bitches. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

trachalio April 27 2006, 19:53:23 UTC

oooh, snap indeed!

True. If you were going to buy a Revolution you're still gonna buy one even if it's called the Wii now.

But ofcourse they aren't liking the name it's retarded. But it's not that big a deal anyways because I have a feeling this is going to be the last home console for Nintendo. Personally they should have stopped with the Gamecube after that flop.

trachalio April 27 2006, 23:35:07 UTC

I'd have to argue that one. The gamecube has been a big success for Nintendo. They haven't lost a single penny off the sucker.

nathanderryking April 28 2006, 00:10:23 UTC

that's totally true. The Gamecube has been successful. Sometimes people get all caught up in the "number of units sold" and fail to realize that PROFIT is where it's at. And the gamecube has made a healthy profit.

Nintendo understands that it doesn't need to dominate the market in order to succeed. In that regard, they are like Apple. And Microsoft with it's Xbox is like... uh... like Microsoft.

_infernox_ April 28 2006, 03:09:56 UTC

An it never will dominate the market. I mean Link, Mario and Samus can only take them so far.

This is the best name ever. Why? Because now wii get to call the controllers "Wiimotes"! :D "Revmote" didn't have the same ring to it.

trachalio April 27 2006, 23:34:09 UTC

Good point! :P

Elmer Fudd style. Ooh, yeah, baby!
