I'd like to hear the reasoning behind this name before I judge.
The Wii was criticized too but it made sense because of the family-friendly approach of the console (hence, "we").

"Beem" sounds just like "Beam"
As in, the Nintendo Beem beams gameplay right to your screen attached to your controller.

Nintendo Beem. Beem.
This could be it, the final name

It has to be one of the lamest sounding names ever. Even "Stream" was a lot better

I hope not though it is a stupid name.



edited to remove an extra 't'

Erm, it's not any more stupider than the word "Wii", which of you can make lots of perverted jokes out of, along with the shape of the controller etc.

Beem seems like an alright name, don't think people will have a hard time trying to pronounce it and not many fanboys can make fun of that name unless they say "lul i beem all ova ur face with mah wiiner". Who knows. People will think of clever childish ways of making fun of it.

Even so, new variations are still emerging on the name even this late in the process. The most recent reports Game Informer is hearing, just two days before the show? It's possible the final name will be just a single word that everyone is already familiar with.

Nintendo.

Doesn't seem right.

You know what's funny, no matter what they call the system, it's still going to sell like hotcakes like the Wii did.

It doesn't matter if it's Beem, revolution, just Nintendo, nintendo boink, nintendo drunk or anything, we're all going to buy it.

I wonder what would happen if they called it the Nintendo Play Station...

I don`t know about this one. For me and my friends most of the time we called the NES just "Nintendo" and the SNES "Super Nintendo" so for me that wouldn`t be the best choice...

I kinda like the word "Stream" most from all the suggested names. Nintendo Stream... Even looks good and with a name like that you could do quite some things design-wise, though it could be misinterpreted for something like OnLive...
