[RUMOR]Project Cafe to be called "Beem"?

[pistone]

i dont think it would be BEEM
as a site say that the word BEEM is copy righted

BEEM

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...

People would still buy it.

Nintendo.

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...

I understand this, but if we're to be honest, the real name was the Nintendo Enertainment System. And heck, I bet these days you refer to it as the N.E.S. I know I do. I still call the SNES both S.N.E.S. and Super Nintendo. But I don't refer to any of their systems anymore as simply Nintendo.

And honestly I'd dig the name Nintendo, it would be the best of all the names I've heard so far (and that includes beem, stream, wii hd, wii 2, cafe, etc.)

On the other hand, it might be a) going back to their roots, or b) saying "yes, Nintendo is a household name, bitches. When people think 'home console', they say 'Nintendo'. Suck it." It would be a ballsy move. It all depends on how they play it.


I doubt that will be the name, though.

I swear these rumors are getting worse and worse as E3 approaches.

 

[AlanJohn]

Stream, Current, Beem etc.
E3 will have the answers to all of our questions.

How so?
You are not liking the rumoured Specs of the system? lol

 

[DeadLocked]

Omg. Please, please please no

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

Posts like ^ make me hope GBAtemp gets a Like Button soon

Please don't turn GBAtemp into Facebook.

OT: Stream better

 

[PolloDiablo]

Nintendo Temp

It doesn't sound too bad.

I like it better than Stream. On a side note, there is another rumor that claims Project Cafe will be called Nintendo.

I don't like how people are snooping around trying to ruin the surprise. It sort of ruins the whole "WOW!" factor gaming once had. It's like snooping around for Xmas presents. When that morning comes, you know you're giving them fake smiles, and it's hard to be excited when you unwrap it.

This has been reported on quite a bit recently.
http://www.google.co.uk/search?aq=f&so...q=nintendo+beem You may be right.

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.

I hate the name 'wii' as well.

 

[_Chaz_]

I still think the name's gonna get changed.

Revolution, anyone?

 

[Nujui]

I really don't give a crap what's it's called. I'm more wanting to know what it can do rather than if it get's named Beem or not.

Though, I do like this name Sam gave.

 

[Bladexdsl]

super mario Beem
metroid Beem
pokemon Beem

yeah i dont like it

with any luck beem will be the name of their new online system

 

[machomuu]

I still think the name's gonna get changed.

Revolution, anyone?

Here, here!

It's better than any of the ones we've had so far
