wow, people are really retarded... you're telling me that you WON'T buy this just because of it's name? you would have to an idiot to make that decision. I like wii.
I just realised myself, like many others on this board, have been though the 5 phases of Wii.
1. Non-acceptance : "This can't be true"
2. The moment of doom : "Holy Cow, it is!"
3. Rejection : "What a horrible name! Sounds like my wee!" [insert joke]
4. Logical Thinking : "It's still gonna be kickass."
5. Acceptance : "You know, Wii actually sounds pretty cool."
I'm at 5, and probably the hidden 6th : " Damn, I want one NOW. "
Wii for teh Wii-n.
If you gotta defend it, its not a good thing.
If you gotta explain it, its not a good thing.
If it reminds you, even for a second, of an excremetory function, it's not a good thing.
If it makes your dad think you're gay when you ask for one for Christmas, it's not a good thing.
This is not a good thing.
Look guys I don't really care what Nintendo names it, if its an awesome game system I'm still probably gonna buy it. But to most people, the name will matter.
The problem is - you're having to defend it. You're having to explain it. See my post above - this is not a good thing. Better get used to defending and explaining, too, cuz with a name like "Wii" it aint ever gonna stop.
i'll just explain to them that when you use the controler and turn it sideways in a fps then you can cap fools gangsta style. In the END gameplay is all that matters
