You remember those hurtful 'Wee' jokes people made about the Wii?
Well i think it's safe to say that they're very rare now, probably because the people who joked have realized, "Wow, this gaming machine is selling more copies than the 360 and ps3, and is braking sales records. Maybe we shouldn't make jokes any more".
Nintendo were on to something with the brilliant name. To make something catchy, yet suitable. Nintendo were trying to make a name that would represent who the console was for: Everyone. Wii represents We as in us. The two i's could represent two people.
The revolution did sound cool, and it suited the look of the console, but it sounded hardcore, not casual.
To anyone who makes fun of the Wii's name, should be reminded of how popular and brilliant the Wii really is.
