I've been fumbling the name around in my head for 24 hours now and I guess my stance still hasn't changed. It just sound ridiculous. I'm trying to picture myself a few months from now walking into an EBgames and telling the clerk 'I would like to pre-order a Wii'. I know that we both know exactly what is meant but it sounds so absurd. Yes it is different but I'm of the mentality that different doesn't always equal good. I'm still excited for the console and I still plan on getting on but I'm having a hard time envisioning myself talking about it to my nongaming buddies at work. If Nintendo wants to appeal to the masses, they should name it something that the masses can take seriously. As it stands, it sounds like a video game system developed for grade-schoolers.
