wii or revolution?

Post by Jstar1 »

The original name of wii was revolution and I think its a lot better than wii

wii sounds really gay and I read online that the CEO (or some executive guy) said that wii was supposed to mean "we" as in "we all of us" or "we the whole family"

the reason and name is lame in my opinion

they shold have kept revolution

if you look carefully, you'll notice that smesmefu sounds better than fafa, even tho fafa is smaller so the person that hears it is easier like
"wtfux"
than with smesmefu,
i personally like smesmefu better tho

Hmm, okay. So why is Apple named Apple? Maybe because IBM, DEC, Cincom and Tesseract sounded like the names of evil corporations at the time? Now doesn't Apple sound a lot more usable to the layperson?

Same thing with the Wii. The Wii is for everyone, not just gamers. It's short and easy to remember. People who used to call everything a Nintendo know what a Wii is.

I think Wii is better than "revoloution". It sounds gay when you ask people to play. You need something short. Nothing more that 3 syllables.
