Let them know (http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Wii)
I dont see a problem with it.
Its got a grown up name, so its not all about the games.
Tbh these online petition sites all have a common flaw. How are the ones targetted supposed to know about it. Not they will give it much notice.
Imo I think the main reason they gave gone with a name like wii is that is a word that is not constrained by any language barrier. :?
Like Gif, err Cif. :evil:
tbh, i would love a nintendo flange...
When i first heard about it i was annoyed and disapointed however after reading so much about it online it was obivously a good choice... the amount of publicity it has already recieved and the fact that it is something people wont forget.
As people that have worked in a gamestore will confirm, people just dont understand / remember console names..
"I want a gamestation please"
"Urrr thats the name of the store, do you mean playstation / Xbox / Gamecube etc"
"no, i want a gamestation"
I cant see that happening with the Wii
its not as bad as people make out, its novel and gets across nintendos idea of what the console should be.... id buy one regardless of the name.
Im starting to like it, when you think about it most consoles have naff names;
Gameboy
Xbox
Playstation
etc
Some tongue-in-cheek advertising would be cool imo.
"oH NOES SOMEONE Wiied into my room!!!!!!!"""
Ive had that happern way too many times had house parties!
Im not going to buy one anyway so it dont make any difference to me :D
I was going to buy one anyway and the Wii name wont change that at all... so looks like atleast we even out
