Nintendo Wii

[babs]

Dear god, imagine what Miyamoto's cameo on the E3 stage will be like


Won't someone think of the children!

edit: sorry, Wiiamoto

[Mayhem]

Blatently nicked from WotR, but funny... shopping in France...

Do you have any stock of the games console Wii?
Oui
Yes, Wii
Oui!
Wii?
Oui!!!

[Jebus]

They shoulda known everybody would take the piss/wii wii

It's STILL funny...bad for nintedo by great for wii. I mean me.

Why do I just want to run around screaming "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" at everyone now?

FROM GAMESTROKER:
"The wii is to be released worldwide all over your faces. The wii is set to blow your minds...this new wii will make you wee your pants...I've played with my wii every night ever since I got it...my wii never malfunctions...wii=love"

Seriously, will gaming articles ever be the same again?

[JamesS]

I guess it puts all those "Giz" jokes into perspective.

Can't wait for more news of Nintendo's Wii leaking out. No doubt there will be a flood of it at E3.

[Corrupt Rose]

This is the first games console release that I've actively had to think about what I'm writing so it doesn't look like I'm taking the... mickey and making cheap shots.

[squidman]

They'll change it before it's released, right? This can't be real. I must have accidently slipped into an alternate dimension or something. Don't they have... like.... people, who get paid massive buckets of money, to make sure people don't take the piss out of the names of their products?

The whole thing is just so very absurd.

[Concept]

That's awful.

Before people jump on my back... sorry, I much preferred the Revolution.

The Nintendo Wee? Oh, that's awful. Really awful.

[SubparMario]

Nin ten do, urine the game.

[Dezm0nd]

It's a terrible name yeah, not even a name you'd get use to like the gamecube. It's setup for ridicule and I hope to god people start pissing on Iwata when he walks on stage.

It does make me giggle though. teehee.

Headlines being

NINTENDO UNLEASH THEIR WII
WE WILL WEE ON THE REST OF YOU WITH OUR WII


Just imagine if it gets that Wee stained look of the SNES years due to lots of smoking around it... my god

"MY WII IS WEE COLOURED"

[Corrupt Rose]

In case nobody else has noticed it, look up 'Wee' on Wikipedia. Nintendo have a footnote.

[Concept]

I think they've done it for all the fanboy magazines "Nintendo wii's on the competition" etc. etc.

It can't be serious. It just can't.

[Kron]

[Iwata walks on stage]

"I hope you buy my wee"

Maybe something is lost in translation?

Actually thinking about it I hope this console doesn't have a splash screen when it starts up

[dc-arena]

I can't wait for Reggies speech.. He'll come on with a huge smile on his face knowing he has to explain the name.. Wii.. LOLZ

[Chief H]

The name does make me giggle like a girl as I read the press release marketing garb. Though maybe that's the point. Agreed: if Nintendo really wanted to make up a whole new word, they could've made one that sounds so much better than that.

[Kieran76]

For ****s sake, what a stupid name.
