Your response, "No, it's too out there now, they won't change it."

Sorry man, you were wrong...Just admit it so I can resume my salting.


Whatever you say man... I don't remember that conversation.

Either way... the Wii Revanaut is going to be a must buy for me.

Note: if you understood that, you're a geek... just like me!

I don't get it.

RivaOni - Yeah, it means pee here too.

I'm impartial, it's just a name, the system will be the same. Good on Nintendo for not taking the name seriously. After all, we wouldn't want it to be called "Nintendo 5" would we? Seriously, PS4 better not be called "Playstation 4".

For the record the Play Station was always called Play Station, even back on the drawing boards as the Nintendo Play Station SNES add-on.

You know GAAZ... I think it may have been me that you had the conversation with. I've gone on "record" saying that I didn't think they were gonna change the name.

*shrugs*

In any case...

And if you get a bunch of different little groups of people in the same room and one person asking if they Wii, you get a response like "Yes, Wii Wii! Smile

And now for some reason Animaics has popped into my head. The one with the French guy with "PP" on his shirt.

I'm not thrilled with the name, and will likely continue calling it the Revolution anyway. So will most of the people I know. I don't see Nintendo changing it back though, they're usually not about losing face and admitting they made a stupid decision.

I'm still sold on the system regardless.
