Nintendo has officially announced the name of the Revolution console - the Nintendo Wii.
The announcement comes ahead of the E3 games show where we were expecting the name to be revealed. We still hope to find out more about the console there, maybe even getting to play it on the show floor!
Nintendo had this to say:
Introducing … Wii.
As in “we.”
While the code-name “Revolution” expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer.
Wii will break down that wall that separates video game players from everybody else.
Wii will put people more in touch with their games … and each other. But you’re probably asking: What does the name mean?
Wii sounds like “we,” which emphasizes this console is for everyone.
Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.
Wii has a distinctive “ii” spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people gathering to play.
And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of video games that sets it apart from the crowd.
So that’s Wii. But now Nintendo needs you.
Because, it’s really not about you or me.
It’s about Wii.
And together, Wii will change everything.
We can't even comment. I mean... honestly. Err... Your thoughts. In the forum. Please.
