So Nintendo named their new system the "Wii". Anybody have any thoughts on this?

I can't believe that name. It is really stupid, which is a shame because of the innovative controller that no one will get to use because the same was so dumb. If the graphics suck everyone will be calling it the Nintendo Flea. Buyers will be termed "Wii Suck". Or they went Wii Wii Wii all the way back to the store to buy a real console.

I can agree that it's a bad name, but we got used to iPod, Google, Napster, and Blu-Ray, right?

The name doesn't matter too much. If Adriana Lima's name was actually Bryant Gumbel, you'd still want to "enjoy" her, right?

Aren't you the same guy that looked up an old ass thread and got an xbox 360 too in General?

Trolling on Christmas. Not even Christmas gets a break.

Looking back on this negative 2006 thread, in light of over 100 million Wii console sales since then, is enlightening.

Thanks old thread bumper!
