| 152 | Brent Oxford | Viva La Revolution!! |
| 153 | Cristian Cismas | Wii don't like Wii. |
| 154 | Z80a | try something like nintendo 2 (as revolution can be considered a follow up to original nes as uses the same earth shattering,market shifting strategy) |

| 157 | Mike Sharp | This one was sposed to be the one where they got everything right - WHY does there always have to be a huge problem? What was wrong with the Revolution!? |
| 158 | James Zook | Give us a Revolution Nintendo , not some Wii! |

| 160 | Stephen Hac | Nintendo, American consumers will not take "Wii" seriously. Please give us the Revolution we deserve. |

| 162 | Anonymous | "Wii" is an incredibly lame name for a gaming system. Seriously. |
| 163 | ben ehlers | I love the premise for the syste, guys, but the name "Wii" is wiilly stupid. D'oh.
See what kind of infantile joke you guys are in for? |
| 164 | Gabriel | we from Brazil loved the name revolution, and even ha's an official representation for Nintendo here (since 2003 when the contract with the brasilian Gradiente ends) we don't like the name "wii" I think that's will not change the image that nintendo were a "childrens only company"..
we hope that's that horrible name changes back to Nintendo Revolution. |
| 165 | Alex Rodriguez | Just when it look like they were going in the right direction, nice looking system, potentially revolutionary controller, and some cool game announcements, they go and fail with such a key part of the marketing. Didn't the big N learn anything from releasing GameCube in Purple? Please change the name, the two i's is good, the word choosen is not. |
| 166 | Aristotelean | Please change the name - it's embarassing and reminds me of a child taking a piss. |
| 167 | nintendofaithful | Nintendo, Are you serious?
You said you wanted to make your next system less "kiddie".
Sometimes I wonder why I still stick up for your company. I can already hear the s**t that my friends are going to say. I dont know how you expect people defending "wii"
Get a Friggin clue. Not five years later... NOW! |
| 168 | michael clarke | Bad, bad, bad. Awful, in fact. Ugh. |
| 169 | Dan | "Wii" is not a word that anybody wants to say, and the a double-i dipthong is stupid market-ese. However, the idea of a strange, iconic one-syllable word for a game console is ambitious and cool. A better iconic sound than "wee" would be "see". This sound has the connotations of Nintendo's "Blue Ocean" philosophy, sight (and understanding), and the word "yes" in Spanish which everyone is familiar with. Hey Nintendo, how about one of the following: "Si", "See", "Se", "Cee", "Ce", "Ci", or even just "C"? I would play C. Do you C? |
| 170 | Jake Grimes | Bad move. |
| 171 | Anonymous | I wanted a Nintendo Revolution, but this has made me think differently. I don't really want to say, "Hey, let's go play my Wii!" |
| 172 | Caleb Backus | It is very sad indeed that just when nintendo began making a comeback, it committed suicide. Change it now!!! |
| 173 | Nicholas | I'm Signing this as a supporter of the "wii" name. If some one seriously thinks an online petition will change a (now)corporate trademark, you're severly mistaken. |
| 174 | Pat | Wii blows. Not buying a wii. |

| 177 | Sean C | I can take it or leave it, but I prefer the Revolution. |
| 178 | Anonymous | I respect that the name has meaning and is pretty creative, and I appreciate that it's unusual and different from the competition. However, IT'S PRONOUNCED WEE! It sounds utterly ridiculous. |
| 179 | Darren | Kyoto....Wii have a problem. Get real Nintendo you almost got the Nintendo supporters up from the kiddy table.....now Wii are back there. |
| 180 | Steven Banas | We can only hope that at E3 Nintendo sees their mistake. |
| 181 | Tales Peggion | Yes to the Revolution! |
| 182 | Kyle Yancey | This has got to be a joke. You do realize how completely inappropriate this name is. I'm sorry, but there's no point in me buying on of these if your going to name it wii. |
| 183 | Nick | |
| 184 | Anonymous | please choose another name, NOT Wii. Wii is like urine in english. |
| 185 | emultra | wii, will be fun. whee! the revolution is not an apple that falls when it is right. you have to make it fall. |
| 186 | Nathan | The fact alone that the name was laboriously researched and crafted by marketers begins to deteriorate the delicate divide that Nintendo has from the rest of the video game industry, and industry in general... Nintendo has always been my bastion of security where I could get away from that stuff, and seeing this press release is deeply disturbing. Revolution is more fun! |
| 187 | Ben S | Hmm, the name is about as dull as a ditch of dishwater. Utterly uninteresting. Next next gen- wii 2. Yes, wii 2 want you to change the name, nintendo... |
| 188 | Anonymous | Someone was paid far too much money to think this up |
| 189 | Wii Poo | Poo |
| 190 | Anonymous | Call it Wii in Japan maybe, but Revolution would fare better in the west. |
| 191 | SaiC | They must be taking the PI$$. I can't go in a shop and ask to have a piss (I mean Wii). |
| 192 | Said what ? | I'm just really curious to find out which ivy-league-educated suit came up with this name...
I'd Wii all over him/her if I could. |

| 194 | Anonymous | Ah come one, this is just BEGGING to be laughed at...
how can you go into a shop and seriously say "can i have a wii please"?
Revolution sounds WAY better and not embarrassing... |
| 195 | chris | i finally thought they might have a chance this time, but now people will see this in the stores and be embarased to be near it, they will havev to make an adults only section in electronics botique to sell this thing. p.s. im going go into the sticker business , my first project will be a sticker that says "revolution" to go over the wii |
| 196 | M@ UK | Nice try Ninty, but Revolution is SOOOOO much better, please change it back. Or invent something new, but not WEEEEE |
| 197 | Bill Brasky | Please change the name back to Revolution. I'm hoping this was a joke, but April Fool's was 27 days ago. |
| 198 | paul wieland | wii is a terrible name. Revolution is a home run. If it's not broke, don't fix it! |
| 199 | NICK ELLIOTT | |
| 200 | Cain West | This is the final straw for me. As of this day on I shall never be a nintendo fanboy again. All I need now is for the PS3 controller to change to be like the X-box S controller and I'm set for 5 more years. |
