| 201 | Scott K | Nintendo had me totally cought up in the REVOLUTION. But today I lost faith. Wii is not a name that the American public will latch onto. Please change the name back to Revolution! I beg you as a long time Nintendo supporter! At least keep it Revolution for the US release!!! PLEASE! |
| 202 | Adam Miller | Why Nintendo why? I am as hardcore fan of Nintendo as anyone else on this earth, but why change such a good name like revolution into such a bad one like wii? |
| 203 | Austin | Nintendo,
This name will destroy your sales, ESPECIALLY among adult males.
It's THAT embarassing. |
| 204 | Anonymous | Please Nintendo, drop this product in favour of a dual processor version. The Wii Wii. |
| 205 | Anonymous | Wii is Okay...... For Japan.
But for America and maybe Europe...NO. Do what they did for the NES/ Famicom Have Different names for Different countries? |
| 206 | Matthew Dore | So now I have to buy games for the Nintendo Wii, ask my friends if they wanna play on my Wii and play Wii online? Nintendo. You're taking the p**s. |

| 216 | Anonymous | Rename it or KILL sales in all English speaking countries. Very simple. |
| 217 | Mark Sneddon | Nintendo stop shooting yourselves in the foot... |
| 218 | Anonymous | You're killing your company with a name change like that! It's like the parents who name their children " Sunshine " or " Poindexter ". they're just going to get beat up on the playground on a daily basis, no matter how cool they might really be. |
| 219 | Colby | Just stop it!! You will get over it once you get the system you will totally forget about the name. |
| 220 | Anonymous | I was always one of the first to defend Nintendo's next gen console when others doubted it. I am very fond of the system, but extremely concerned about Nintendo's decision to name the system the Wii. If they want to reach a large audience they have to realize that a strange name will turn many people away. |
| 221 | anthony | Ah Nintendo...and to think you had such a good name with Revolution. Sleek and to the point. However, when you need an entire paragraph to explain why you chose wii as a name, then is it really a good name? |
| 222 | Anonymous | I liked revolution. I hate Wii. This is a terrible move. Revolution is the best name for it. I hate this move by nintendo. Please change it back and realize your terrible mistake. |

| 226 | Anonymous | Marketing. Disaster. Period. |
| 227 | Dr. Breen | Wii as a name sucks. I want my Revolution back! |
| 228 | Jennifer Carruth | I do not want my children, my husband or myself playing a console that is named a slang term for male genetalia or urine. We will not be buying this console unless the name changes to a more child friendly one. |
| 229 | Kim | Wii sucks! |
| 230 | Andrei | "Wii" want revolution ! |
| 231 | Joshua | PLEASE change the name back! This will only hurt the console, Revolution was a great name! Wii will just repel people, because its strange and people tend to fear the strange and unknown, plus, if your american, it brings up alot of bathroom jokes... >_ |
| 232 | Nicolas | Japanese gamers are supposed to have trouble saying the "wii" sound. Real smart Nintendo, coming up with a name half your fanbase can't say easily while the other western half tries to avoid uttering it in public. |
| 233 | Terry | I think the biggest difference between this and the Dolphin being renamed to the Gamecube, was that nobody knew what the Dolphin looked like. There were no pictures at all. As soon as we found out what it looked like, it was called Gamecube, and yes, it looked like a cube. It was fitting. But everyone knew what the Revolution looked like before it's name changed. We even saw it's controller. When we see those things, we think of "Revolution". Changing the name now is like looking at a table, and having someone else tell you it is a chair. It is clearly a table... |

| 235 | Anonymous | who wants a Urine machine?????Bring back the Revolution!!! Viva La Revolution!! |
| 236 | Pam | Revolution was a perfect name! If you wanted to change it, why in the world change it to 'Wii'?? I mean, does this sound right? "Lets play -insert game name here- on my Wii" |

| 247 | Yadaman | Nintendo, I've been a HUGE fan of yours since my first video game, Pokemon Red, 10 or so years ago. Now you drop this load of shit on us? I'm more of a Nintendo fan than anyone I know, and even I hate this name. PLEASE change it, not only for me, but for all. |
