Ahora oficialmente el Nintendo Revolution cambia de nombre, se llama Nintendo Wii. Jajajajajaj!!!!… WTF??

Como todos se imaginarán, un nombre tan ridículo provocó discusiones en Slashdot realmente divertidas. He aqui algunas de mis favoritas:

Just like the marketing guy who coined the “Touching is good…” slogan for the NDS, the guy who came up with this and thought it was clever needs to be a bit more in-touch (pun intended) with American culture.

Just like parents thought twice about buying a product for their child that kept telling you how good it was to “touch”, it’s going to be hard for self-respecting gamers to ask for a “Wii”. And God-help us when the 16-year-old behind the counter at Wal-Mart explains to the nervous parents how the NDS will interface with the Wii, so the product with the catch-phrase “Touching is good” can be used to interface with your…”Wii.”

I love Nintendo, and I think the new console is going to rock - but naming it “Wii” is like naming your kid Richard when your last name is Head; you’re just gimping them unnecessarily from the start.

O estos:

This goes a long way to putting to rest all that crap about Nintendos only being made for kids…

So does this mean that all the games are going to be appended with Wii? Super Mario Wii, Zelda Wii, Metroid Wii? Or even worse Madden Wii? This has got to be the worst product name since the Kia Smegma…

This is actually great news. See, every time Nintendo does something with a console, there is always one really stupid thing about it…

Y las definiciones, jajajaja. Wii se pronuncia identico a Wee.
