156 1 May 2006 - 3:19    Dereck Goolsby-Bearsong : Hey Nintendo! "Hey baby, do you want to touch my wii?" "the two kids who brought over there wii's and played with them all night long." "It's not the size of your wii that matters, it's how you use it". Don't you think that's a little too sexual? MAKE IT THE REVOLUTION AGAIN!

151 30 Apr 2006 - 12:34    William : I think that Wii is a pathetic name in comparison with the Revolution, and I cannot stand to see what will be such an awesome system get made fun of for having a ridiculous name.
150 30 Apr 2006 - 9:13    Churromonkey : Wii the people, in order to form a more perfect union, support this petition against the Wii of nintendo. For never shall we travel to a friends house to play with their Wii, or have to puchase a game for our Wii, or Never, shall we EVER, have to connect our Wiis with other anonymous persons around the world in which we live. Long live the revolution!
149 30 Apr 2006 - 7:57    Ken : Wii need to stand together against the self-destructive ways of Nintendos marketing department
148 30 Apr 2006 - 6:58    James : i'm afraid of what my parents will say when i tell them i'm going to my friend's house to play with his Wii.
147 30 Apr 2006 - 4:43    Thomas : The revolution was a great name but even though I love the big N the new name Wii makes me want to go buy a PS3 instead.
146 30 Apr 2006 - 4:13    Fredrick : it is a stupid name an d i wont buy embarresing products, even if they're dirt cheap and the best. nintendo wii want you to go F*** yourselfs ..cos Wii dont care wat Wii stands for. *the consumer* Rev was an awesome name.
145 30 Apr 2006 - 4:10    Graham : because the Rev was a much better name, make Wii in Asia ..and market it as The Rev in the English Speaking countries. eg: Vauxhall Nova, nice name for a car ..unless you're spanish. It means doesnt go in spanish ..hence it failed. Nintendo ..want to repeat the mistake? ********es.

142 30 Apr 2006 - 1:28    Casey : Wii is a stupid name. The double i will always make people think urine, not the pronoun we, because the slang word for urine is also spelled with a double vowel.
141 30 Apr 2006 - 1:24    MntnD3w : because wii is the stupidest name ever. Nintendo might as well have named it "crap on a stick"
140 29 Apr 2006 - 21:31    dean : if you want to call it wii, i will eat a baby...a human baby
139 29 Apr 2006 - 19:45    joel : Wii are not amused, Nintendo!
138 29 Apr 2006 - 12:22    Adam from Hartland, MI : Nintendo was right on with the name "Revolution." It meant that their new console would completely change the video game industry, but now that they've changed it, they've alienated practically all of their fans. How are they going to get more people to play video games, which is their main goal with this system, when they've changed the name into something so idiotic?
137 29 Apr 2006 - 11:33    Steve : One point to make. www.ouimagazine.com Oui is pronounced "Wee" much like Wii is. Parents aren't gonna buy there kids something they think is smut on first impression. Oui is a magazine company that produces smut and specifically the oui magazine is like a playboy. www.ouimagazine.com/oui Dumb idea Nintendo.
136 29 Apr 2006 - 10:59    Luc : Fire your marketing people who thought of this stupic name. Then take away the drugs they were on while thinking of this stupid name. Then beat them for thinking of this stupid name. My god, what were you all thinking.
135 29 Apr 2006 - 10:24    pqlamz000 : I like the idea, but "Wii" is really a bad name. However, it might be a fake name that nintendo has come up with in order to attract attention, as several sources have indicated that "nintendo wii" is currently NOT patented. Of course, there is always a chance that it IS the real name. At least "wiiing" will be the only english word with 3 consecutive letters...
134 29 Apr 2006 - 9:53    T-baggins : what kind of ****in stupid name is wii. nintendo dug their grave with the ****ty gamecube. and the wii will just close the coffin for them. a ****in ******** name for the system with the ******** controller. what a great way to continue your downward spiral
133 29 Apr 2006 - 9:49    soccerpmn : Honestly, anything would be better. You're a great company, but please, stop only trying to get little kid business before you go out of business :(
132 29 Apr 2006 - 9:47    orange_flamingo : I support this petition.
131 29 Apr 2006 - 9:37    Zx30 : Nintendo, this is to you. You own, you always have, your names have always been simple yet not dumb. But why Wii? i dont get it and it certainly sounds dumb. Im still going to buy your system, but now it sounds like a weaker console..
130 29 Apr 2006 - 9:30    Mishmashmaster : You know I'm finanlly getting use to the way it looks. It looks cool but Nintendo, atleast change the pronounciation to the Wi from WiFi, would be so much more friendly.
129 29 Apr 2006 - 9:23    Twelve : Wii need a revolution
128 29 Apr 2006 - 7:51    James Sanchez : I support this petition.
127 29 Apr 2006 - 5:22    Wii? : Change it back to Revolution.
126 29 Apr 2006 - 5:19    Tom : I like the simple name idea, but Wii is horrible. It must be changed.
125 29 Apr 2006 - 4:31    DL2235 : I support this petition. I mean, seriously, it's a revolution in gaming, right? Then why don't you just call it "Revolution"?
124 29 Apr 2006 - 4:03    vagn henning : I don't wanna wee next to my TV. Please change it back! Please?

121 29 Apr 2006 - 3:12    Taylor : Huge mistake. Conflicts with Intel's "Viiv." And sounds like "wee." Viva la revolution!
120 29 Apr 2006 - 1:29    Louis : Perhaps the big old N should go the way of Sega and just make games for Sony and MS... A sad day that will be indeed.

118 29 Apr 2006 - 0:16    Jay : A terrible name. It may be great for Japan but for Europe and America a really bad idea.

116 28 Apr 2006 - 23:56    dodge71 : I get what they're trying to do but PLEASE CHANGE IT! It's so VERY wrong. It means different things in different countries. Just read the forums on your own websites please Nintendo. Everyone's gonna take the Wii!
