E-mpire member poll: Wii

[Sontaku Igumi]

I'm gonna have to agree here. I'll come to accept the name in time, but I'll never really like it. I mean, Revolution was such a great name. The Rev. It just jived. I guess it's just mostly the let down.

[D3adcell]

I can live with it if I have to. But I much rather prefer the revolution.

[Sontaku Igumi]

I swear, as soon as I get it, I'm sandpapering Wii off of hte side of it and etching Rev on there.

[Boggy700]

I kinda liked the name at first, and now I really like it.
I've said 'Wii' in conversation a few times now, and the only difference between that and saying 'we' is that saying 'Wii' makes me smile a little.
And not because of stupid 'wee' jokes.
Those are not very funny at all.
Nor are they creative.
They are just very childish.

You people wanted Nintendo to lose their "kiddy" image and they are.
Now it's your turn.

...and have already heard a few people saying they're not buying the system as a result.

Those people are extraordinarily shallow.
They're cutting their noses off to spite their face.
That's all it amounts to.

...so bring on the Wii wii....could not help myself....LOL...so lame.

And I'll NEVER "come around" to liking the name "Wii". It is lame, stupid, retarded, dumb, asinine, and just plain old crappy.

What, like 'Wii Wii' jokes?

[Sandman]

I don't have a problem with the name, but I'll click "Hate it" because I can see it becoming a total marketing failure. They're trying too hard to be the next "iPod"

[Lynk Former]

I refuse to accept the name. I'm buying a Nintendo Revolution.

[Lucent Beam]

I picked 'love it' cause it's just so gosh-darn fun to make fun of.

[venomv]

Must I say anything? I'm still holding out for it to be a marketing ploy. And wether you guys think it is stupid or not doesn't change that fact that if a name causes a significant people to not wanna buy something, that name needs to be changed.

[HolyPaladin]

I'm not sure what I should choose. I passionately hated the name, at first, but had got over that within the first twenty-four hours. On the other hand, I still don't love it, and don't know that I ever will. I don't see a middle-of-the-road option, and can't decide which way I marginally lean more to.

[mark297]

i dont love it but im closer to loving it than hating it.

[neo999955]

I hate it. The name makes me want to hide the system in a corner or something. I won't of course, but the name is just terrible. The fact that I will have to tell people that I'm going to go play with my Wii is something I'll always curse Nintendo for, especially in public.

Just say,
"I'm going to go play Nintendo" instead.

When you say "love it or hate it" are you refering to the console it's self or the consoles' name ? As for the console, I have, Not a single thing, against it. I think it's super sweeeet. As for the name ("Wii"). "I'm lovin' it" I really like the name. I mean, I can make soooo many joke with it. I guess you can say it stands out

I think it would be interesting to poll our members and see who supports the new name change of Nintendo's newest system.

[Tael]

I like it but don't love it.

[PornSharK]

I really dont mind the name now, for me its funny so I couldn't hate it for the name.

The system's still more important to me, I love it

[Mathx]

I don't love it or hate, is there a "I don't care" choice?

[Ravster]

Needs more options.


'Its ok'

[Shadow19]

At first I was like WTF?, but now I'm used to it so I like it. I can't wait to buy a Wii.

[The Dude]

Are you kidding!?!? Any excuse to talk about my Wii is a good thing. Imagine all the cheesey one liners we can use to pick up girl gamers with.

"Oh so you like Mario? Well why dont you come over and you can play with my Wii"
