does the name really matter,over at N sider most of the people are fine with it,I think it's a japanese-ish name. They also might release info to why they called it that.

The info already exists, follow the frontpage links at nintendo.com.
And I heard a rumour that the sound "we" doesn't exist in Japenese.

"Wii" is the dumbest name for a video game system I've ever heard. Any chance Nintendo had of attracting the older crowd to this system is now shot. I know people (myself not included) that wouldn't be caught dead playing something called "Wii."
I'll buy it anyway, though. There's always Super Mario Wii to look forward to. (God, I hope they don't call it that.)

Well, in Canada, you say what cupboard you want opened and take what you want to the counter.

A joke from another forum: I'm still looking forward to Super Smash Bros. Wiilee!
Or what about the re-release of The Legend of Zelda: Wiind Waker!
*Du-dum-chi!*

The new name is kinda weird when you talk french.. (I live in Quebec.. (in Canada) and most of my friends talk french.)
Lol. The other day I told my friend (in french): "Yo! Guess what's the official name of the Revolution!" He asked me what it was.. and I told him it's called Wii. He told me: "Are you serious?" and then I told him: Oui (French for Yes, which sounds exactly like Wii)
GET IT!?! ... No? ok.. never mind then...

I think I would rather know it as the "yes" then as...well, you know.
