But Wii is not even funny, really. It sounds puny, and I think that's really the only problem.

Please stop trying to defend it, and it'll blow over all the quicker... Please! :/

I'm used to it now.

Joking aside (meaning the sprout aside), I am used to the name now.

Heck, it's a decent name.

I just wonder if the name was a genuine oversight by Nintendo or a deliberate ploy. My conclusion is it has to be a deliberate ploy. A massive company like this surely couldn't be so incompetent to overlook something like this, or maybe it's just arrogance - we don't care what the rest of the world think?

And Wii is a bad bad name. Very bad.

This response is approximately two weeks old now and all flaws in it have been pointed out many times. Subject has been discussed to death and most if not all people are over it now.

It's strange because I'm totally used to it now, but I began telling her about Wii Sports and we both just fell about laughing!

I think those kind of moments will always pop up (the mention of "Wii pie" at the end of EG's Nintendo coverage, for example). But in itself, I'm warming to the name Wii.
