Yep, Nintendo just announced that they renamed their console to "Wii", pronounced "We".

It's not a rename, actually. Revolution was just a codename. I agree though, wii is definetly an odd name, even if they explained its meaning quite well.

There's a hole in the sky through which things can fly.

That's entirely true, because the Playstation 3 and XBox 360 will (like usual) dominate anything Nintendo releases. So they can name it wiin0r if they want to, they're still going to have no market dominance.

Except that most(hint: I didn't say all) games that come out on PS3 and Xbox360 are released on all platforms. Most people that buy a Nintendo will buy it for the Nintendo only games.

When it comes right down to it though, you can't do this with PS3 and Xbox360 logos:

Perhaps it was given this name so that the other console fanboys can't really say "wii sucks"

That's a distinct possibility.

Nintendo Wii Product Ideas... Smile

The Wii-Wii: The Wii system connection package, comes with "system link" like parts/cables. (the dash between symbolizes the connection of the two Wii systems)

The Wireless Wii-Wii: Same as The Wii-Wii, but is the wireless solution.
