I bet they have had to make an automatic reply for emails like yours because they have recieved so many.
I won't accept it, but I guess I'll have to deal with it until they figure out that no one really likes it.

Why did you put my name in Nintendo of America? I'm not Nintendo of America! Lol, and yeah, I caught that. :roll:

As if you weren't expecting automated responses? Just because Nintendo made the most money in the sixth generation doesn't mean they can affors to have a million people monitoring a million computers to take on the billiokajillions of hate/confusion mail headed for their wii.

Methinks the little addition to the sig is nice, Sky. Doing the same....

AS SUPREME AND ULTIMATE RULER OF THE UNIVERSE I COMMAND EVERYONE WHO STILL HAS FAITH IN NINTENDO TO PLACE SUPPORT FOR WII IN THEIR FORUM SIGNATURES, HOWEVER SMALL!

I placed support for Nintendo to make up a better name. Wii is pretty fun to make fun of though, so maybe they should keep it.

Nice to see your change of heart, NES-fanatic. Its really a lot like what happened when the controller for the Wii was revealed. Plenty of people were unpleasantly shocked for a couple days, and then started liking it. I personally love the logo for the Wii. And the name really does have marketing potential, as you can actually use it in various ways in a sentence.

I also think the logo looks a lot like those diagrams that airplanes would use to show different rows of seats. There's two people sitting in airplane seats in this logo, see it? :P

Haha, I was just jumping on the "I see obscure random crap in the logo" bandwagon. Perhaps I should've added a :P to show my sarcasm.

That's what I said! But to make it more realistic, the second head may be a huge wang.

Face it guys, the name is bad. And it will be ridiculed until the X-Box 720 and the PS4 come out. Maybe their next system will be Puup, who knows? But Wii? That sounds like a shot in the foot for Nintendo, to me.
