DevsBro 12/06/18 1:02:01 PM #9:	Both were bad but at least Revolution was a word that people knew. I mean literally calling it Revolution is barely a step up from naming it the AWESOMEBOX. Which is no doubt why it was always just a working title or code name while they came up with the offcial name. But then they crapped out "Wii." --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 <cite>DevsBro posted [p:913646211] in Better con...

That's a bad argument. The Wii name hurt it more than anything because it seemed like either an add on or a revision of the Wii, and the casual crowd wasn't likely to buy something they thought they already owned. The name "Wii" and its branding was actually huge for the Wii itself; from the "we (wii) would like to play" marketing, to the two i's being representative of two people together, it was advertised as and succeeded at being a family/friend oriented console, which is why it sold insane numbers to a diverse demographic --- Posted with GameRaven 3.5.1 <cite>MarqueeSeries posted [p:913652301] in Better con...
