Revolution probably would have been the better name. Especially when you think about the motion controls

no they fucking killed it with the name.

shit sounded terrible at first, but was completely natural by the end of it.

only 1 syllable. think of all the time they saved us.

10/10--surprising at first but quickly normalize. would keep in a custom timeline. top tier brand name.

Wii U is just the dumbest name with a U after it. Doesn't make it any more or less dumb.

Has nothing to do with how successful the console was. I am old enough I remember hearing about Nintendo Revolution, and being disappointed when the name changed.

Whats with this recent meme fad? Just a rebranded Slowpoke format from the 2000s? If youre gonna bring back one of those do bachelor frog or socially awkward penguin.

Yeah Nintendo would be out of business with both posts which is fine. Defending it that aggressively is weird tho
