Wii Eww.

That being said, Wii was already the worst name ever.

Wii was a bad name, Kinect was pretty sucky at first too. Basically when you get use to them they suck less.

But that logo aint ever gonna get better.

Kinect is a good name. It's simple and to the point. But *hits head on the wall* Wii U.........oh boy what a mistake. I seriously do not see this name being attractive to hardcore players at all.



 

        

Its bad. Nintendo needs to not milk the names of their successful systems. 3DS, now Wii U. This must stop.

Little about the WiiU is attractive to the core, Nintendo are just joking about that.

I think Kinect sucked because we got used to calling it Natal.  It's just the combination of Kinetic and Connect.  Not too bad.  I actually don't mind Wii U that much, either.  I'm sure they could have done better but they made Wii a brand name like DS took over for the Gameboy brand.  I'd have called it Wii Advance or Super Wii or Wii 64 or something but when it comes out, I'm just gonna call it "The U" just like I plan on calling PS Vita either "PSV" or "The V".



Marketing wise, Wii was a terrific name. Wii U however, I'm not feeling it so much.



I hoped they would drop the Wii name and be more innovative.

A name can't really be innovative now can it?
