Protip: It's called the Wii. Not the Nintendo Wii.

It's the first Nintendo console not to include Nintendo in it's name.

 


That's nonsense. That would mean sth only if NA was the only place where Nintendo released home consoles, but it's not.

Famicom, Super Famicom didn't have Nintendo in their name at all. I doubt Gamecube had Nintendo in its name too.

Actually, it's not clear for Gamecube, as Nintendo is written above Gamecube on games, but in a faded font, to differentiate from the system name. So my take is that it was not part of the name. Depends on interpretation I guess.
