I think it has to do with context. coming on this site and saying "hey, do you like The Wii?" everyone will know what you're talking about. You do that on the street, and other than odd looks, you might get someone going "do you like US..."

Putting nintendo in front makes people realize the context in which Wii is being used. that's all.

I added a word for you

Most people would therefore understand you now, and those that don't probably wouldn't know "Nintendo Wii" either.
