Should Nintendo have dropped the 'Wii' name from its next-gen console?

Are you kidding? Pretty much everyone I know who owns a Wii has lots of fun memories and loves the console. I'd say that the Wii has the best average word of mouth of any console, really. 

From what I've seen/heard IRL, I'd say it has the worst word of mouth by a long shot

That's anecdotal. Wii's sales in the first few years, though, aren't. Unless you claim that dozens of millions of people heard bad things about the console that was a huge phenomenon and still bought it, which is silly and desperately trying to argue against the evidence.

Your right, it was a huge phenomenon. People were going mad to buy them because it was the 'in' thing to do at the time and so they could experience motion controls. That doesn't change the fact that once the people bought it they may have seldomly used it and regretted buying it once the novelty wore off.
