Much like they would have probably said "Xboxes" if they had stolen a ton of 360s.

But the original XBox was discontinued a long time ago so it's not an issue....

I saw this consumer confusion coming a mile away. It's the 3DS all over again. I blame Nintendo. Just naming it the Wii 2 would have been a much better name.

i think a new name altogether would have been better

I think they're definitely trying to replicate the success of the Wii to a large extent, and calling it the Wii 2 would of been the easiest way to do that. Nobody would ask if it were some kind of addon/peripheral etc. They'd instantly know it's Nintendo's next console.

yea i'm sure they are, but they have to recreate Wii success in another gemic. otherwise they'll have watever Wiiu success is.
