Would sales be better if Wii U was called Wii V

Honestly almost everything with the Wii name sounds like a Wii add-on (maybe with the exception of Wii 2) due to the Wii having many add-ons.

Perfectly stated.

Only "Wii 2" while using the "Wii" moniker gives the impression it is something more than an add on.    Either Wii 2 or a new moniker entirely should have been put forth.

Simply poor marketing research with the name.   5 minutes with a few casual gamers and they'd have come to the conclusion the name does not aptly describe the console as a successor to the Wii.

 

what about super wii?  Do you think people would think its an updated wii (ie. not next gen one).

 

I think they should have called it Nintendo Frozen and put peach on the box and mke her look like she is singing.
