Lynk Former Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Yeah, I really loved coming into a thread started by a rumour where apparantly someone knew "Mike from Marketting" who worked for Nintendo of America and he didn't like the name. So obviously that must mean that there's conclusive proof that Nintendo don't like the name Wii, say they've made a huge mistake and will hold a press meeting tomorrow telling us that they'll change the name... ...and people in here believed it. Well in that case, guess what! Kensuke from Sony R&D said that the PS3 controller will have force feedback capabities and Sony will be announcing it in the next week or two! How great is that Now go! Believe this without question and form opinions off something that is obviously false and then spread it around the internet twisting it around so it appears to be the truth as far as anyone else knows. XD Sorry... I had to do that, I couldn't resist.
BongoBob Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 No no no, you got it all wrong. The meeting is about bagels, and the combining of all 3 next gen consoles into one super console, the Playstation Wii60...but mostly the bagels... Mmmmm...bagels....
Lynk Former Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 ...A bagel powered Playstation Wii60?!... DEAR GOD MAN THAT'S BRILLIANT!
El Sitherino Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 PLAYSTATION WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE60! ... The thought of a thousand little kids saying that **** has officially scared me into mentally enduced sterility.
BongoBob Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 I need someone with 1337 photoshop skills to make me a picture of a Bagel Powered Playstation Wii60. Then make it into an av/sig for use
toms Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 They clearly stated 'pronounced as we' when the name was announced. We as in, unite casual gamers, seems a much better name than a question. Seems to me something like "Why" would emphasise questions such as "why the hell buy this" "why does this exist" in a negative way. I know they stated "pronounced as we" but that doesn't mean it doesn't read better as Wi. And make at least as much sense. I think Wi is reasonably daft, but its still better than the surreal logic they have behind We. Not that it really matters much...
Alegis Posted July 1, 2006 Posted July 1, 2006 but its still better than the surreal logic they have behind We. The message is still "we", unite (casual) people which is the primary goal. Not that surreal. Writing it like 'Wii' serves several nice purposes. Special, unique, stands out Easy to remember (According to the pres, many casuals don't know GBA= Gameboy Advance etc etc, keep it simple) The 2 "i"s stand for the wiimotes Ah well. Enough I reckon ^^ This rumor did remind me of those peeps who used to forward those "ohmigod hotmail will close down if you dont forward this mail to 10ppl !" oh man I'm in a grumpy mode. Not a good thing after SHEXAH GRADUATION
Captain Wilson Posted July 1, 2006 Posted July 1, 2006 Hmm, just realized it sounded like "Oui." So Fenchies might like a yes. But they prefer no, much to the EU's shame im sorry Name doesnt realy matter to much, but this bagel powered device intriuges me...
Ray Jones Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 *pokes Captain Wilson in the ear* I'm sorry, too I wonder if there will be a cracked version so that you can substitute the bagel with a standard 110/220V plug or something. That'd be cool. XD
•-BLaCKouT-• Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 1) A bagel-powered machine? Are you barking? No matter how good the machine is, it'll still feel like a waste of bagels surely? I wouldn't buy a dvd player that runs on beer, no matter how good the picture is; 'cos when I've got the beer, it automatically looks better 2) If they were to change the name, or create a new console called the Nintendo Power-Up, would I be childish for laughing at the N-Pu? B.
Lynk Former Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 I'm hearing rumours that the PS3 controller is being named PooS (the "oo" representing the infinity symbol). I have no idea if there is any fact behind it though so don't everyone go off like you did with the whole "Nintendo hates Wii" thing that went on in here.
BongoBob Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 Poor Unoriginal ****. Isn't it PUS? Anyhow, the bagel powered Playstation Wii60 would not be a waste of bagels. One bagel can power it for over a year of non stop use! Also, the optional cream cheese enables backwards compatibility
