Yes Nintendo have unvieled the new name for their next-gen console.
Nintendo Wii.
Nintendo said this.
"While the code-name 'Revolution' expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer. Wii will break down that wall that separates game players from everybody else. Wii will put people more in touch with their games...and each other."
The site goes on to say that Wii should be easy to remember for people around the world, no matter their language, and that it will avoid abbreviation. The "ii" spelling is intended to represent "both the unique controllers and the image of people gathering to play."
Wierd, whats your views on the new name.
