    Sweeties, Wii > Revolution. XD

    Besides the puns and dirty jokes, I perfer the name Wii than Revolution because it's orignal, and doesn't sound so generic. Revolution may sound cool for awhile, then it'll sound lame later. Besides sweeties, revolution clearly describes the Wii. ~.^

    When I heard of Wii the first time, the following things came to mind. "Weeeeee!", "WE RULE!", and for some reason "cute." XD Wii sounds cute to me for some reason. Which is a good thing.

    When i first heard the name Wii,i couldin't think to myself about it cause my sister and my friend kept talking about the name and how lame it is.But i'm here to say Wii sounds really original.
    Revolution,that name was good,but then,you don't see any originality or creativity in the name.So Wii is the best name,if i say so myself.

    Nah, I still like Wii better. It's grown on me. And at least it's original, unlike the other consoles in the race. I mean, the others just added numbers to theirs. Nintendo actually changed the name and went for something completely different. I like that.

    I think that Revolution was a much better name than Wii. I think Wii is an ugly name. I wished the controller was more normal too.

    Well, I like the name. Despite that people and games magazines make jokes about the name or say things like "Wii will rock you".
    I also like it when people say it in a silly way like: "Wiiiiiii...." <squeaky voice>

    And it's a more original name compared to Playstation, GameCube, etc.

    I always thought of them name "Wii" humerous since I've first heard about it. In that case, "Nintendo Revolution" would sound more appropriate for game systems other than "Wii", in my view.

    I am like most people here, I thought it was humorous at the start, but it grew on me, I used to think it was pronounced "Why" because of the two i's and then I say it was pronounced "We", anyways, I think it's a really good name and Revolution did seem abit bland and rather unimaginative.
