Sorry Meno, but It didn't work. I found this link on Metroid Galaxy. It apparently didn't work for them either.
IGNI'm extremely saddened by this change.

I'm thinking I'm going to join the SCU toileteers when I get my Wii: I'll set it up in my bathroom.
...
"Hey, guys, come over into my bathroom and play with my Wii."
*runs*
...>_>;
It's still the same console, though.

:lol: That was pretty good.
Yeah I know. I still liked the name Revolution better though. It sounded cooler. Oh well. I guess all that really matters is the console itself.

Wii is most probably not the final name, Wii isn't a registered trademark. It's Nintendo, so I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled a Nintendo and changed the name again. (from a PSP : [ )

Actually, as it turns out, Wii is a registered trademark (hence the little next to the name). It was just registered like 20 years ago -_-.
I sure hope this turns out to be a joke just to give the Revo more popularity. We only have to wait until May 9th to find out...

I have to wonder. If there were already some kinds of imprints saying "Revolution" they would have to melt the plastic again or something. Actually, I really haven't checked, but I haven't seen the word imprinted on the consol or stand. Man, I can't keep a position in my own argument! Oh well. Maybe Wii shouldn't worry about it now ( :lol: , but the joke's stale).

No, just because it has TM next to it doesn't mean it's registered. You can put TM next to anything you use a lot, but it doesn't have the little R for registered. It's just a tradmark, not a registered one.
Wii is most probably not the name.
Troid92 - April 30, 2006 09:34 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I figured that out after I had posted here. Everything seems to point to it being fake. Please, May 9, come faster!

I may have missed something. what's on may nineth?
Troid92 - May 2, 2006 11:39 PM (GMT)
Oh, nothing important, really. It's only the day of E3 the Nintendo Wii will be fully unveiled on. Yes, that also means everything else "Revolutionary" they were keeping secret until now will be revealed.
...
Like I said, nothing important at all.
...
*can't stand the calmness any longer and jumps up screaming "ONE WEEK" repeatedly*

self controll! :D :lol: Well I shall satisfy requests.
*coughs deeply*
*what used to be the lyrics for "One Week" here*
:blink: :mellow: If you tell me not to do that again, I wol'nt.

...strange... I'm not excited...
Edit: AWW **** THAT'S THE DAY I CAN'T GET ON A COMPUTER TILL MIDNIGHT!!!
...Wait!!! When does this E3 thing come (as in hour wise)?
JDE - May 3, 2006 04:30 AM (GMT)
it's gonna be shown on TV right? If so, then what channel? Hopefully it'll be on Spike, because I don't get G4. You know that I have NEVER seen E3? I really want to see it.
Troid92 - May 3, 2006 08:08 PM (GMT)
You don't get G4, eh? ...I'll just do the same thing I did with Meno. Take your remote, and keep pushing in channel names around 70 (mine is 74, Meno's is 67, I believe). You should eventually find G4. TVs just don't update their channel list (which tells them what channel to go to next) unless you tell it to in its menu. However, you can still access a channel that isn't on the list if you type in the number. If you can't find G4, though, well, then I guess you don't get it. :/ You'll just have to keep yourself updated with the internet.
Oh, and e173, yeah, that takes up a lot of space and isn't really necessary. Don't do it again, unless it's in an appropriate topic, such as a song lyrics one.

Another lesson learned, got it.
E3... :huh: :( what is that?
I'm just kidding! :D :lol: However, I'm not sure how i'm going to be able to watch it. :(
