What are 3 gayer names for Nintendo's new console?


Prior to this year's E3 (Electronics Entertainment Expo) Nintendo announced they were changing the name of the "Revolution." That was the project name for their new console and it was a pretty good name. However, the powers that be thought the system needed a gay name. So they re-named their console, "Wii." It's pronounced like the word "we." Almost immediately Nintendo got raped on the internet for their decision. How could they possibly change the name from something non-gay to something extremely gay? Some people I have encountered refuse to call it Wii. I really don't care too much because the name of the system doesn't have anything to do with the quality of the games.

Alas, the purpose of this post is to explore three alternate avenues that Nintendo could have taken. Three avenues of alternate fagosity.

1) They could have simply called the system "The Gay." That's just as lame and gay as "Wii." There are so many applications of that name that would rock. For example:
"Hey man, did you play that new Gay game?" "Yeah dude, it's totally Gay!" So on and so forth. I like it.

2) It could have been called "Dolphin." This was actually a project name for the N64. How gay would that have been? "Hey guys, I just got my Dolphin!" "That's great Bryce. You should invite Elliot over to play with your Dolphin." You get the point.

3) Why not take a page from Sony's book (just like they took several pages from Nintendo's book this past year), call it the "PlayStation 3." Seriously, Sony has got to change the name of their system. It's getting old and it lacks creativity. I hate Sony. They don't make good games and they don't make trustworthy consoles. Poeple go through PS2s like they do toilet paper. When it comes to durability Nintendo is king.

Three alternate avenues have been explored and I think Nintendo chose the "right" avenue. It's still a gay name, but there are gayer names. All I'm going to do is buy it and forget about the name. Just play the games and forget about the name painted on front of the console.

If you could have easy access to DVDs that are still in the theaters for super cheap but poor quality, would you still get them or wait until they are actually released?
