    They said he did it for humor to address the common reference to "they."

    "'They do this,' or 'They're to blame for that.' Who is this 'they' everyone talks about? 'They' accomplish such great things. Somebody had to take responsibility," he said.
    Ok, not done for political reasons like I previously said. But gimme a break huh? I was recalling an obscure article that I read nearly 18 months ago.

  8. Wii sounds better than Phantom, atleast Wii is real.

  9. Wii are real. It's funny when something like this reaches 5 pages, even if it's mostly because of trash posts like my own.

  10. If she has any, I really hope Perrin Kaplan's kids are making fun of her right now for defending this name like the corporate drone she is (reading her blathering comments in Matt's weekly "Nintendo Minute" is like mental anemia). "Haha, mom. Gonna go to work today and defend the wii-wii-pee-pee name for your bosses?! Durrr. Hey mom, you're right, maybe Yahoo should be re-named "YaPoo?!"

    Seriously, only Nintendo could start to do something so right with the DS and Revolution's respective mature concepts of bridging the gameplay gap between kids, adults and even elderly people......and THEN they completely shoot all that well earned marketing goodwill in the face by bridging it with a name that any logical person can see will spawn endless urination jokes.

    Not saying I'm not gonna look past this and am still looking forward to the games, but man. What an awful move marketing wise. This is brand name death incarnate.
