  • change the wii u name yes oh god yes 

  • The Nintendo Equinox

  • Ses sence entertainment system

  • I like the name wii u

  • They should call it the Nintendo Stream

  • The Wii U's name makes total sense! Here, let me sum it up! :D

    NES upgrades to SNES

    Nintendo 64 upgrades to GameCube

    Wii upgrades to Wii U.

    Get the saying? ;D

  • I'd say RON aka revolution of nintendo!!!

    Or super nintendo 1080p haha

  • Ultra Famicom/ Super Duper Nintendo

  • Capcom guy is awesome. The name Wii - U is not that bad. I mean.The final fantasy thing somehow make me smile

  • I never liked the idea of naming a system 2 or with a letter to denote the change of name.

    You have the Xbox and the Xbox 360, the Playstation series. I like that Nintendo keeps things unique. Maybe call it the Dolphin. :p I'm just kidding, but I do think it should have a different name. I actually like 3DS better than DS2 because to me, a number implies just an upgrade on the current system. Now, if they named it the DSOVER9000, then that would be an epic system name. :p

  • 2:22

    HELL NO!!!!

    No other reason needed for renaming the system.

  • Well the wii has sold more consoles than any other so I would stick with Wii U...

    (Wii has sold 94 mil units, xbox 65 mil units, ps3 62 mil units)

  • super wii

  • Super Nintendo 1080

  • 3ds ds how you mix that up

  • Here's a name change for shits and giggles:

    Wii Touch U. =3

  • @Cyberwolf087 DS..Touch is Good!

  • RiiVolution!

  • i think stream is bad because then people will say this . nes's snes n64 game cube's Wii stream. 

  • It should be called

    Bitches i get all the money system.

  • NAS

    Nintendo

    Action

    System

  • Call it Nintendo Ultra-Uber.

  • "the Nintendo ULTIMATE!"

  • I don't know if people are ready for a new xbox 360 and ps3 i mean a new wii that is fine but we don't need any new xbox/ps stuff because it is just a waste of money and just like they did with the old xbox after a year or 2 of the new xbox they will shut down the internet of the last one :( and + it was only like 4 years ago when the xbox/ps3 came out and they are still some of the best consoles out there today.

  • Nintendo should not have called his next handheld as "3DS", that end up sounding like it was just one of the many variations of the original DS.

    I do not see a problem to call their next console "Wii U",there never was a variation on the Wii for the same problem with the "3DS" be present on it.

    I think Nintendo does not have to change the name of their console, but also believe that if they decide to change the name, this year's E3 is its deadline for that.

  • btwgaanc

    bout time we get an amazing nintendo console

  • Nintendo 128

  • @xPyso The N64 was called the N64 because it was 64-bit. I'm pretty sure even the Gamecube was more than 128-bit.

  • I vote for the "Ultra NES" or "The Nintendo Slaughter Box"

  • oh kwing i forgot to tell you

    i cried when i watched the End of Chuck and i thought of u and kwife the WHOLE TIME

    i cried when chuck was with Sarah in the house with there names in the side of the wall

  • Ninteneighty

  • Nintendo 128

  • Another new 3D Mario game... Don't risk too much innovation at once Nintendo.

  • CHANGE THAT GOD AWFUL NAME

  • Wii know u'll buy it

  • I hope they change the name, it don't like the name wii and they shouldn't use the name again. Name it something that's at least cool to say

  • The Wii u should now be called the Ultra dolphen revolution!

  • Wii U

  • what do you think i should get wii u or 3ds

  • Super nintendo 2

  • 1. Name it MegaNES

    2. Make cartridge slots

    3. ????

    4. PROFIT!!!

  • hispanic link ftw

  • i was just about to say, ''wasnt resolution the codename for wii?'' but anyways, how about the nintendo......tablet...ipad...­..snorlax

  • If someone is confused with DS and 3DS, as well as Wii and Wi U, is stupid and should go back to pre-school, did anyone confuse PS1 PS2 and PS3? dont really see why people are getting dumber over the years. js

  • I think it should be named wiivoloution!!!

  • I'm kind of irritated by how people think the animal crossing news is brand new. In the developers circle they said all of that.

  • I really hope that Resident Evil 6 will get a Wii U version... Or else I wont be playing it. (don't have a 360 or ps3... and don't want one)

  • Yeah no, unless the Wii U is going to cost 100 bucks when released, I'm not ready for another console.

  • it should be called the wii ni. then you could invite people over to play with your wii ni. or you could just play with your wii ni yourself. bad jokes are the best!

  • i think that naming the new system the wii u is very boring and bland and that if you were to call it something awesome like the super nintendo 2 or nintendo revolution it would increase sales exponentially and there would be a larger interest in the new system from the real hardcore gamers

  • It should be called U-ltra NES :P

  • It dosen't matter to me but i'd rather have them stick with the Wii U name rather changing it too soon. If people get confused its only because they didn't do any research and with the internet,Thiers really no reason why people should be get confused on established information in the first place.

  • yay first party titles at launch for wii u

  • i want a new name :P

  • I don't want it to be named Wii-U, considering my name is Ryu and they both sound so close D;

  • Well if the Wii U is going to change it's name that means the WiiViewer will have to change his name.

  • Wii 2 - short and snappy ... if ps2 and ps3 don't cause problems then just do wii2

  • CHANGE YES WE CAN

  • it doesn't matter what its called. only matters how powerful it is and how well it holds up.

  • Change it

  • master betty approves of the WiiU.

  • What about Nintendo Ultra?

    All the games can have Ultra at the end! XD

  • @PokeZelda6664 Mario Ultra, Legend of Zelda Ultra Sword.... I like it.

  • Nintendo should call it the "Nintendo Revolution"

  • hi

  • it should be called soming idk what name bt somthing new would be nicer!

  • Supernintendo II

    It must be happan

  • I think that while I like the name Wii U, it would probably be a better sales strategy to change the name to something else. Maybe they could name it what the Wii was going to be, A.K.A. the NINTENDO Revolution!

  • Link falling asleep was really cute ^_^ and nice transition too.

  • Confusion among consumers with Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS? Id say a person deserves to get the wrong game if that's so confusing lol. I mean does Playstation 1, Plastation 2, and Playstation 3 confuse you?

  • @greateststam1

    Adding a number after something tells people its the next new product. Labeling just by letters has always confused consumers. Still there was no confusion over what the DS was over the Gameboy advance. Though buyers didn't know at first that the DS was the successor to the GBA. Took awhile, but by the time DS lite came out, it proved its dominance of the portable market. If Big N called 3DS the DS2 wouldn't be that much confusion for consumers.

  • @greateststam1 some people who buy these thing don't buy for themselves, they buy for others, so they might not understand... let me give you an example! My mum went on holiday and I asked her to get me Rayman Origins for the Wii... She got it for PS3 (i dont own a ps3) clarity is important!

  • SUPER NINTENDO 2 IS THE BEST NAME

  • the wii U should be called the dolphin the gamecube code name

  • They better make it Nintendo Revolution: 1: Because it is honestly a revolution in gaming. and 2: Because the Wii (1)'s name got changed from Revolution to Wii, which I was very disappointed about when I found out

  • Seriously i wanted them to call i Revolution from the start, and after looking comments allover YT and other medias people seem to agree with me. NINTENDO, name i Revolution period!

  • What is Nintendo gonna do send Fat Tony after Capcom... Just kidding. I can't think of a good name but I still like Revolution! Anyway it's gonna be alright! Shameless Beatle plug there. Peace out

  • I think naming it the Wii U makes it sound last gen. They should completely change it.

  • I hate the 3DS's name so much. I can't see 3D so when I say I only bought the 3DS for the games, non gamers call be stupid for buying a DS in 3D...I want to punch them in the face for being so wrong.

    I really hope the Wii U name changes

  • Nintendo CDS (Console Dual Screens)

  • Nintendo Stream, Dolphin, or Nimbus. The Wii-U got to go lol

  • nintendo stream sounds awesome

  • I agree that naming it after the Wii was never a good idea. A lot of the "hardcore" gamers find "wii" synonymous to "bad" so I say a new name would be quite useful

  • Nintendo rocks.

  • I think that re-naming it would honestly be a good idea. Not only is Wii U a not particularly catchy name, it also alienates the 'hardcore' market that want Nintendo to drop their family image.

  • i dont really care what they call it. its still gonna be awesome. it could be called the super fun game of adventure id still buy it ^_^

  • RNES

    revolutionary

    Nintendo

    Entertainment

    System

  • Mario360: Well, at least they're not naming it the Wii 2 like in many early rumors.

  • The Nintendo Dolphin.

  • Super Nintendo Entertainment System 2... oh nostalgia.

  • Fart Box 6000

  • Call it Vectrex 2000

  • They need to change the name and the design of the system! I dont want two boring white boxes on my shelf. If there going into HD to compete with other systems. They need a badass futuristic design and a totally different name! With that said I will still be buying it on launch day no matter what its called or how it looks!LOL!

  • Nintendo Ultra

  • nintendo 64x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4­x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4

  • Nintendo should think of a new name I'm sick of this lack of names xbox 720 playstion 4 come on ppl new name ideas!!!!

  • How funny I was thinking yesterday they should call it the super nintendo 2 but however. nintendo 57 or 72 or sounds cool but still lacking

  • Drop in Sales = Ready for the next generation? Somebody was really grasping at straws...

  • @droppingpenny

    Well Wii has been on the marked since 05 and has sold around 94million units. Also it´s not like it´s dropping that much really, 11,8 millions bought Wii last year compared to PS3 14 millions and XBox360 13,4.

    Wii is a clear winner of this generation (in sales) and most people who are interested in the Wii or Nintendo have bought it by now.

  • @GunnarKG I meant more the explanation itself ;-) Nintendo is really grasping at straws here to justify the dropping sales, by saying that it's because people are "ready" for a new console.

  • All the Animal Crossing stuff was old, we heard all that back in September! :(

    They should name it the Nintendo Café, I loved that code name so just keep it! xD

  • I can handle the nintendo stream.

  • Change the wii u name no need to confuse people.

  • I think they should do Wii 64.

  • I think all the names you gave are better then wii u as much as I think wii u is a good name they should have a different interesting name every year wii is a good name but so is game cube and n64 but they don't use those names again so why use the wii again?? they need to have some better and better names like they have done in the past

  • NeoNES...sounds good to me :)

  • @NaxoJUMP no offense but there was a console named the neogenisis,so i dont think it will work.but i like it,i dont wanna offend you or anything

  • What about the Nintendo MagicBox? LOL

  • super wii

    or wii 64

    wii advance

    wii collor or wii touch

  • Nintendo Revolution would be awesome!

  • Either call the new system Nintendo Revolution or Ultra Nintendo Entertainment System. I'd be cool with those.

  • Wii U keep the name

    

  • Keep it Wii U or Ultra NES

  • Stream and Wii U sound boring. It needs something explosive and fun.

  • I like stream

  • wiiviewer said it best. it sounds like a police siren.

  • I like P-NES Power nINTENDO eNTERTAINTMENT system

  • The name should be super nintendo U

  • theres 304 views, 300 likes and 3 dislikes.Im the only one not contributing T.T

  • They definitely should change the WiiU name.

  • I like Revolution

  • HDNES, the Stream is to easy to make innuendoes about.

  • I reeaaaaally hope they drop the WII U title.  Not only is it super LAME! But kids asking their parents for it..."Well you already HAVE a WII!"

  • Ultra sounds better than mega

  • They should call it Nintendo HD

  • Comment removed

  • ninjas i knew it

  • I say name Revolution because it is a revolution so yeah

  • A 2D mario game in 3d?

  • i think they should just continue the wii. i dont want a new console!

  • Nintendo Suck It Sony & Microsoft

    legit name

  • The Wii Stream would have been amazing, ya know... If we could get the 12 year olds of mind to stop giggling about it.

  • Nintendo Stream would be awesome !

  • Nintendo Entertainment System

    Super Nintendo

    Mega Nintendo

  • change the name of the wii u, I think they should go with Nintendo Stream or the Super Nintendo X?

  • What's up folks Skyward Sword part 4 is up. Thanks for watching today's K-News and have a great night.

  • I didn't want it at first.....BUT NOW I DO

  • Nintendo should definitely change the name of the Wii U cause the name will lead many to believe it's just another Wii.

  • I think that the Nintendo Stream sounds good, stream for vast opportunity etc.

  • wait...at the end why did you croma key it instead of just overlaying it I know its a nit-pick but was bugging me.

  • Nintendo's Finally Stepping There Game Up Again :)

  • NW2 = Nintendo Will 2

  • NES HD 

  • I would like the Super Wii. The other consoles keep their names. I think the 3DS just didn't have enough buzz about it.

  • If Nintendo is renaming their console, I seriously hope they don't pick any of the names fanboys on the internet come up with. >_>

  • No one was confused when Sony kept using the PlayStation name.

    PlayStation

    PlayStation 2

    PlayStation 3

    That seems to work for Sony.

    Same for Microsoft.

  • Keep it simple, keep it effective for the target audience. If it's for new players and kids, name it something like The Revolution, or The Stream. If it's targeted towards the adult market call it something like NES 2. Or NES1080. Something that resonates from the past but says I'm new and better.

  • nintento should name it god

  • Power Nintendo Entertainment System P-NES :P

  • Nintendo Next, cuz someone is bound to pin a next in there somewhere

  • what's the song that plays in the background of the video?

  • Revolution would be awesome.

  • they NEED to change the name. if this is going to be the next-gen console for them and not just an upgraded wii, then its needs to be named something entirely different, it already has the same design and color as the wii anyways.

  • Nintendo Nspire. That would sell maybe.

  • Nintendo Revolution

  • Wii U is the most retarded name ever. They BETTER change it.

  • No change! I actually grew to like that name.

  • They should call it Nintendo Funtertainment System

  • Chuck Fan Right here! *Chuck Fan High Five*

    Don't leave me hanging.

  • Nintendo Ultra.

  • Remember, remember, the month of November...

  • Will definitely get Wii U if it has smash at launch. Otherwise I'm just gonna stand by and watch for a while. Plus looking forward to buy 3ds later on still prolly gonna wait for revision. Wii U should be named Nintendo TV or Evolution. Plus guys Rayman Origins is coming out on PC and retail will have no DRM so yeah will definitely be getting that.

  • Nintendo Altimatic

  • Honestly I think that they should not have the name wii in it at all. The name wii is commercial suicide. Wii U, Wii 2, Wii HD, Wii have another system. As long as it drops the name wii, which is renowned for casual gaming, it may be able to win back the hard core gamers, but a power house system will be a turn away for casual gamers (price mostly). The name wii on Nintendo's next system may kill it.

  • How about...? Super Nintendo Core?? IDK, anything is better than "Wii". Lol
