I personally like the name The Revolution but Wii has more meaning to it.It has nintendo following their past trends of meaning in their names.(NES= Nintendo Entertainment SystemSNES= Super " "Nintendo 64= 64 Bit GraficsGame Cube = Cube that plays gamesWii= Wireless integrated infared)

Nintendo's Revolution codename for the Wii definitely seems like an excellent name, however, it would also be rather arrogant to actually have the official release name of your console that. I'm glad that Nintendo has gone with a much more meaningful while less arrogant alternative.

Sry I didn't vote but they're both good names! Revolution doesn't have much zing it's cool. Wii well it's original? But it's awesome. I hated when I pronounced it Wii(Why- with more emphasis on 1 I not 2).

I think the name Revolution sounded better, now you get jokes like " wanna play with my wii" and stuff like that.

Revolution is a better american name, but you have to remeber. Nintnedo is based in Japan, and the Japanese find it much easier to say Wii than Revolution. At first, i though they were crazy, but Wii grew on me eventually.
