It'll be okay, Kathryn. There there. A rose by any other name, and such and so forth?

No, it will not be okay. They will be ridiculed by all and even their loyal gamers will become embarrassed to own one. This will lead to reduced purchases followed directly by decreasing developer interest, which means less games made for it and that, my friend, equals flaming console death!

Without the next-gen console from Nintendo: the world economy will fail; buildings will collapse; families will be rent asunder! Ultimately, this grave mistake by Nintendo will lead to our very reality's complete and utter destruction!!

Bah--be quiet you!

I understand the "its easy to say in other languages"...but what do they mean by saying it refelcts their controller? Seriously...how does Wii shed light on the controller?...in any good way...

Now, the question is, will sony name their next system the PeeS3 ?
(Stolen from the article I read but I am childish enough that it made me snort)

I wonder if the new controllers will look like two letter i's.
