Reply #4 - 28.04.06 at 15:00:50 But they succeded in their main purpouse, I really doubt anyone would have posted any nintendo related here if it woudn't have been for this drastic name change. Good or bad publicity is publicity the more the better, spoken like a true marketing dude. (but the name still sux)

yeps I agree, though the hardware may be very L33T but still the name doesn't match the whole concept, it's like abit too Low thought in terms of by givin a very well known console a good and good name, Revolution would have had a better naming and meaning for what the Nitendo Console really is and therefore more symbollic also and better marketing.

Just like Ultra64 became Nintendo64, Dolphin became Gamecube, Nitro became DS and so on... Who cares about the name? If the console is as revolutionary as Nintendo says, then great! 8) And I think XBox 360 sounds far more noobish...

In The Netherlands we call xbox 360 --> NiXBox 360 Grin

because it's totally nothing compared to modern day Computing, okay the Graphics are okay on a HDTV screen but the sounds is very poor, I rather choose for better Ultra High End PC Layout than one of those consoles lol. Roll Eyes

Nintendo should of been seen as the God of consoles since that they were one of the first, oh well even thier Mario games do get boring after a while, If I really had to choose it would be a Nintendo for a Console but then again I run a Emulator on the PC and those games are playbale on the PC as well lol.

anyways I must admit I'm not a Console lover oh well those things will never beat PC specs anyways.

It's just two different things; it's not like one is better than the other. I have way more fun playing Tetris on my GB than playing Doom 3 on a killer PC with 34 screens and 67 speakers, that's it.
