Introducing Nintendo Wii: Did You Get Yours?

[dgridley]

TM's aside, Nintendo released the official name for the next generation Nintendo games console: Wii (as in "we").

"Introducing... Wii.
As in "we."

While the code-name Revolution expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer. Wii will break down that wall that seperates videogame players from everybody else. Wii will put people more in touch with their games... and each other. But you're probably asking: What does the name mean?

Wii sounds like "we," which emphasizes the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.

Wii has a distinctive "ii" spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people playing it. And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of videogames that sets it apart from the crowd.

So that's Wii. But now Nintendo needs you. Because it's really not about you or me. It's about Wii. And together, Wii will change everything."

[GreenGambler]

Ok I just hoped on the wagon and reg'd...

NintWIIndo.com

Niiwii.com

Niwii.com

I think these are pretty good last minute reg's.

 

[thesilverblade]

I have some nices ones like aboutwii.net and modyourwii.com
Even though I don't like the name, I still think it will become pretty popular

 

[jerse21]

got a few from the beginning

I got WiiTech.com and WiiDeveloper.com

When I was searching I must have been really early because WiiWeb.com, WiiReview.com and several others were still available including many that I have seen on this board. I would have grabbed more if I knew they were going to be so popular.

I'll hold on to these two and see if I get any offers.

The more the better for us, Just out of interest has anyone had a good offer for any of their wii names or have you slod for a good price?

 

[matt_bodis]

There have been many good sales out there. But I think too many domainers went out of their way to register the worst of the worst. Even extensions such as .biz and .ws.

Not sure if that can hurt the people with the good domains or help us.

Another Nintendo reg'd name plus one more for me

Was reading some reports from E3 earlier today so I grabbed WIINUNCHAKU.COM.

Also noticed based on the reports from E3 that Nintendo grabbed the domain listed below.

Add some rep if you grab the following - wiiconnected.com -. Not sure if it needs two tts. (wiiconnect is taken) Thanks.


Domain name: WIICONNECT24.COM
