Nintendo announced earlier this week that their next-generation console, code-named Revolution, will have a new name when it hits the market. The console will be named the Nintendo Wii. That's pronounced "Wee."

Yeah, you see the problem.

Player 1: "I've got an Xbox 360."

Player 2: "I've gotta Wii."

Player 1: "The bathroom's down the hall on your left."

Nintendo probably would've been better off naming it the "Nii." Then they could have some ads where the Knights-Who-Say-Nii charge the player to cut down the largest tree in the forest with a herrring Nii controller.
