Mummy, I need a Wii!

My brother and I have just been pissing ourselves because Nintendo have decided to change the name of their new games console. It was the fairly respectable ‘Revolution’. Now it’s called Wii — pronounced ‘we’. Or ‘wee’. From respectability to instant worldwide laughing stock in one move. Well done Nintendo!

  • So now their console literally is a pile of piss.
  • At least it will be difficult to take the piss out of it (ehhh kind of).
  • The new versions of the games will have to be called, for instance, Mario Wii
  • “Mummy, I’m going to play with my Wii.”
  • “My Wii is broken.”
  • “Your Wii is a different colour to mine.”
  • “I need to get the latest Wii game.”
  • “I’m going to Gamestation for a Wii.”
  • Sony will rename their PlayStation3 console ‘Puu’.

Many of the above shamelessly nicked from this forum (thanks Gordon).

  • I need a Wii now! I can’t wait until this fall!
  • “Mum, I finished my homework. Can I play with my Wii some more?”
  • “Hey Mom, Roger’s bringing his Wii over. We’re going to connect his Wii to my Wii and then we’ll play all night.”

…you get the picture…

Update: Canspice:

For the immature person in all of us this is a great day. A great day indeed.

  1. It’s funny, everytime you think Nintendo are turning a corner, they literally come and piss all over you.

    Funniest 5 minutes ever, quickly followed by a depressing realisation that I’m going to have to see this joke on all the gaming sites, for the next 6 years at the very least.
