Keeping the wii name next to wii U is killing the system appeal to a ton of people I talk to. I love the name but Im so sick of people saying its just a new Wii and that its a gimmick.. Then I show them the game-pad and they are like oh so its a new console? Its hard as hell to explain to people what it is. They should have just named it something else.

    @ECHO: Chances are, if somebody says that they're not going to buy a system over its name, they had absolutely no intention of ever buying the thing. As Mitch said, calling it the Wii U keeps the iconic Wii brand name, which in turn will create more consumer awareness. Negative awareness or not, it's awareness nonetheless.
