I understand it latches familiarity to the product. But it must not make up for the loss in sales do to confusion and the general slight feeling that your not getting this brand new system. I think people would be slightly more intrigued in buying these systems if they were called The Nintendo Revolution and True3D or something. Makes it sound like a bigger console gap instead of sounding like an expansion... Wii U sounds less powerful then Revolution

idk, just a thought.

Frankly, I think Nintendo is doing something right by keeping the names so...truthful. The 3DS isn't much but a skip and a hop from the DS, they did something right with that one. But the WiiU could've used a different name entirely.
