Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.[15] ”<br /><br />Despite <a href="http://www.widisman.com/shop.php?k=wii&amp;c=VideoGames">Nintendo</a>'s justification for the name, some video game developers and members of the press reacted negatively towards the change. They preferred "Revolution" over "Wii"[16] and Forbes expressed fear "that the name would convey a continued sense of 'kidiness' [sic] to the console."[17] The BBC reported the day after the name was announced that "a long list of puerile jokes, based on the name," had appeared on the Internet.[18] <a href="http://gopemula.blogspot.com">Nintendo</a> of America's president Reggie Fils-Aime acknowledged the initial reaction and further explained the change:<br /><br />Revolution as a name is not ideal; it's long, and in some cultures, it's hard to pronounce. So we wanted something that was short, to the point, easy to pronounce, and distinctive.
