Wow. I can see why it's a weird name, but I'm sure people will get used to it after the first year when they giggle and try and use it in suggestive context. As long as it's easy and practical, the name is really insignificant to how well it works. Also, the logo looks like a total Apple rip-off.

Using the term 'gay' in a derogatory sense can be very offensive.


Please don't tell me you're offended by that...

Nintendo can call their system whatever they want. Regardless of its name, it will still field more high quality games on launch date than the XBox and XBox 360 have right now combined. Yeah, that's right, I'm predicting that Nintendo will have 2 quality games at release.

Its a brave marketing move, only time will tell on whether it works or not I guess.
