Requested move to Nintendo Wii
Porsche997SBS filed a request on requested moves to have this moved to Nintendo Wii: I'm just completing the request :). Please comment below :). It is as it always was T 07:38, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Wii -> Nintendo Wii All other Nintendo consoles have the company name in their article's title. ex. Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo 64--Porsche997SBS 19:22, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose - This has been discussed and concluded on already. Twice. The official name is "Wii". GameCube is officially "Nintendo GameCube", DS is officially "Nintendo DS", and so on. You don't see the PS3 article called "Sony PlayStation 3". Numbnumb 18:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose - Thus far, Nintendo has not attached their company name to the console's moniker and not a single Nintendo employee has referred to it as the "Nintendo Wii". buckeyes1186 18:36, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Wii is far less ambiguous when alone than 64 or Gamecube, and most importantly Nintendo marketing hasn't used that term. -- Consumed Crustacean | Talk | 19:38, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose. For the reasons already given. -- Steel359 20:02, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Nintendo specifically writes that it is called "Wii" and not "Nintendo Wii" (see official webpage). Ladlergo 14:43, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose I personally was confused by the lack of "Nintendo" at first as they really didn't make it clear that they were using a new naming convention... they have since been very specific in interviews and at E3 2006 that there is no such title as "Nintendo Wii", there's just "Wii" (just as there is no "Microsoft Xbox 360" or "Sony Playstation 3".)Dannybu2001 21:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose Nintendo has stated that the offical name of the console is "just Wii" a change for Nintendo but not that big of a change for conusmers, most people call a Nintendo Game Cube, just Game Cube for example. (Hypernick1980 21:24, 17 May 2006 (UTC))


 * Oppose, ditto the reasons as above. --Stratadrake 00:52, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose, the fact that this is even an issue is in itself somewhat of a problem. -- Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk 03:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose, "not this again!" :) It's officially "Wii" as stated above. Ritarri 09:09, 18 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose, Normally, I'd be inclined to agree with you, as it makes sense, except that Nintendo has made a specific point of emphasizing it's only supposed to be "Wii". From the Nintendo Style Guide distributed with their E3 Press Kit, "It is simply Wii, not Nintendo Wii."  That's pretty cut and dried.72.130.21.164 06:49, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

 * I have chosen not to vote yet for the following reason. User verbally withdrew this request in a talk page discussion with me & User talk:Porsche997SBS.  Unless I am mistaken misinterpreting he said he would take my advice and withdraw it from the request.    Perhaps the user has simply not gotten around to it yet.  Also, it has been discussed several sections up on the 14th I believe.  If you feel a vote it still necessary I will vote but I don't thinkl it will be necessary.-- Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk 07:52, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I want to point out that the user completed the survey petition after having answered. I am thinking he may have changed his mind since he posted the reply in your page. -- ReyBrujo 18:58, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. I voted.-- Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk 03:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
