Add A New Word To The Word Filter

Wii.
Please filter the word Wii to Revolution.

Personaly, I don't like the Revolution's new name. Im sure plenty of people will agree with me. I think it'll actually help Nintendo realize how crappy the name is. If a large forum like X-S starts this, hopefully it will spread to other sites.
If the word M!cros0ft can be filterd to M$ I'd imagine Wii wouldn't be any problem.
It's a dumb name and hopefully there's enough time to let Nintendo know WE don't like it.

I don't think there was ever a poll on the name change here on XS.  So you don't have the opinions of others.  To say that Wii don't like the name is wrong.  How do you know that Wii (Xbox-Scene) does not like the name Wii?  Maybe Wii do, maybe Wii don't.  I asked a couple of my friends if they liked the name and Wii all agree it is better than Revolution.  Wii think this because Wii is short, easy to say, needs no abbreviation, and can be said in any language.  The name was changed, Wii have to accept that.

MS's corporate name is filtered for a (number of) good reason(s).

Not just because someone doesn't care for the word.

I would suggest you take the issue up with Nintendo rather than ask an Xbox site to change policy.


Closed unless an admin has something to add. There's no reason for debate.
