The Wii

Wii

Notice, I did not say the “Nintendo Wii”. That would be incorrect. Because according to the Nintendo Style Guide: A Guide to the Proper Usage of Some of Nintendo's Products, the name "is simply Wii, not Nintendo Wii."

So don’t go around incorrectly referring to the Wii as the “Nintendo Wii”. Nintendo fan boys might not even realize what console you are talking about. They might think that there is a surprise launch of a new Nintendo console. They might run to their nearest Best Buy or Target to get in line for this new console the “Nintendo Wii”. They already own three Wiis and now they are going to waste their time because you couldn’t use the Wii’s name properly. So I hope you’re sorry if you’ve ever refered to the Wii as the “Nintendo Wii” because in our hypothetical situation, the Nintendo fan boys are not very happy with you.

And they know where you live. Because they’re smarter than you. So beware. Beware the Nintendo fan boys. They are coming. Coming for you. Ok, maybe not, because this is a hypothetical story. But if it were real, they would be coming for you. So be afraid. Yeah.
