Maybe you missed the part where the system was coming out next month? It would be shocking if this was a holding name.

But in general terms, I don't think I've ever seen a console reveal with a holding name. I've seen devs speaking in general terms using code/project names for the device, but I've never seen a company actually come out and announce the system with anything other than the final name.

Once you have the reveal event, that name is pretty firmly in place. Hell, I don't think I've ever actually seen companies release press releases using project names. These are usually just the internal name for the project that leaks to the rumor mill, because companies are increasingly unwilling to say anything about a product until the reveal event, specifically to give them more control over the hype meter.

What about the Wii? It was announced as the "Revolution," even though they also announced that this was a temporary name.

How have I not heard about this.
Anyways.. I think I own 3 3DS Smiley: lol
I say think because I can only see 2 of then...the 3rd I think is in it's box.

So hopefully I can use the 1st gen one as a trade in. The other 2 will be mine forever (Zelda themed ones).

Nintendo and their stupid decisions. If it wasn't for Mario Kart and Zelda games, I would have done bounced years ago.
Like this, why? They could have made so much more...

Hell, ironic as it is, if I was to buy a console the Wii U would probably be the wisest choice. It offers me the greatest number of new, big-budget games in addition to my gaming PC, as well as all the streaming apps I care about. If FFXV and KH3 were announced to be on the PC, I'd have very, very little reason to want anything other than a Wii U.


This is why I bought a wii u. Everything else I was interested in for the most part is released on PC.
