I can guarantee you now 6000% its not a product of Photoshop . . . . It is 100% a screenshot taken running Chrome on my iMac . . .

So, wait. You actually screencaped this from their site? You didn't just find the picture? Hmm, the game's back on then boys!

I'm giving DefectiveReject the benefit of the doubt on not fucking with us, and as a System Admin, I'm completely versed in the ability of a sysadmin to accidentally put a website live that wasn't supposed to be.

Call it Super Nintendo Entertainment System Turbo(SNEST) while you're at it.

Neuromancer · Apr 13, 2012

I'm guessing there is some kind of miscommunication here

SoulUnison · Apr 13, 2012

I like the callback, but doesn't that just reintroduce the "3DS" problem even *harder* than the "Wii U" name did?

"Why do you need a Wii System, you have a Wii!"
"Why can't my DSi play 3DS games? I thought it was better than a regular DS."
"I want to buy this Wii Entertainment System game for my grandson. I know he has a Wii, he's had it for years."

EvilMario · Apr 13, 2012

Not as good as Super Wii, and people will still be confused about what the system is exactly, mistaking it for some sort of addon.

They need to drop the "wii" entirely

They should just call it "Entertainment"

Radogol · Apr 13, 2012

Super Wii or bust.

Danny Dudekisser · Apr 13, 2012

Maybe they're alluding to the old-ass NES because even current gen systems are going to leave the WiiU in the fucking dust.

Ardenyal · Apr 13, 2012

An "entertainment system" without bluray or DVD playback? hmmh

Just go all the way and name it NES.

Do it do it

Would still be confusing as hell.

Cygnus X-1 · Apr 13, 2012

Holy shit yes. This is a bold move and I like it.

Super Wii Entertainment System

Josh7289 · Apr 13, 2012

It's going to be called Wii U.

axisofweevils · Apr 13, 2012

Wii Exterminate Sony

Perfect.

Haunted · Apr 13, 2012

To be frank, that'd be totally genius.

But if it's fake, it's fake.

I'm not an entertainment system

Videogames are not a form of entertainment. You heard it here first.

King of the Potato People · Apr 13, 2012

But the 1st Wii was suppose to be an Entertainment System.

Deadly Cyclone · Apr 13, 2012

If they have to keep Wii, it needs to be Wii 2. Or at least something to make people understand that it is a brand new console and not another name for the Wii, or another Wii SKU.

Wii 2
Wii Revolution
Wii Squared
Wii Mii

I don't care.

MagicWithEarvin · Apr 13, 2012

Super Wii would be better, IMO.

GDGF · Apr 13, 2012

Diablos54 · Apr 13, 2012

I still think 'Super Wii' would be better, but as long as they market it right, 'Wii Entertainment System' doesn't sound too bad.

And to everyone saying to drop the Wii name, are you all insane? It's be like Sony dropping the PlayStation name after the PS2.

kittens · Apr 13, 2012

It says Wii U in Japanese to the left of that line, though.

Edit : I was wrong, it says Wii Ware. My Japanese is rusty!

IceDoesntHelp · Apr 13, 2012

Don't worry guys, it'll be renamed Super Duper Awesome Spectacular Nintendo Entertainment System (SDASNES) by years end. Since I know its what we all want, I'll email Nintendo right now.

-PXG- · Apr 13, 2012

This name is Wiik

ThatObviousUser · Apr 13, 2012

This would make much more sense as a Wii renaming, honestly. And it doesn't make any sense there either.

Bait and troll the rest of gaf. Mods lock thread, nothing to see here.

Wii S or the new Wii will be better

FrontalMonk · Apr 13, 2012

I think this rumor just came out because I dug out my NES last weekend and plugged it in. In other news, OH SHIT MEGAMAN 2

They should just call it a "Nintendo" like my parents do

Cygnus X-1 · Apr 13, 2012

Someone should absolutely change this legendary ad

Somnid · Apr 13, 2012

Anyone can legitly screen cap this:

Right click item
Inspect Element
Double click element
Type "This is bullshit"
Print Screen

Desmond · Apr 13, 2012

I can get behind WES.

I'd actually say "wess" though despite spelling out NES instead of "ness".
