Beem sounds good certainly better than Currant.

 

[Zeal]

please don't be the real name.

 

[GhaleonQ]

Vita: very good, though not excellent
Beem: *long look of disgust*
Coolio: McAwesome

Twitter NeoGAF is obvious now.

 

[Empty]

beem me up scotty jokes are going to get really annoying.

 

[ferr]

I can't beemlieve you are whining about a great name like Vita.

NEOGAF
BEEMLIEVE

 

[Perfect Blue]

Beem, huh? I kinda like it.

 

[Celine]

Beem Bum Bam ?

 

[Shikamaru Ninja]

Beem may just be Nintendo's "transfarring" service. Who knows. Good work though.

 

[radioheadrule83]

I can picture ads with four M's (mmmm) rotating around a central axis to form the word beem. Which would make good sense for a food-stuff... but I do think its a catchy name for a console too, and if it really does use AMD tech or something for wireless display transmission then beem aptly evokes beam...

interesting find, very well done!

We started off with this rumor of a Nintendo HD console, then the rediculous project name, "Project Café."

Stopped reading there.

Looked at the logos, though, and it appears he is the one who made the logo, meaning it won't be the logo, thankfully.

 

[Jin34]

Please don't be called Beem.
You can't have a console for the hardcores called "Beem".

Wii was a good title given the concept.

This... no. Just, no.

If Playstation is not a problem I don't see how this is.

Wow. GAF totally skimmed over that, haha. Not that there was much reason to just believe it back then though.

 

[SidVicious]

 

[WillyFive]

It's better than Vita, at least. Beem sounds informal and loose (appealing), Vita sounds like a health drink (not appealing).

 

[Majmun]

Why not WEEM? Sound more fun.

 

[Cow Mengde]

I can't beemlieve you are whining about a great name like Vita.

You should be arrested for that pun.

 

[Y2Kev]

It's not Current. Isn't that the name of a Jewish news magazine? Or was that just in college. lol

You should be arrested for that pun.

Wii will see if I am correct come beem3.

 

[Chiggs]

Wow. GAF totally skimmed over that, haha. Not that there was much reason to just believe it back then though.

Sort of what concerns me. We're losing it, folks!

 

[MYE]

That better not be the final logo. Awful.

Cleaner look

 

[BY2K]

And this is going right in my E3 Nintendo Thread.

 

[gdt]

Wow, the power of Detective GAF. This makes alot of sense, and I like the name.

 

[parasight]

Beem sounds about right. A name that will eventually catch on, easy to pronounce and unique to the capabilities of the console.

 

[Zomba13]

That might be the ugliest console mockup ever.

Looks like a PS2...

 

[Vox-Pop]

I'm beeming!

 

[SmithnCo]

Stopped reading there.

If you had read more you would have seen this: "Since, we have had a few cleaver names referring to the features the console might have."

 

[Cow Mengde]

Cleaner look

I agree, the logo's lame. It's a clever use of the number 3, but something about it just doesn't click with me.

 

[Error Macro]

Dang. I was hoping for Nintendo Girder.

 

[Lonely1]

I like Vita now...

 

[Buckethead]

Hey look, a mockup that doesn't look awful. In fact, I love it. Too bad Cafe/Beem won't look like this

That does look awful.

 

[JJConrad]

[Cygnus X-1]

Beem Bum Bam ?

LOLOLOL

Good ol' days

 

[Plinko]

Edit: Maybe not.

 

[Chiggs]

Wait a second! That mock-up by IGN was really a submission by someone named Aaron Carr?

http://video-games.findtechnologynews.com/project-cafe-your-wii-2-designs/

Sort of a lucky shot, eh?

 

[kittens]

pew pew beem lazerz.

 

[Synth_floyd]

Why do all the Nintendo names have to do with urine?

Wii
Beam
Stream

lol

and for the record, Wii is still a horrible name for a console

 

[Morokh]

Beem


Beem

...

I kinda like Beem.

Sorta...maybe

edit:

Is this supposed to be the BEEM logo?

it sounds as stupid as Wii
but with the logo it makes kind of sense

so, why not !

 

[WillyFive]

I agree, the logo's lame. It's a clever use of the number 3, but something about it just doesn't click with me.

It looks like something from the PS2 and PSP generation.

 

[intheinbetween]

Beem is slightly better than Current.

imho Beem is way better than Current

 

[venne]

Cleaner look

Yeah, that looks like the work of a 5th grader.

It's lazy and it's trash.

Nintendo has DS and Wii money. They need to do better.

 

[KarmaCow]

Sounds stupid enough to be real.

 

[Lupin the Third]

Guys, the logo was made by the guy on the IGN blog. It's not real.

Couldn't he have just taken it from that other Wii2 blog site?

 

[Mama Robotnik]

**goes to prepare Star Trek gifs.***

That could work.

 

[From The Dust]

Cleaner look

Nintendo Three-eem?

 

[Rad-]

Haha first thing I thought of.

 

[Shiggy]

 

[Keyouta]

"I'm here to place my preorder for the Beem."

Now, will they add "Nintendo" to that name? They just called the Wii, Wii, which was a departure of always having Nintendo in front of the name.

Nintendo Beem

Beem

 

[JJConrad]

Cleaner look

Way to PS3 to be real.

 

[Takao]

Yes.

I didn't know Nintendo makes VCRs.

Also:

Is what that name reminds me of.

 

[MYE]

Guys, the logo was made by the guy on the IGN blog. It's not real.

Maybe its a fake, but the ign dude didnt do it

So I have merged the Nintendo logo with a BEEM logo I found online thanks to a tip from dooks1111
