I know Jonny's gone on record as saying it's not happening, but come on. Reconsider.

www.planetwii.com should really be where we're going around 3 years from now... think long-term, think of the children. It actually looks pretty cool as a site name, and it's shorter to type out as an added bonus.

PlanetWii.com has already been registered, so we couldn't name it that even if we wanted to.

Since the site covers all Nintendo's current systems, why not rename the site to something that invokes that.

UncleBob · « **Reply #6 on:** April 29, 2006, 04:51:05 PM »

www.worldofnintendo.com is just being held by a squatter site... perhaps for the right amount, it could be picked up?

Arbok · « **Reply #7 on:** April 30, 2006, 09:42:34 AM »

I think, as Caliban does, that the name should not be exclusive to any one Nintendo console but should be a vague name for the company as a whole or a creative entity-style name. Afterall, the site doesn't only focus on just the current gen home console for Nintendo, but also the handheld sector and there is no reason to have to change the name again and again for each new generation.

Their always www.Planetreggie.com, www.PlanetIWATA.com, www.PlanetMiyamoto.com, and www.PlanetTY'sFunhouse.com for a long term names.

I noticed that planetn.com is registered but not being used. That one expires August 7 of this year. Maybe you can manage to snag it.

what about WiiPlanetDS.com?

that should last until the next gameboy is announced and then released

I got one, how about WiiDS.com

simple & with double meaning

ruby_onix · « **Reply #19 on:** May 02, 2006, 01:02:46 AM »

PGC clearly needs to pay a consulting firm $75,000 to glue a couple random syllables together and then invent some deep meanings for the newly-created word.

Caliban · « **Reply #20 on:** May 02, 2006, 05:36:00 AM »

theBigN.com, there is a thebign.co.uk so I don't really know if PGC could use theBigN.com.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #21 on:** May 02, 2006, 07:18:34 AM »

Of course they could. As long as ign doesn't complain to ICANN about that looking like theb IGN...

oowii.com

The 'oo' symbolizes both the 'oo' sound the wii naturally elicits, and also the two watchful eyes of the reporting staff at the website. The logo also contains evocative imagery: the two o's are stacked on top of one another to show that the website looks above the competition, and everyone else, to see things that others can't. Together, the two o's also look like the symbol for infinity - to symbolize the infinite possibilities of both the Wii and the website. The 'Wii' in the logo is also surrounded by a racetrack-style line, to evoke both the classic Nintendo logo, and the fact that the website staff look at the Wii from all angles.

When all of these elements come together, we get a name and a logo that powerfully symbolize the multi-dimensional fun seriousness embodied in both the Wii and the staff of this website.

I was eating grapes when I read that. I laughed so hard a grape came out my nose. I hope you're happy.
