Do the Nintendo executives go to the bathroom, take a crap, and then turn around and see what it spells out as their tightly, coiled a-la-surprise  bobs about in the toliet bowl water?

The "!!M" or Wii upside-down...at N-philes, and many other websites including

 http://www.wiiloaded.com/portal.php

Well maybe not many other sites...seeing as I cannot list them off. But I'm sure if you throw it into a search enginge, they'll be other sites as well.

So most agree that "!!M" is the messenger system or an IM like our beloved wii-volution site has informed us. Then they go onto say WiiPointer has something to do with the wii-mote or internet/friends system. WiiPointer could be the official name for the "wii-mote" or it could be the little pointer displayed on the screen when you go online with the Wii......go figure.

And WiiCulture? No rumors on WiiCulture. No one has any idea what this means. Its probably Nintendo making up a name for all the WiiManiacs to say when they actually do pry themselves away from the wii....I live WiiCulture....

Yeah? Or Perhaps not. Its probably something to do with the online thing. It seems that Nintendo has been so hush-hush about the Wii going online, that all three of these names which are all rumors could have been all made up or special terms for the Wii's ability to go online. It has the same likeklihood to be a rumor or truth, but seemingly truth as of now since many sites are covering it.

What do you think?

!!M sounds cool, i im?,

ik they !, just saying its better then "excalmation point, exclamation point, m"

Even though I think !!M is just as dumb as the name Wii and that perhaps !!M is just some made up crap seeing as it is Wii upside-down.

But BubyDudy does shed some light...afterall Nintendo had to explain its rationale on "Wii"....what if "!!M" is another stupid name that they came up with that will later need some rationale as well like BubyDudy puts it "I IM."

i read one thing and ti was talking about it jsut being copyright reasons, like if someone copyrights !!M they can make it Wii and can say they are just using their name upside down.

Yeah I hear ya. To me it's just for protection. What spawn said seems more realistic then it being the abbreviation of an IM service.

but they also had stuff that makes gaming simpler such as various controller sizes for people of different hand sizes, and comfort, and adapters that work with multiple systems.

me and my friends havent had any problems with the mad catz nintendo stuff, the little mini controllers, gameboy car adapters, battery packs, plugs, and n64 adapters.

back on topic
the article i read about !!M said that Nintendo never registered them in the usa/europe , only japan unless they did recently
