I actually really like the name. It rocks.

After the N64, I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually called that, either.

They don't. I'm saying they're approache to marketing a far as the names for their latest headline-grabbing product and the multicoloured products are similar to what products and a name Nintendo made/used just after them.

Ok that was poorly written.

*blames the heat*

I was pointing out the similarity in names between Apples latest big product and the code name for Nintendos new console.

Also in the past Nintendo seemed to have adopted Apples "producing a product in multiple colours" idea.

Yeah sorry for pointing out a few similarties between companies marketing and naming approaches. What was I thinking?

Apple and Nintendo's "quality over quantity" approach is another one for you.

Oh and you know all that "Think Different" stuff? Sums up why I bought my N64 and GC quite well. ;)

As I have always said.

Nintendo are the Apple of the console world.
