What the hell did they call the Wii in France?
>>
french is probably one of the few places the name is positive without juvenile puns.
>>
>>323302439
But it wouldn't in any way convey the meaning they were going for when they came up with the name
>>
>>323302067
They called it "Oui".
>>
>>323302850
Did they actually or are you just making that up

I really want to know
>>
A quarter pounder with cheese
>>
It's called the exact same, "Wii"

Yes, it sounds the exact same as "oui" but that joke was never funny.
>>
>>323303026
Making it up.
>>
>>323303181
It's not a joke in this case, it's a real problem with their name choice in that country since the whole reason they came up with the name was for it to sound like "wii" and the two Is to look like little people
>>
>>323302067
Naturally.

Just as much of a problem as any other country. The only countries where "Wii" sounds like "we" is english speaking countries.
The fact it sounds like "oui" is really not a big deal. If anything it's marketing bonus for delivering an obvious pun.
>>
>>323302067
We call it Wii.
However we call gamegear, gamejeer.

Animation in the last 10-20 years?
For whatever reason, France is going nuts with animation. What the hell is up with that?

Well whatever it is, I hope they continue, because they're pretty good at it. And they make sexy girls.
