The Revolution isn't dead

Most of us know that before the Wii was released it was codenamed Revolution. Some of us remember when Nintendo released the name Wii and how dissappointed everyone was with it, and how rumors immediatly sparked that it was a fake or a prank. I'm noticing several games that are using the word Revolution like how "Super" or "64" was used in the past. For example:

Pokemon Battle Revolution
Mercury Meltdown Revolution
Victorious Boxers: The Fighting Revolution
SAN-X All-Star Revolution
Mobile Suit Gundam Revolution

Maybe not all these are using the word Revolution becuase it was the codename, but some definatly are. Unlike codenames like Dolphin or Project Reality, the Revolution name seems to be here to stay.

Or the names of those titles are subject to change.

Thats a good point, but I still don't think so. Especially Pokemon Revolution and Mercury Meltdown Revolution which have released recent updates from the developers and still continue to use that name. Its been a while now since the name Wii was released.

I believe when they released the name of the pokemon game for the wii they gave a reason for the pokemon revolution name. And it wasn't related to the console code name. Mercury Meltdown I have no Idea though.

Revolution seemed the better choice at the time but Wii just sticks to you.

They may have ran out of room on the controller and console for revolution lol. They barely fit Wii.
