Best Name for a Console

Well, what with the announcement of the Revolution's new name "Wii," I had an idea. Which console had the best/coolest name?

Post which one you think, and give a reason.

I thought Dreamcast had an awesome name. For some reason, it gave a good vibe for me, like it had so much potential.

Now post yours. cool

(BTW, a search turned up nothing. So don't shoot.)

EDIT: And, to add on to this, which video game console do you think had the worst/stupidest name?

Wii is pretty dumb, but I don't know if it's the worst.

Yeah, 64 was a good name, once it was shortened to the number. Simple and sweet.

I like 360, too, and I thought Gamecube sounded cool. Playstation is too bland, in my opinion, but I'm sure there are others who think otherwise.

GameCube - great name for a cube that play games
Sega Mega Drive - just think it sounds cool
Nintendo 64 aka 64 - so simple and also exciting name
Nintendo Revolution - nice to hear a new word instead of another number (Playstation 2, Playstation 3, X-boX 360), although it now is called Wii.

The next Nintendo is not called the Revolution. The offical name has been named...Wii (pronouced We). If it was me I would have stuck with Revolution. Wii...people will be embrassed to ask for that in stores unless you're 8.
