Kotaku Stalku: Nolan Bushnell Dislikes the "Wii" Moniker

At Wired's party, I had a chance to snuggle up close to Pong creator Nolan Bushnell.

ME: "Did you check out the show?"
BUSHNELL: "No, I haven't had a chance. I just got in."
ME: "What are you interested in?"
BUSHNELL: "Some peripherals, mostly."
ME: "What do you think of the Wii's name?"
BUSHNELL: "It's horrible, but it'll work. I bet they ran into some problems with the Revolution name."
ME: "Whaddaya mean? Somebody had it?"
BUSHNELL: "Yeah, probably. That's what I think. The name 'Revolution' is too good."
