Sonnet 8

  • "A gaming revolution is quite near!"
  • Harked Iwata atop his koopa cloud,
  • And soon beneath amassed a cosplayed crowd,
  • All donning shells of green anxious to hear,
  • This grand announcement, Oh what will it be.
  • "The name, the name" a fanboy soon cried out,
  • "And without further my minions devout,
  • I bring to thee the New Nintendo Wii."
  • Then came an uproar of panic and pleas,
  • "Is that what Wii means I gather no doubt,
  • To urinate or to holler about?"
  • And this continued oft through the night breeze,
  • But come E3 you will soon all agree,
  • To preorder this mighty precious Wii.

Notes

Alright, so we're all shocked and horrified by the name, but I'm becoming enamored with the concept, plus my name "Huy" is pronounced "hwee" which rhymes with "Wii" which is pronounced as "Wee" and that's the deal, fosheezee. And the first game I'm gonna buy for my Wii.

I think this is the first in a series of sonnets surrounding this newly monikered gaming deviced called the "Wii". I'll make sure to gather more allusions to Nintendo characters in future pieces.'
