Using phonic grammatica...

Singular: "W + EE" - "Goose", "Mouse" or "Sheep"

Plural: "W + EYE" - "Geese" , "Mice: or "Sheep"

I.E. Singular: "I bought a "Wii" (W + EE). or I bought a "Sheep".

Plural: I have many "Wii" (W + Eye) by now. or I Have many "Sheep".

Easy American English.

Just try to put that together using the term "Revoulution".

I'm leaning more towards Wii. As in Moose is the plural of Moose.

But that is incorrect grammar. There is no question, it is Wiis.

And your rationale behind that is...? Just 'cause it sounds funny?

I prefer to use the plural for goose when refering to multiple Wii units. I call them Wiise.

I think when you get right down to it, Nintendo had the right idea when they responded to the initial question. The correct pluralization of Wii should be "Wii systems" or "Wii consoles".
