How the Name "Wii" Saved This Dude's Social Life

***wraggster*** · August 14th, 2008, 00:24

When the Wii console first came out, everyone and their mother commented on how stupid the name was. It still is to be perfectly honest, but after a couple of years we have grown more accustomed to hearing it. But imagine what it would be like if your legal name was Wii? Believe it or not, a guy named Wii Yatani has had the now famous moniker since birth, and he claims that Nintendo's console has changed his life for the better.

One day his name was synonymous with PISS.

You do the math.
