I actually like 4k. It's simple and easy to say in multiple languages.

:P

Wii-U-Mii-Us! lol

I do think that the Playstation is the coolest name ever for a console (well, I did think Turbografx sounded pretty boss back then)! And it's been very easy to identify the new Sony as the PS1/2/3/4. It's simple, communicates its purpose, and it's easy for the public to follow. Although at some point that will need to stop, I can't imagine being excited for the name "Playstation 12".

Anyway, I think Nintendo needs a naming convention where future consoles can easily be named 2,3, etc... I do not think aggressive and action words, like Fortress and Storm, are right though. And even though it sounds cool, I don't think Revolution is the way to go either. It needs a simple name that everyone can relate to.

I like "Nintendo 4k". It's simple and has a techy kind of name. However, I do think it could cause some confusion as to whether the system can play games on TVs other than 4k. I also can't think of what the follow up to that would be. The 4k-2? The 5k?

I'm thinking Nintendo should revisit a popular name, find a way to re-brand and modernize it, and find an easy way to follow it up. Basically, I'm saying let's get back to the NES brand. Call it the NES-something. Or Ultra NES, Hyper NES, New NES, NES 2. I don't know, but something like that.

Pretty much. Also throw in the high chance of pissing off not only the audience who has interest in it/owns one, but their own developers and partners. Kiss Retro, Monolith, and any probability of any third party support for any future Nintendo system goodbye.

If by "these people" you mean the fickle people who bought the Wii and ignored the Wii U, they want cheap bubble gum entertainment. Emphasis on the cheap. They still like the quick and accessible type of games Wii had, but on mobile devices and tablets they can get even more of those, and get them for mere pennies, compared to the full price titles on Wii.

A 2016 or so new console makes perfect sense. Gamecube released in 2001, and Wii released just five years later in 2006. Wii U released in late 2012, so late 2016 would make sense with all the comparisons between the GC and Wii U as far as their shared irrelevance to the market at large. But they have to hang in there at least four/five years, as Sega's quick killing off of the Saturn showed, you can kill your core fan base by not giving them what they perceive as a good amount of time for their investment. Like Sega, Nintendo thrives on it's core fan base, they can't survive without them unless they recapture the lightning in a bottle that was the Wii.

But the Wii was wildly successful for it's few first years based on catching the attention of incredibly fickle people with short attention spans who have just moved the hell on. So that's unlikely.

Nintendo Supernova.

Honestly though I have no idea. I do like the Revolution name still like others have said.

I don't think that's a good idea... but if the situation won't change dramatically, I can see them having a shorter life cycle.

Revolution. We never got it. XD
