Hay I never knew the word "wee" was used in south africa too in the same way as the Uk.

in that case nintendo deffinately! should've thought out the name for their console a bit more carefully.

Beware the grue!

Well, here in South Africa, wee does also share that meaning, and suppose if you're scottish, then there's even another one - and you wonder why everyone's so interested in the wee things in life...?

Stay well

Well what is even worse Jacob, is that wee, in British slang actually means urine, rather the same way pee does in America.

So whenever I hear adverts for "wee" people talking about how much fun they're having with their wee, that people should really "get a wee" or even that "wee is accessible"

Well as you can imagine they sound pretty funny!

Nintendo really should've investigated that one first, though there were some amusing adverts that played on the fact when the wii came out, asking people if they needed a wee!

Beware the grue!

Keeps making me think of a relatively similar abbreviation - WWII = world war two...maybe the WII games will end up blowing up the world...?

LOL!
