We had the Wiimote, which sounded a lot better than Nintendo's official "Wii Remote".
Before that, we had the Cubetroller. Although I might have been the only one who used that one.
So how about the controller of Wii U? Nintendo's calling it the "New Controller" at the moment, but we all agree that sounds crap. So how do we call it?
Utroller?
Contrablet?
ContrUller?
uDraw? oh wait!
Any ideas? Let's pick the best one and then spread it all around the internet!

I'm for Utroller. Sounds extremely funny to me, but in an awesome way. That and since we're going to write it a whole lot, the shorter the name the better.
Excessive speculation leads to unrealistic expectations, which ultimately lead to disappointment.

Place smells like a ripe distillery, with a whiff of halitosis and urine.

Online!I have a tendency to call controllers 'pads', so I quite like U-pad.
Actually, I'm quite pleased with that one. Its obvious similarities to the iPad in both looks and name make U-Pad (or uPad?) quite fitting imo.

U-pad, I like it. Except for the "-", it makes it harder to write.
But uPad looks too much like iPad... and now that we've heard Nintendo was making this controller before the iPad was even announced, we don't want that.
UniPad is also pretty nice when you give it a thought. Uni because it's an all-in-one controller.
Gief more options!

Online!iPad never popped into my head until after I'd thought of that name, but I think it fits well. At least, I think I'll be typing it like that, nice and easy. And yeah, I'm pretty much just calling it 'the U' as well.

Also, UniPad is Un-iPad.

WiiPad, uPad, uTablet, Utroller.
On another note... I wonder if the shop for the Wii U will be known as the uStore/UStore?

They'll have us all talking like toddlers by calling it the Scwiin.
This is an art attack!

The U's controller?
'Wii U' sounds awkward. I'm going to call it 'the U'

Thats already taken... by ME!
If the console is still going to be named WiiU, I would call it the U-Pad or the Wiitabix
Marzy ftw.
