  on NPR someone referred to the Wii as a "game deck." I'm not sure I've heard that term in some 20+ years, and even then it was by my dad or some other gamus ignoramus adult, amazing to see such a term survive for so long and be used by the same demographic! (the guy was definately a non-gamer middle aged reporter type.
