I don't think the comparison applies, Emily just came out of nowhere with no history, Rogersbase is just a youtuber who covers multiple stuff like manga updates but Laura's not only a journalist, but a journalist who was recently blacklisted from a Nintendo event and someone who actually got her stuff right, she knew it wasn't called Wii Something and leaked the day it was at
My basis for comparison is based entirely on the fact that they're all people who spread leaks that actually caught on. Who has the most credibility is irrelevant to me.
I do have to say, though, that guessing the next console wouldn't be using the Wii name isn't all that impressive. In fact, after the Wii U's failure, I'd have been more surprised if they
did advertise it as a direct followup to the Wii U.
Name changes like this aren't unheard of. The Gameboy was successful in every iteration, and they dropped its name for the DS. If they're fine with ditching the name of a brand that works, it's natural they'd be fine with doing the same to one that's past its prime.
Emily and Laura have had a couple of odd moments, but they're both pretty well behaved for the most part.
Can't say I agree.
The way Laura dropped the "news" about Grant Kirkhope doing the Mario RPG soundtrack was quite douchey in my opinion.
Kirkhope: I've been working on a big new project I can't talk about!
Laura: <in direct response> PSSSST I know I said I was gonna stop leaking stuff for a while, but I need more attention straight away, so HEY EVERYONE GRANT'S DOING THE MARIO AND RABBIDS GAME!!!1111
