Switch is a pretty good name and a very common word surprisingly underused in branding as we now understand.
PlayStation is a good name too.
Now, Xbox is and always was an idiotic name. What it meant originally was "The DirectX-running box", and then they whipped some marketers and forced them to think up an image for this, and they came up witht he big "alien"-green X-Files-themed knockoff.

They know their customer base is retarded morons

Why be creative when you can shovel shit faster and more efficient without it ?

To me, Nintendo Switch sounds more like an slogan ("Yeah, Switch into Nintendo!") than a real console name. But the Wii/Wii U and their latest console names were simply lacking, or done by a 6 year old.
Playstation sounds nice, but just adding a number at the end of the name is completely meh. What is this? Royalty?
And yeah, Xbox...

You know I've seen people make fun of like parents and the uninformed for getting consoles names wrong but in retrospect video game consoles have retarded names. Let's not even touch down on the disaster that was Sega's naming schemes.

Nah, Wii U works to the same effect as 2 does the problem was that they fucked up the marketing and focused more on the tablet making people think it was a peripheral rather than a new console.

>>381330428
A 2 in the name would have clarified any issues though. Just like with the Playstation 2, 3, 4.

At least it doesn't lead to confusion like the Wii U and Xbox One X do. Even the most braindead normalfag can easily understand PS4 is better than PS3

Yet, no one made a fuss when the iPhone 6 / 6 Plus 6S / 6S Plus and SE came out.

I really wonder how the reaction would be if /v/ was around to react to the Game Boy and Playstation being unveiled. I'd like to witness how many seconds it would take until the first clever anon coined Gaystation.

It didn't take long for people in Sweden to change the Playstation 4 into the Gaystation.

It's one of the more retarded ones IMO

The Playstation names are not retarded at all. They're just boring. But, there is absolutely no confusion over which the newest system is.

You forgot 98 and Millenium.

PSTV makes sense from a marketing prospective, but lacks the multimedia features those others have.

Which reminds me. If I already have a Smart TV, does it help at all if I get an Apple TV?

It's WORDS as usual but it's genuinely funny enough to survive through his terrible delivery.
