What do you call the NES and SNES?

I'm curious because there are a number of ways to name the systems.

I say NESS and Super NESS

while others will say each individual letter like EN EE ESS

As much as it deserves to be called Ness (earthbound ftw), it's an abbreviation and should be pronounced EN EE ES.

The N.E.S is/was just called "The Nintendo" (or regular Nintendo) The S.N.E.S is/was called "The Super Nintendo" with a pronouced tone on the word "Super" to distinguish it from "regular" Nintendo. This was relevant when the N.E.S/S.N.E.S & Gameboy were all on the market at the same time. 1991-1995.

Back during the days of the long wait for the then "Nintendo Ultra 64" to be released...

I say Ness and Super Nintendo.Litchie

I call them both "Enn Ee Ess" and "Ess Enn Ee Ess" as well as "Nintendo" and "Super Nintendo".

I don't think NES or SNES were meant to be pronounced as Ness and Sness. I always called them regular Nintendo and Super Nintendo. It is cool that other people are mentioning that they also called NES regular Nintendo. I am the only one I know who calls it that.

Nintendo and Super Nintendo. Sometimes I say EN E ESS and As En E S.

I say "Ness" and "Sness". Sometimes I say "En Ee Ess", but never "Super En Ee Ess."

I say NESS and Super NESS

I say the same thing.

nintendo and super nintendo

In Spain I've only heard them being named "la nintendo" and "la super nintendo". Not too original:roll:

i say "old 8bit nintendo" or "original nintendo" and "super nintendo" when talking to MOST people. Sometimes i'll call the original "N.E.S." but i dont think i ever call the Super Nintendo anything else. saying "Ess Enn E Ess" sounds strange to me.

I pronounce them as "ness" and "sness"

i call the NES Nintendo and the SNES Super Nintendo

first either nes or nintendo for the snes it was always im going to go play the super

Nintendo and Super Nintendo...
