Next Generation Console Names

Post by Plasma2002b »

If you were the creator or a new console system..... what would you call it? Would you go as far as just adding a number to the next version of it? (PS1, PS2, PS3...)

Or would you rename it evertime?

Personally I think it would depend upont the success of the previous console, for instance PS2 is enjoying tremendous popularity and high sales so if I were Sony I'd be sure to put Playstation in the name someplace and I would probably use Playstation 3 just so people know it's the next console and better than Playstation 2. In Nintendo's case I would rename their next system in order to try and get away from their image as a "kiddy" system. For Xbox I think Microsoft spent so much advertising money on the Xbox I would keep Xbox in the name, but I don't think that Xbox 2 would be quite the same as Playstation 3, I think something along the lines of Super Xbox (its corny) Xbox Advance (sounds Nintendoy) Xbox Ultra (sounds like a type of gas)
