Nobody called it SNES during the 90s. It's the Super Nintendo.
>>
I remember this fag Nick at school called it the Superness, like super nes
>>
I’m 38 and you’re wrong.
>>
>>12706602
I don it even remember where I first heard it pronounced as snezz, I didn’t have any friends and only spoke to my parents as a kid so it must have been from them
>>
I'm 47 and you're right
>>
I’m 69 and 420.
>>
We’ve really run out of things to talk about, huh?
>>
>>12706649
They need to allow 7th gen asap
>>
>>12706659
6th gen should be banned again
>>
Nobody called it World War I in the 1920s. It's the Great War.
>>
>>12706665
>Nobody called it World War I
The masters of humanity/jews did.
>>
>>12706602
ah yas. the USA clone of Super Famicom.
>>
>>12706602
During the 90s I never knew that ugly yank box existed.
We either had the Snezz, or an imported Japanese Snezz.
>>
This is an American website. Please leave.
>>
>>12706736
luv'd me snezzy (I actually did)
>>
>>12706665
It wasn't called "World War I", but it was often called the First World War.
>>
>>12706736
250,000 bri’ish girls RAPED and yet you OBSESS over Americans lmao
>>
>>12706602
people were saying SNES at least as early as 95
>>
>>12706602
I did. Several other people I know did.
Additionally, I don't see what the point you're making is supposed to be. What people called it in the 90s is no more or less valid than what people call it now.
Shit thread.
>>
>>12706763
Video games? You unhinged melt.
>>
>>12706767
what do you get from lying on an anonymous imageboard
>>
>>12706602
Everyone called "la super" or "el cerebro de la bestia"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6pFqMQN2bo

>>12706779
Couldn't tell you because i'm not lying.
>>
>>12706665
Actually it's called WWX because that's what magazines at the time called it.

No I'm not you fucking yuro fucking faggot zoomer
>>
>>12706996
>no u

Childish behaviour.
>>
>>12706660
that would improve the board a lot.
>>12706616
I'm 47 and OP is right, but also a faggot because the textual term "SNES" is read aloud as "Super Nintendo."
>>
>>12707003
>no ur the zoomer

Childish behaviour.
>>
>>12706865
lmao
>>
>>12706602
We called it Super NES
>>
>>12706602
Nobody played it during the 90s.
Nintendies BTFO
>>
>>12706602
Youkay here, people called it a snez, but most people I knew had a Mega Drive or stuck with the Master System until the Playstation came out
>>
>>12706773
You brought up Americans unprompted and now you wanna cry like a bitch? Fuck you pussy, this is OUR website. Your own government would lock you up for posting here.

Nobody called it Gayga Shitturn in the 90s. However, this is primarily how this console is referred to as today. See where I'm going with this?
>>
>>12706754
Kind of ominous, like they wanted more world wars after it.
>>
>>12706763
UP THOSE NUMBERS, MOHAMMAD
>>
People called it
>Nintendo
>Super Nintendo
>S.N.E.S. (not sness)
Never heard Sness in my life until I saw some yuroids online say it in a vid. I was born in the late 1980s and I've been having sex since the early 00s so don't even try to contradict me faggot.
>>
It was always Super Nintendo growing up. These days I'm more likely to say it as SNES with an s at the end. Snez Sayers are fucked up.
>>
>>12706602
People started calling it the SNES when they started typing.
>>
>>12706602
We called it the "Big Nintendo" since a lot of us also owned the NES, which we called a Nintendo too.
>>
>>12707119
>I've been having sex
Fake gamer. Opinion immediately discarded.

Seethe zoomer. Oldschool nerds were built different. We had more testosterone in your pinky finger than you have in your entire hormonal treatment session. I fucked pristine goth girls that didn't have tats and basically you're a faggot.
>>
>>12706602
I called it the "Super NES", like any white, God-fearing, authentic American did at the time.
>>
Super Nintendo and Regular Nintendo. Simple as.
>>
>>12707214
Oldschool nerds were the nerds that became stereotypes in later times. Fake gamer. Fake nerd.
>>
>>12706602
The Super NES. Get it right or pay the price.
>>
>>12707247
Nintendo was so huge, basically everything was called a "Nintendo", before that video games would simply be called an "Atari". It wasn't uncommon to hear the NES called an "Atari" earlu in it's life or to hear the Genesis called a "Nintendo" or "Sega Nintendo". It wasn't until gen 5 that you heard things being called their proper name universally.
>>
>>12707204
It was "Super Nintendo" and "Regular Nintendo" here.
>>
>>12706602
I think they did in the UK back then right? I'm 40 and I only remember people calling it the Super Nintendo and I never heard Snezz used until YouTube.
>>
>>12707402
This
>>
>>12707357
People were called the N64 the "Nintendo 3D" and "Ultra Nintendo" well into the 5th gen.
>>
you just said
>let's go play GAME NAME
not
>CONSOLE (like a retard)
>>
>>12707247
This. When spoken aloud (as was the style at the time) it's weird to use the acronym.
Old/Regular Nintendo and Super Nintendo.
>>
>>12707494
People called it a Playstation. There was "Atari," which meant any single screen games, and then "Nintendo," which has already been well covered ITT, but when laypeople got used to the idea of 3D games, they called them Playstation (and yes, sometimes "Nintendo Playstation"). To moms, a "play station" sounds like it must be the generic name for a video game console.
>>
We called it the Nintendo or N E S
We called it the Super Nintendo or S N E S
We called it the Sega or Genesis
We called it the Saturn
We called it the Playstation and it was commonly abbreviated as the PSX in ads and mags
We called it the N 64
We called it the PS2
>>
>>12707680
didn't ask
>>
>>12707685
don't care
>>
>12707680
>We called it the N 64
Wrong.
>>
>>12707680
Onezz (pronounced oh-nezz for the original NES) or snezz is what we called it. N64 was just N64 or Nintendo 64.
>>
>>12707989

>>12707119
Born in 85 and yep people said Super Nintendo or said the acronym S N E S. Also referred to the NES as regular Nintendo after the Super Nintendo came out. Pronouncing the acronym as a word never even occured to me till I saw someone on YouTube say it once that became a thing. And even then pronouncing it with a Z sound at the end still was bizarre to me.
>>
>>12706602
Person born 20 years before you here, genuine talented accomplished individual. We called it-----"the ESS-NES". Two syllables.

That is all, you unemployed/wagie millenizoomer toddlers may continue with whatever fiddlefaddle you're getting up to.
>>
I actually do want every single dumb fucking underage faggot that calls consoles by some kind of retarded numeric generation to get hit by a car thobeit
literally no one ever fucking talked like that
we played atari, we played nes, we played snes, we played genesis, we played playstation, we played ps2, we played xbox, we played dreamcast, not one single human being ever said something as stupid as "bOy i sUrE dO lOve aLl tHeSe 6tH gEn cOnsOlEs"
>>
>>12708132
Yeah the console generation shit wasn't a thing until the internet retro gaming boom happened and then everyone started using the generation stuff
>>
>>12707402
this, and we'd just shorten it to "regular" and "super" because no one had a sega
>>
it literally doesn't matter because we call it the snes now
>>
>>12706659
This but unironically.
>>
We had a Master System (Sega Base System) but nobody ever called it the Master System, we just called it a Sega and when the Genesis came out, we would call it a Super Sega because called the Genesis a "Sega" because nobody had a Master System. Otherwise it would just get too confusing.
>>
Did any of you refer to the "Nintendo 64" by its proper name, 64?
>>
it literally doesn't matter because we call it the 67 now
>>
>>12708208
>Entertainment System by Nintendo
>Entertainment System by Super Nintendo
>64 by Nintendo
>>
>>12708218
STFU. "Nintendo" meant "multi screen game console" well into the 90s. We would call the PSX a Nintendo FFS.
>>
>>12708218
this is the way
>>
>>12706602
I lick snez
>>
>>12706602
My mother called every game console we a had a Nintendo.
Even the PS3.
>>
>>12706602
>It's the Super Nintendo.
Real gamers referred to it by its full name: The Super Nintendo Entertainment System Trademark Registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on March 18, 1991 by Nintendo of America Inc. located at 4600 150th Avenue NE, Redmond, WA 98052, The United States of America, Earth.
>>
>>12706602
I've never heard anyone call it a snes in real life. It's mostly just a lazy way that people say it online.
>>
>NES: Nintendo
>Genesis: Sega
>SNES: Super

Simple as

>>12707119
>I was born in the late 1980s and I've been having sex since the early 00s
Same and this is exactly right. If you're not American we don't care what you called it.
