It’s pretty far from a realistic military shooter at this point, huh?

They’ve always been more about Hollywood realism than actual realism.

I thought my family were the only ones! Must have been to differentiate it from the “Super Nintendo” we also had.

I … dont think I ever realised they called it Ness and not Nes.

BreadstickNinja,

Ness was first introduced on the Super Famicom. Though he only really got popular when Super Smash Bros came out on the NES64.

In my language we just called it small Nintendo.

In the UK and Ireland, we call the SNES “the Snez”, but I’ve never heard it said that way in the States. Is that peculiar to this part of the world?

Most of the time I hear S N E S (each letter pronounced individually) or Super Nintendo.

I have heard “the Snes” (pronounced with an S sound instead of a Z), but I didn’t hear that commonly until much later, after it was considered a retro console.

dillydogg,

I live in the US and me and all my friends pronounce SNES as SNess. (And NES as Ness) for what it is worth. It seems to be somewhat common as my friends who grew up on the other side of the country say it this way too.

I know too many people for whom „a Nintendo“ means a Nintendo DS. Perhaps a generational thing.

AI_toothbrush,

Same for me and most people i know a nintendo is a ds(and the ds and 3ds are kinda the same for most of them)

Blackmist,

There are undoubtedly people out there who still use “Nintendo” to describe literally any videogame system ever made.

dejected_warp_core,

It absolutely is.

As a kid, everyone’s parents (boomers) called NES cartridges “tapes”. Considering their generation had a lot of experience with 8-track, cassette, and VHS/Betamax, it kind of makes sense. I guess every generation has this.

accideath,

Yea, for my dad, everything you use a controller with is a PlayStation and every handheld is a gameboy. Funnily enough, he never had either one and I also didn’t have a PlayStation until I have moved out. The only noteable difference for him is the Sega Master System, because he did have that as a child.

tiredofsametab,

everyone's parents (boomers) called NES cartridges "tapes".

My parents were very much boomers and I've never heard this. It was 'games' or 'cartridges',

Anticorp, do games w How did Call of Duty get to this point?

The original one was amazing. I played the entire thing through to the end. So many of the scenes are from real history, that it felt like we were experiencing a part of history. When I watched Saving Private Ryan, I saw many of the same scenes that I had experienced in the game. But with each consecutive release it has become more focused on competitive PVP and selling skins and expansions. It has nothing at all to do with the original game anymore, other than the name, and the fact that they’re both FPS.

sparky,

COD 1 & 2 were excellent games. Man, how far they have fallen.

How is this only blowing your mind now and not the entire past decade or so where this has become the norm for the giant corpo devs like Blizz, EA, and Ubisoft? This has been common long enough that I’ve become completely numb to it now.

Buttflapper,

Because I haven’t been following AAA for the past decade…?

That’s a good policy. I highly recommend sticking with it. 🫠
