Top 5 Console Names?

[nebrazca78]

No matter how good or bad a console is, what are your top 5 favorite coolest console names? Please no one say "Playstation 1".

Mine:

1. Turbo Grafx 16
1. Mega Drive
3. Master System
4. Super Grafx
5. Genesis



.

[Lemmi_Is_God]

1. Genesis
2. Turbo Grafx-16
3. Dreamcast
4. Saturn
5. Jaguar

[RASTAN]

01> Mega Drive (much better than "Genesis" IMO)
02> Super Famicom
03> Turbo Grafx 16
04> Dreamcast
05> Playdia

[Family Computer]

1. PC Engine
2. Game Boy
3. Dreamcast
4. Family Computer / Famicom
5. Playstation

Those are actually in no particular order though. I like PC Engine because it sounds so strange. Playstation was cool at the time, because I couldn't believe Sony was making a new console and the name had a ring to it that only the Japanese could create (like Walkman). Family Computer is also funny. It is almost so normal a name...just 2 really basic words...has a cool ring to it after the fact and famicom sounds nice too.

Turbo Grafx is one of the worst system names to me. Sounds really corny. Also, I agree at Mega Drive sounding better than Genesis but both are pretty good.

[RASTAN]

Turbo Grafx is one of the worst system name to me. Sounds really corny. Also, I agree at Mega Drive sounding better than Genesis but both are pretty good.

See that's where I'm weird. I prefer the name PC Engine, but it doesn't envoke badassery IMO when compared to the "Turbo" prefix to the root word of Graphix, oddly enough. And "Super" as in Super Grafx just didn't have the punch Turbo does either, yet it worked for Super Famicom. Thus I think PC Engine sounds corny but I still prefer the name because I like to stick to original names once I know them. MEGA DRIVE just envokes power, so of course that had to be my #1 pick.

[Damaramu]

Mine are (in no order of importance):

Saturn
Virtual Boy
Mega Drive
Dreamcast
Neo Geo

[Little Samson]

1. Nintendo Revolution (Why did they have to change it?)
2. Saturn
3. Neptune
4. Lynx
5. Jaguar

[Greg2600]

Best: Genesis, Dreamcast, Intellivision, Super Nintendo, Gameboy.
Worst: Saturn, Neo Geo, Adam, Master System, Wii

[GaijinPunch]

I'm of the "Gensis sucks" camp.

1: Dreamcast
2: Megadrive
... those are the only two I really like. I think Turbo Grafx 16 is pretty weak as well (although it's a great system).

[otaku]

No particular order

Saturn
dreamcast
neo geo
wii
wonderswan

I like weird/interesting names generic shit like playstation etc or brand stuff like gameboy just sucks

[tom]

Odyssey
PSOne
Teradrive
Cybiko
Lorraine

worst names: 3DO, CD-i, Jaguar, Nintendo's 'Boy' series, Genesis

[j_factor]

1. Dreamcast
2. Neo Geo
3. Wonderswan / SwanCrystal
4. Vectrex
5. Astrocade

[Pezcore343]

Genesis
Xbox (personally one of my favorite names)
Famicom
Dreamcast
Virtual Boy

No particular order, although I think Xbox has to go at the top. It's got a nice solid ring to it. Famicom is also a favorite of mine.

[bangtango]

In no order, I like the following:

-Atari Jaguar (cool name for the time)
-Sega Saturn
-Sega Genesis (the name turned out to be pretty accurate, didn't it?)
-Nintendo 64 (because of the actual number, sounds like a movie sequel)
-Turbografx 16 (sounds, or sounded, futuristic)

Honorable Mention:
-Gameboy (just seems too easy to pick, so I left it off my top 5)

Almost picked the 3DO, too, but the name is just too darn short. Plus the other systems above, even the TG16 (i.e. PC Engine), were at least successful in some part of the world.

[MF_Luder]

5. Amiga CD
4. Odyssey
3. Astrocade
2. Genesis
1. Dreamcast


I don't get the people who have said "Sega Saturn" though. Love the system, but I think there is some bias creeping in there, because the name certainly is not anything more than generic. If the Playstation was named "Sony Saturn" instead it wouldn't have made any of these lists (in fact, it'd probably make a "worst names" list instead). Yeah, bad example, because Sega goes better with Saturn than Sony does, but it's not too far off.

But since the Saturn is so popular among retrogamers I think there is some bias causing people to have the inability to realize how dumb that name actually is. Fortunately Sega made up for it with their 16 and 128 bit consoles, which both top my list (and personally I prefer the name Genesis over Mega Drive, but it's a close call).

[Vectorman0]

5.) Astrocade
4.) Nuon
3.) Lynx
2.) Odyssey
1.) Vectrex

[namzep]

1. Turbo Grafx
2. CDX (just sounds like some sort of awesome weapon)
3. Dreamcast
4. Astrocade
5. Atari Jaguar

Oddly enough, I'm a fairly big Nintendo Fanboy but most of their systems sound very generic (even DS, which sounds sort of neat, just means Dual Screen).

[Cloud121]

1. Dreamcast
2. MegaDrive
3. Jaguar
4. Lynx
5. PC Engine

Honorable Mention: Nomad.

[Kevincal]

Jaguar

Neo-Geo

Genesis

Wii

Turbo Duo

[Sweater Fish Deluxe]

Colecovision
Dreamcast
PlayStation
Famicom
Telstar

EDIT: Hm, yeah, maybe Astrocade, too. Especially "Bally Astrocade."


...word is bondage...

[Rob2600]

Worst names:

1. PlayStation: sounds like a Fisher-Price baby toy. I can't believe adult men take this name seriously.
2. Dreamcast: too wimpy
3. GameCube: too generic
4. Saturn: too abstract
5. Neo-Geo: too pretentious

When I worked at a video game store at the mall, I dealt with adults who constantly botched the names of game consoles. I've been asked about the Dreamcaster, the Comcast, the Dreamweaver, the Dreammachine, the GameBox, the PlayBox, the PlayBoy, etc.

They'd also botch the names of games: PokerMan, PokeMan, Residential Evil, Residential Devil, Dino (pronounced "deeno") Crisis, Parasitic Eve, Chiffon Filter, Grand Auto Theft, Crash Bandicot, Dragon Balls, Grand Tourism, etc.

[diskoboy]

My top 5

5. Sega Dreamcast
4. Turbografx 16
3. Sega Master System
2. Sega Genesis
1. Odyssey

And I'll probably get shot for this - but I hate the word "Famicom". It sounds so generic.

[AMG]

1) Genesis
2) Saturn
3) Dreamcast
4) GameCube
5) N64

[DigitalSpace]

Nintendo Entertainment System
Super Nintendo
PlayStation
Sega CD
Gamecube

[Family Computer]

Sega CD as a top 5 console name? Can you explain why?

[CosmicMonkey]

Megadrive and Mega CD. The whole 'Mega' thing makes it sound really....Mega. Therefore making it sound interesting; a good name for many reasons. Thinking about it, we'll also include MultiMega and WonderMega in there too.

Super Famicom. Even to this day those words still sound so cool. And a UK SNES may look exactly the same as a SuperFami, but it's those important words on the front of the console that make all the difference.

Dreamcast. Cool name, another bit of good marketing.

Can't think of anymore that I'd count as really good. Although these Chinese pirate mateys seem to come up with great names for Famiclones.

[Sweater Fish Deluxe]

Sega CD as a top 5 console name? Can you explain why?
Going by his other choices, I would say that DigitalSpace prefers names that are also descriptions of the system and you have to admit that "Sega CD" is an accurate description. Not like Saturn or Jaguar or other names like that which I'm sure have led to all sorts of confusion over the years.

Perhaps DigitalSpace was mauled on Christmas morning 1993 by the jaguar his parents mistakenly bought him and has forever regretted not just asking for a Sega CD instead.


...word is bondage...

[BydoEmpire]

1. Dreamcast - it casts your dreams into reality! Or something. It just sounds whimsical, powerful and cool.

2. Intellivision - "Intelligent Television" - I thought it was just cool and clever, and worked in with marketing push of the Inty being more "sophisticated" than the 2600.

3. Vectrex - good way of describing the system. Sounds bad ass, too.

4. Super Nintendo - it was a Nintendo, but SUPER! Not super original or unique by any means, but it just seemed to work.

5. Wii - unique, sort of clever, and although I certaintly thought it was stupid initially, it's grown on me.

[thegardentool]

Here's some of my favorites in no order:

Super Nintendo
As BydoEmpire said, it wasn't just a Nintendo but it was the Super Nintendo. It showed in just the name that it was more powerful. Superlatives are super great.

Sega Saturn
Sega had a history of using planets as their working title. I've read some interesting stories about why the name was used. One of my favorite stories compares CD-ROMs to the rings of Saturn. Also, the arcade equivilant version of the Saturn takes the name of the planet's largest moon, Titan. It's a good name when looking deeper into it.

Neo Geo
It's a great catchy name with great recongization. It was good for SNK to use the name for both the home and arcade versions. It's a shame that the home version was so expensive and out of reach for most people.

Atari Lynx
It's just a different sounding name that catches the ear. I don't know why I like it really.


Some of the worst in my opinion:

Sony Playstation 2 and 3
While the Playstation was an original name, Sony should have changed the name a little bit more than adding a number to the end. To me, it shows a bit of stagant progression and rehasing the same games over.

Nintendo 64
I don't find this name as attractive as some of the others of Nintendo. At least most of the games carried the "64" title so a good marketing idea I guess.

Xbox 360
If you do a full circle, 360 degrees, you end up where you started. While it is a better name than Xbox 2, it makes even less sense than Nintendo 64. With all the money Microsoft has to spend, they could have hired a marketing firm to find a better name.

Sega CD
Yes it does accruately describe what it does but it doesn't say anything more about it than that. Just by looking at the name, you don't know it is an add-on for an exisitng system. Sega could have came up with a much better way to describe it as part of the Genesis family.

Sweater Fish Deluxe nailed it. In the Sega CD's case, it's simplistic yet perfectly fitting. CD-based gaming systems were the next hot thing, and thanks to the Genesis, Sega was becoming a household name. It was Sega, on CD! What were you waiting for, Nintendo to make one? LOL

(Also, round the xmas of 93, I was too happy with the SNES I got for my birthday to ask for another console. Although I did ask for Tecmo Super NBA Basketball and got Bulls vs. Blazers instead.)

[Kevincal]

I forgot all about the "Phantom"... ;) That's a cool name for a system. Ultra 64 was dope, too. Nintendo should have stuck with it...

[Kevincal]

And just think, if the N64 DD had done much better than it did. And if it was named the "Ultra 64 DD", everyone would think of huge tits when they heard the name. :D

[dubiouscubanx]

1. Genesis
2. Turbo Grafx 16
3. Famicom
4. Pippin
5. Odyssey²

[Kevincal]

Pippen is a pimpen' name... ;)

[Tron 2.0]

1.Neo-Geo
2.PC-Engine
3.Famicom
4.MegaDrive
5.Turbo Duo

[Icarus Moonsight]

1) Wii (I was all WTF when it broke, but in retrospect it's much better than Revolution or the inevitable shortening to Rev or Revo that would have occured - Nintendo Revo *shudder*)

2) Nomad (camel and turbin optional)

3) Genesis/Mega-Drive

4) Saturn (beautiful planet, beautiful console)

5) Dreamcast (although Katana would have secured a top spot for eternity with me. If Sega then would have dubbed the VMU "Wakazashi"... *swoon*)

[Vectorman0]

Wow, I forgot about the Nomad. I was always very fond of that name.

And with that, I am moving this to classic discussions as it has turned into a great topic.

[Cinder6]

Favorites, in no order:

Genesis
10x better than Mega Drive, IMO, which just sounds like a generic knock-off product from someone trying to make a quick buck on the re-emerging video game market.

Master System
It just sounds cool and...superior, I guess.

Vectrex
This one should need no explaining. The only reason I even started looking at getting one is because of the name.

PC Engine
A cryptic and somewhat confusing name, it nevertheless sounds good.

Neo Geo
Actually, I just refer to it as either the AES or MVS, depending on which version I'm indicating. I like the sound of either acronym. An honorable mention, following the neat-sounding acronym train of thought, is the MSX, but I'm not sure if it's really considered a console or not.

Least favorites:

Nintendo 64:
An uninspired name that spawned countless games with "64" in the title, which just rubbed me the wrong way. Strangely, I wasn't bothered as much by "Super" back when the SNES came out. I was younger then, though, so maybe that's it.

Wii:
This name just makes me angry, and that's all I'm going to say about it.

Mega Drive:
I already said why. It sounds like a cheap knock-off.

Xbox 360:
I've honestly heard this explanation from many different people as to what the name means: "It signifies that Microsoft's turning around the gaming industry!" The name sucks because it's showed me how so many people have no concept of rudimentary geometry. :) 180 would have been better, but still awkward. The only reason they didn't call it the Xbox 2 is because it would sound lesser than the PS3, IMO.

GameCube:
It's not actually a cube, the liars. :)

[Barbarianoutkast85]

These arent in any specific order, but here is my top 5;
1. Sega Genesis
2. Playstation 2
3. Super Nintendo
4. Sega Saturn
5. Sega Dreamcast

So I guess im a Sega fan-boy for the most part.

[XianXi]

1. Neo Geo
2. Famicom
3. Turbo Duo
4. Dreamcast
5. Virtual Boy

And I still prefer Nintendo Go over Wii

[Xizer]

1. Genesis
2. Dreamcast
3. GameCube
4. Saturn
5. Xbox

I always loved Sega's console names.

[grolt]

See for me it is tough to isolate the name from the company and the logo. To me it's those three things together that make the magic, not just the system name alone. While some people have contested the generic nature of "Saturn", when you couple it with Sega and that amazing blue sphere logo, to me there is nothing better. The way these things were marketted surely plays a role too, since whenever I think of the name "Sega Saturn", I picture the fat bald guy from the Choice Cuts disc yelling it out. How cool is that? If it were Gilbert Gottfried saying it, it'd sound a lot less cool.

But I'll play nice...here's my list:

1. Sega Saturn (for all the reasons above)
2. TurboGrafx 16 (has a great ring to it, PC Engine sounds like a circuit board by comparison)
3. Sega Master System (probably alone in this, but I really like the generic and overly long name; it adds class and certainly gives you a feeling of empowerment)
4. Nomad (brief and encapsulates the essence of the system - it's portable; the conotations to Indian tribalism also helps suggest that "edgy" 16-bit Sega image)
5. PlayStation (there's a reason why Sony continues to use it, like the Nomad it describes itself simply with one conjuring coupling of letters)

[Rob2600]

here's my list:

5. PlayStation (there's a reason why Sony continues to use it, like the Nomad it describes itself simply with one conjuring coupling of letters)

Am I really the only person who thinks "PlayStation" sounds like the name of a Fisher-Price baby toy? Again, I can't believe adult men take this name seriously.

[c2000]

i.n.p.o;

*Sega Nomad (good call from Icarus, forgot about it)
*Sega Saturn
*Atari Jaguar
*Atari Lynx
*Gamecube

Best of all would've been Titan, if it were used as console name (instead of the arcade unit).

[Pantechnicon]

No order here:

1. Lynx - Reminds you of one of systems better functions in that it "links" to others.
2. PSOne - I'm talking strictly about the little guy. I liked this whole campaign. It was like Sony was saying, "We have a new system on the market, but we're still mighty proud of our first effort, so here it is with a new name and a cool smaller packaging."
3. Game Boy - Your little buddy that you can take with you and play games with. I've said this in other threads, but back during its release, the concept of a portable cartridge-based system was a Godsend. "Game Boy" says it all.
4. System X - This was the prototype name for the Atari 5200. Too bad they didn't stick with it. Sounds almost scary: "Do you have the cojones to handle System X?! Well, do you, punk?!" System X > X-Box.
5. Intellivision/Famicom (tie) - I'm just a sucker for good portmanteaus.

[mnbren05]

Nintendo Revolution, Xbox, Sega Dreamcast, N64, Super Nintendo

[S-Wind]

Since the SEGA Genesis NOMAD has been mentioned, I've included the names of portables as well.

THE GOOD
1) Genesis - Even before I knew what that word meant I thought it sounded awesome!
2) Nomad - It has a badass vibe to it, and it's appropriately clever
3) Jaguar - sleek and powerful wild animal, and/or a nice car
4) Neo Geo - one of the more unique names
5) Lynx - I like it

Honourable Mentions:

Megadrive
Master System

THE BAD

1) PlayStation (2)/(3)- When I first heard that name the first thing that came to mind was either a Playskool play set or a deluxe dildo set
2) Wii - So are you pissing or do you have a tiny dick?
3) Wonderswan - 'nuff said
4) game.com - pathetic attempt at cashing in on the cachet of the dot com boom
5) Dreamcast - lame and fruity. HINT: NEVER have the word "dream" in a console's name!

In no particular order:

Nintendo Entertainment System - yawn
Super Nintendo Entertainment System - super yawn
Nintendo 64 - yawn X 64
Xbox - generic, it screams "We paid a marketing comapny big bucks and they spent 30 seconds coming up with this!
Xbox 360 - ditto, plus stupid numbers in order to prove that you dick is longer than Sony's

[Rob2600]

Xbox - generic, it screams "We paid a marketing comapny big bucks and they spent 30 seconds coming up with this!

I don't like the name Xbox either, but to Microsoft's credit, at least the X stands for something: DirectX. The Xbox uses APIs based on DirectX 8.1.

[xplics]

Mine:

1.Genesis
2.Playstation
3.32X (hey the name is cool)
4.Bull Dog (supposed to be first name for 64 bit 3do before the M2 title)
5.Saturn

[TheGam3r]

1.Game Boy
2.Playstation

[Tupin]

Not in any order.

1. Famicom
2. Sega Genesis
3. Gizmondo
4. Dolphin (GCN dev name)
5. Sega 32X

[Astrocade]

Five best sounding:

1. Vectrex. Sounds like something Darth Vader would use to fry you with.
2. Genesis. Just has an authoritative, ethereal ring to it.
3. Master System. The closest a console has ever come to being called "Pimp Machine".
4. Jaguar. It sounds like it wants to rip out your throat.
5. Colecovision. Hey, don't ask me why, it just sounds cool.

Honorable mentions to Odyssey, Saturn, and Fairchild Channel F.


Five lamest sounding:

1. Playstation. It sounds like a kids toy. And it rhymes with "gay".
2. Wii. "Hey! I'm playing with my Wii! Get it? I'm pla... oh forget it."
3. Megadrive. Ultra mega awesome super redundant cliche console. It's like Sega just didn't even try with that one.
4. Xavix Port. Is it a console or a USB peripheral? Who cares?
5. SNK Neo Geo. Great system, boring name. Minus points for all the rich kids that could afford this system back in the day and insisted that it was a "Snick Nee-yo Ghee-yo".

[Auto-Fox]

1 - Sega Saturn.
2 - Flare II (Atari Jaguar dev name).
3 - Atari Jaguar.
4 - TurboGrafx-16.
5 - Sega 32X.

[Misto]

1 - Odyssey
2 - Genesis
3 - TurboGrafx - 16
4 - Vectrex
5 - Gamecube

[Nebagram]

1. Lynx
2. Genesis
3. Nomad
4. Vectrex
5. urgh, I dunno. Saturn I suppose.

Lynx is clearly top as it contains an X (which are cool, as Bender has taught us) but in a subtle, non-intrusive way.

[Solertia]

1. Genesis
2. Nomad
3. Saturn
4. Dreamcast
5. Master System

Damn, Sega sure knows how to name a console! :D Sad that we don't have cool names for systems nowadays. At least "Wii" is original, despite being a terrible name. The others are just "Remember that other console we made? this is it's successor, the [previous console] [number]."

[Joe West]

1...neo-geo
2...turbo-16
3...pc engine
4...psx
5...dreamcast

[Steve W]

Jaguar - it sounds fierce and feral.
Intellivision - makes it sound like your TV set will get an IQ upgrade just from hooking it up.
Cosmos - Atari's ill-fated handheld, with it's holographic imagery. A name as mysterious and as distant as the console turned out to be.
Adventurevision - 'nuff said.
Laseractive - there's something about the combination of the words 'laser' and 'active' that becomes greater than the sum of its parts.


Honorable mentions go to:
Ultravision
Panther
Vectrex
Astrocade
VideoBrain
Arcadia 2001


DIShonorable mentions for terrible names go to:
Cassettevision
R-Zone
Pippin
RCA Studio II (hey RCA, where's the Studio I?)
Game Boy (just a stupid, childish sounding name)
PlayStation (also childish sounding, but a little more grown up than Game Boy)
FM Towns Marty (an odd collection of words to describe a console)

[Damaramu]

My faves (in no particular order):

Dreamcast
Neo Geo
PC Engine
Saturn
Famicom

[ButtonMasher123]

1. Turbografx-16
2. Game Boy
3. Genesis
4. Dreamcast
5. Saturn

[Joe West]

Aes Home Console
Mvs Console
Turbo Duo Modded
playstation 3
Psx modded

[ToddofDoom]

1. Mega Duck. Most insane name for a game system ever.
2. 32X sounds pretty cool.
3. N64. Something about putting letters and numbers makes them sound cool.
4. Amiga is pretty cool sounding name.
5. Odyssey is a nice name too.


Worst:
Sega CD: It sounds like an acronym for personals. Like it stands for something like Single Experienced Gender Ambiguous Crossdresser. You know if I read something like: "Wanted: Cheap SEGA CD for Role-playing" I'd think: Kinky.

Virtual Boy: Sounds kind of like a sex toy.

Cougar Boy: Definitely sounds like a sex toy.

PSX: I hate it when someone calls a Playstation a PSX or "Playstation eXperimental" it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand-up.

[~日本~Densha~]

1.Famicom
2.Dreamcast
3.Sega Mark III
4.PC-Engine
5.Neo Geo

I think that PC-Engine sounds much more exotic and better than turbo grafx but thats just my opinion ^_____^

[BetaWolf47]

-Neo-Geo
-Saturn
-Dreamcast
-Vectrex
-I can't think of a fifth

[jms5118]

Dreamcast
Atari Jaguar(not many people agree but i really like the name for some reason)
Super Nintendo(Not that original but after growing up with the "nintendo" as most people simply called it hearing the name SUPER nintendo got me excited as a kid.)
Vectrex
Intellivision

[Richter Belmount]

1.Turbo Duo
2. Neo Geo
3. Super Nintendo
4. Playstation
5.Master System

[DOAsaturn]

It seems people are really split on Dreamcast as a name. I happen to love it, very unique name compared to the last couple generations of consoles (sixth and seventh).

Here's my list, in no order

Dreamcast
Jaguar
Lynx
Master System
3DO (I dunno, it kinda rolled off the tongue easy)

[Ro-J]

My list, in order.

1. Master System (simple. powerful.)
2. NES (smooth, flows quickly from the tongue)
3. Genesis (love the "in the beginning..." vibe, although the name should have predated the Master System)
4. Atari (IMO, refers solely to the 2600. Whenever anyone asks if you have an Atari, they mean the 2600)
5. Nomad (...vagabond, call me what you will...)

[buzz_n64]

1. Genesis
2. Neo-Geo
3. Jaguar
4. TurboGrafx
5. N*Gage
