Like, many of their newer games, and even game consoles, have really dumb names.

I mean, the 3DS and Wii U are good consoles. But the names are just derivatives of DS and Wii. This caused a lot of people to think the 3DS was just another DS and the Wii U was just an attachment to the Wii.

Why couldn't they be original?

And then... omg... Super Mario World 3D... How does that even make any sense?!
The 3DS title, Super Mario Land 3D, it was called "3D" because it was on the 3DS and had a 3D screen. They reuse this title for a completely different game on the Wii U and just change "land" to "world" but then leave on 3D... but... it's not in 3D! The Wii U isn't a 3DS! Yes, it's a 3D platformer, but you should expect that on a home console. The game itself is good but the name...

Gah. Nintendo sucks at naming things lately.

I believe you are confusing Poison with IP.

Poison is when they delete all accounts associated with your em41l.

Poison is when they ban you from creating new accounts...
It was called "poison" because it "poisoned" your browser by putting a cookie on it that prevented you from creating accounts.

I'm 90% certain ROBLOX Poison means deleting accounts associated with your em41l.


The reason I asked was I noticed zilogWeasel is missing as well. Or had you already lost that account?

You can get rid of poisons by deleting the cookie.
I wasn't poisoned, tho. They just removed my account, suddenly!
Like, kind of jerkish. I didn't even do anything bad on that account. .-.

*facepalm*

The 3DS is not a DS.
The 3DS is an entirely new generation, entirely new hardware, an entirely different operating system, and generally a much more powerful.

Stop being dumb.

well what did you expect i mean they named a system DSi
3DS actually makes sense because its a 3D device, and a DS, 3DS

what the hell did the "i" stand for in DSi

"i" bought a new system

False. The last iteration of the DS was the DSi XL.
The 3DS is not part of the DS family.

Here is Nintendo's official page on the 3DS family:
http://www.nintendo.com/3ds

The 3DS family consists of all 3DS variations, including the 3DS, 3DS XL, and the 2DS.

The 3DS is not a DS variation. The DS family consists of the DS, DSi, DS Lite, and some others.

"the xbox was suddenly not affiliated with the name "xbox" anymore when the 360 came out"

The Xbox 360 is not an Xbox either. They are completely different consoles. They are different generations, so they are not part of the same family.

I don't know
Back in ye olden days of SNES, every thing was "Super *game title*"
I thought it was pretty cool.
It was like a title or something.

I mainly use mine for the alarm clock. It has a really good alarm clock.
I also use it when my 3DS goes dead for more gameplay.
I bought the R4 for it so I can run homebrew.

yeah im pretty sure they are part of the same 'family' (when the hell did we start calling them families)
its basically the same system but with new things being added all the time to make it better and better

all of them are basically the same system but with better features as the generations go on

You could insult me if you want, but you'd simply be wrong.
What I have stated is simply fact and you need to accept it.

It's not up for debate. It's for me to explain, and for you to except.

When consoles leave their generation they are no longer part of the same family anymore. The Wii U may have "Wii" in the title but it is not a Wii. It is in the generation after the Wii due to its major hardware and operating system improvements.

Same with the Xbox 360. The Xbox One is not an Xbox 360 nor is it an Xbox.

This is not up for debate. It's for me to explain, and for you to understand.
