I wanna know what person at Nintendo looked at the name for the Nintendo Wii and Wii U and thought "Yeah that's a good idea."
I still despise the Nintendo Wii for all the garbage it brought and it's forced, gimmicky motion control nonsense. I'm just in-between with the Wii U for it at least being competent even though it lacked focus from a development standpoint. Had better games than the Wii tho.

The Xbox One's name was named that way because Microsoft were being a bunch of pretentious idiots and acting all cool by saying "This will be the console that this becomes one device that addresses all the entertainment that you want to enjoy on your TV."
The Wii and Wii U lose points for having an idiotic name that doesn't translate well to a Western audience, because yes, I do know why they named it the Wii. But most Americans are too stupid to read between the lines of what they were intending. The Xbox One loses points for having a naming convention that proves itself confusing and arrogant, made by pretentious developers trying to sound cool.
And to further run home the whole Xbox One thing... my personal rig is better than anything that console could ever offer, so no, you AREN'T going to be the "One" console for me. Fuck off Microsoft and fuck off with your stupid Kinect as well.

Bro-gamers are mostly the audience that buys that kind of console. Microsoft's thought process is: does it shoot and have wheels? No? Then we don't want it.
PS4 isn't even a factor in this, because at least they are consistent and has a naming convention that's simple and makes sense. It's not like Microsoft who's trying to be pretentious and acting intelligent when it's the most unsophisticated, and unrefined console I've ever had the displeasure of seeing.
