It's funny you say that. Because this is the youtube video that prompted this thread.

If you call it "Ness" you obviously were too young to ever own one, or you need to be punched.

I use both interchangeably. I use N E S, most of the time.

However when I'm around people who say NESS I use it too.

I'll start calling the N E S, Ness when people start calling H I V, Hivv.

What about R.O.B. ( Robotic Operating Buddy, the NES accessory)


Is it Rob or R O B? I think thats the real question because it has punctuation so it should be R O B but is always pronounced Rob. Then why can't NES be pronounced as ness, because it surely isn't N.E.S.

^ That is exactly my point if it has dots, you have to say the letters. No dots and it can be said either way.

ROB (Robb) is cool because it's a pun which personifies and anthropomorphizes the object. Calling the N E S, Ness, does neither.

I spell it out, but if I caught myself saying some toolbag shit like N E Esticle, I'd expect to be punched.

hah that's funny I use it differently depending on the situation, i.e.

"It's being shipped by U.P.S."

but I'd also say

"Oh look the Ups Truck is here"
