As far as "The worst console name in history" goes, what about the TurboGrafix or the Cinclair Spectrum.
It's not really a bad name IMO, just a bit strange. I mean...If you don't like to pronounce it as We, why not call it the Why?
That could actually make a good add campaign...
For example:
Voice 1: Nintendo. Why?
**videos of games**
Voice 2: Why not?
EDIT: as far as the games go, does anyone want to start a discussion about them?
EDIT the second:
