(+) Yeah! (+)

Looks great.

Greatly doomed*

Typically I go to bed around 11 every night so I'm well-rested and energized for work the next day.

Last night, I got into bed at 11 as usual, but when I closed my eyes, I just couldn't fall asleep. My mind was racing. The Xbox Series X is not only the most powerful console ever created, but it is also the tallest console on the market.

I tossed and turned in bed. I could not get comfortable. How could I expect to just drift off to sleep knowing that this November, just 9 months from now, gamers will get to experience true raw power, right from their living rooms?

I called up my girlfriend, who goes to bed at 8pm (as women are wont to do). "Hey babe," I said. I could hear her shifting from her sleep. "I can't sleep. I keep thinking of how powerfulMicrosoft's latest console, the Xbox Series X is. Never before has a home console been a 12 teraflop powerhouse before and featured Variable Rate Shading."

"Babe," she said, "it's 11pm. I need my 16 hours of sleep so I can face a full day tomorrow of being indecisive about what I want to eat for every meal. Why are you so concerned with such raw powerso late at night?"

I howled with disgust. "Woman, listen to me," I screamed into the phone. "It is not every day that such a powerful console comes out. There has never been a console with such speed, yet such elegance, and there never will be again, at least until Microsoft makes the next Xbox. If you cannot understand this situation then perhaps we should see other people."

With that, I hung up on my ex-girlfriend and chucked my iPhone across the room. It smashed against the wall and landed into a pile of my other broken iPhones. Now I am exhausted at work and the Xbox Series X is still the most powerful and tallest console on the market.

12 teraflops looks great, exceeds a 2070 super, but would be surprising if they price it under 600 USD.

You figured it out eventually, so who really cares.

---

It has a worse name than the Wii u.

I didnt think that was possible, but here we are

---

There's gonna be another console called the Series C or S or something.

So really the next gen lineup are just referred to as Xbox Series.

That's how the wii u happened

---

Some people didn't even know there was a Wii U console because they'd only ever show the Gamepad.

Meanwhile for better or worse the big chunky monkey Xbox Series X will stick out a fair bit.

---

The Wii U didn't fail because of the name. It failed because Nintendo sucked ass at marketing the thing.

---

No one said it failed, just that it's a dumb as fuck name to a follow up of a dumb name.

You know we're going to get xbox series x s

---

When is the last time a console came out that didn't have a stupid name

---

enough to poop on.

Switch isnt terrible, of a name.

Playstation has always been an awful name imo. It sounds like the midway point to let the kids run around at when you are touring a space museum or something.

It sounds like the madeup console name a show or movie would use to avoid copyright or something.
