I mean, I still don't see why the XBox 360 isn't the most powerful of the series.

I jest, but then, I also don't.

The WiiU attracted a lot of justified derision on its naming scheme, but I wonder if it also got a lot because it was still legible enough to be seen by people as mistake. Speaking for myself, even as a bit of a gamer (not a major one, but I'm in touch with the scene in general), the XBox line is just a cognitive blur to me. I couldn't even name them correctly any more. If they come out with an XBox XS I would literally need to read an article pointing out that it's a new release. The line is so illegible as naming schemes I can't even make fun of them properly.
