The Topic says it all peoples,
If you were given the opportunity to Name a Console for Whoever, Who would the company Be, what would you name it, and why?
IF Sega was to Bring out a Console, i would Name it, Nightstalk, for some reason that name apeals to me, and the console would be black, and just a little thicker than the ol' dc.
What about you guys

Mine would be by Sony. It would cost twice as much as the Sega Nightstalk but it wouldn't offer any real improvements over the Nightstalk. Because it is made by Sony, strangly everyone would buy it and Nightstalk would have to cut its already low price in half...

lol. good one

mine would be made by nintendo and would be called the Virtual Nintendo Entertainment System. this is because the main dashboard would be a full on media center in full 3d glory.

Mine would be by myself and would be called Katana

It would be a dreamcast with a new (or better said, old) name. The change of name and company would benefit the console, I'm sure. Other posibility is Katanawave

Maybe none of them. I'd create a new company with a different name.

Oh, and one important thing, don't forget to make a new logo WITHOUT ANY SWIRL LIKE SHAPE. I don't know why, but all consoles with swirl like shapes die prematurely (is this correctly spelled?). Maybe it's a problem with the flowing of chi... See Dreamcast, Neo Geo Pocket and GP32 for examples.

Id call it the Sega youcantrustme console. That way the millions of people who won't ever buy anymore hardware from sega will buy it.

I think I'd not buy anything with that name.

I would probably pick a random word that would describe the console and then change the last part of the word. For example; Innovex, Revolutina, Intelligen, Conceptuar, or Entertayn.

How about in good old days when Consoles had two names, like Super Nintendo/Super Famicom, Sega Genesis/Sega MegaDrive, and PC Engine/Turbo Graphix 16 at least it kept things interesting!

You could have somthing like The Cougar? or Mustang for the Americans, And somthing a bit mad for the Japanese Like Super Victory Cabinet, They'd Love it, Bring out a a load of crazy games for the jap market like train driving, dating, barbeque games and maybe a spring cleaning game.

For the yanks change the colour and release millions, of NFL, MLB, and other sports games that only they play + some army games with huge oversized weapons and plenty of death.

And for the european release id keep it the same as US version Maybe a less aggressive name like cheetah or something? and change the colour back to the colour of the jap version, Put it in a few clubs so people think its really 'COOL' Bring out a load of games that look really nice and play Really really badly (no one will notice), And get a footie game thats had the same game engine for ten years, slap on an official liesence add some flashy graphics update the roster every year and charge people ?40 for the privalige!

I cant Fail!!!
