        That’s probably why they named the Xbox One the Xbox One all those years ago. Whenever people googled how to mod an Xbox One to play pirated games, they would keep finding original Xbox crap instead since everyone up until that point called it “Xbox 1”.

          In typical Microsoft nonsensical naming schemes, they had nowhere to go after Xbox 360.

            I gave up on paying attention to Xboxes when they started calling them such stupid fucking shit like “Xbox x series sx”. Now you have to be really familiar with Xbox lore to even figure out what the latest current one is.

            They didn’t want to say xbox 2 because it was less than PS3

            But Nintendo had no problems with jumping to 64
