Ummm, the 360 followed the same trend as the PS3, just with a SLIGHTLY more original name. So 360 fanboys really have no room to talk.
And dude, most of Nintendo's names are RATHER simple WITHOUT being repetitive. Famicom, NES, SNES, Super Famicom, N64, GameCube, Wii...... All of those are easy to remember, and yet, most aren't repetitive((with the exception of their first consoles)).
