i guess. but "xbox" has become shorthand for "playing videogames" the way nintendo used to be.

I have literally NEVER heard someone use Xbox as short hand for games, and I love in the Xenophobia capital of America (Texas). If there's one place that will choose American stuff at the default, it's Texas, and "Nintendo" is the only video game shorthand that uses a band name.

I have, a lot. Mainly in Cali/Oregon. Also TV shows tend to use it a lot as shorthand for games here. Dunno how it is in Texas (havent lived there in 9yrs o~o) but over on the west coast Ive seen a few people use Xbox for video games.
