Usual Nintendo changing names every gen the console/hh had a bad or downtime.

NES = sucess -> SNES
SNES = not much sucess - N64 (don't carry NES part)
N64 = failure -> Gamecube (throw the past away)
GC = ubber failure -> Wii
Wii = ubber sucess -> WiiU (finally keeping the name like NES-SNES)
WiiU = biggest failure -> NX (or whatever they decide to call it officialy on launch)

Gamecube kept the name for a very long time until it declined a lot, them changed to DS and with 3DS failure will change again...

All very predicable

how is 3DS failure? it sold over 50 millions, thats alot in my book, very profitable

When you drop to less than 40% of your previous version it isn't very sucessfull...
