I suppose it depends where you live, but growing up in the United States in the early 90s, it was pretty normal to hear consoles referred to as "Nintendo" and handhelds referred to as "Game Boy." Nintendo has just been around for long enough that it just seemed normal to give them the Band-Aid/iPod/Kleenex treatment.

I imagine it's different in Europe, Japan, and RoW though...and among people who grew up with the PS2.
