Sounds like they're trying to protect their trademark. If we started referring to every interconnecting block as a Lego they could no longer license the name or hold exclusive control over it. It happened to Kleenex and aspirin. I'm sure Nintendo hates the fact that your parents call every console a Nintendo even more than you do.

So if the Nintendo Xbox is not a thing then wtf did I order from Temu? Damn I should have ordered the Samsung Xbox instead. I knew it.
