Yeah, it’s structured like someone trying to copy a college essay but changing the text a little bit.

Counterpoint: It’s been called N.E.S. in English since forever, Ars Technica had an article that pretty much cements that. One game vs. a shitload of precedent, the precedent wins. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/08/n-e-s-vs-ness-nintendo-complicates-the-pronunciation-debate/
