I tell you want i really hate. Is when people call it the NESS or the SNESS. I never heard anyone call it that as a kid. It was the N-E-S or the Nintendo.

Are there others?
I never even heard anyone call it "N-E-S" when I was a kid. It was always just "Nintendo" ("Ni'tendo" is what my cousin Mike and a lot of other kids actually said) and its successor was always called "Super Nintendo."
The one that bugs me the most is when people call the playable character in Punch-Out and Super Punch-Out "Little Mac." Even if you don't know the history of the Punch-Out series of games, the playable character in the arcade entries very obviously isn't "little." He's in the same size range as the opponent characters. In Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, they drew the playable character as a 2' 6" tall, 25-pound midget, so the name "Little Mac" makes sense.
NES was used in advertise.
But after the NES came out, you might also hear it called regular Nintendo.
Fuck yeah. First it was ' let's play Atari', then it was 'Let's play Nintendo'. Never heard any kids calling them the '2600' or the 'VCS' or the 'Nintendo Entertainment System' or the 'NES'.I know it was, and so was "Nintendo Entertainment System," like in this commercial:
I never heard anyone in real life call it a "Nintendo Entertainment System" when I was a kid either.
I never heard it called anything other than "Nintendo" in real life when I was a kid.
Fuck yeah. First it was ' let's play Atari', then it was 'Let's play Nintendo'. Never heard any kids calling them the '2600' or the 'VCS' or the 'Nintendo Entertainment System' or the 'NES'.
But NES was common enough.
She shed?I absolutely despise "Man Cave"
I used to hate that term with a passion as well. Then my mom bought my boys a 'Man Cave' neon sign and my 16-year-old still loves it. In fact, I just repaired it for him yesterday. Power wires got pulled out of the 12 V plug and I had to cut back some of the insulation and re-solder and heat shrink everything. If he loves it, how can I hate it, know what I mean?I absolutely despise "Man Cave"
Honestly who are we to say how whoever came up with these names pronounced them. Maybe we are wrong. Does it really matter. Life is too short to quabble. I have some arcades for sale if you are interested. (-:I usually just let it fly. You know who I'm talking about.

Of course you want a 'Man Cave' sign when you are a boy. I bet you that sign will be talked about long after you are gone. "Yeah, grandma bought me that sign and dad repaired it for me. It ain't never gonna be for sale..." I can hear it now...I used to hate that term with a passion as well. Then my mom bought my boys a 'Man Cave' neon sign and my 16-year-old still loves it.
