why does this topic crop up just when you thought it was beaten to death? once everybody gets their opinions in, you'll all realize it's pronounced "Zed-sness" because the original authors are canuks.

but it's really pronounced the way I say it "Zee-Snezz"

Numerous solutions have been advanced in an attempt to resolve this ceaseless debate. Nevertheless, despite the efforts of some of the foremost linguists, the battle continues to rage.

I pronounce it "nok" like "knock knock who's there? nach." but my brain adds a silent "chh" at the end.

it depends on how you pronounce snes itself, personally I pronounce them both S-N-E-S and Z-S-N-E-S because they are abreviations (or at least snes is) never-the-less a friend of mine always says Z-snes it sounds kind of nonsensicle but to each his own.

I don't pronounce it at all because I never talk about emulation with my friends, you fucking geeks.
