I'm an American, so either Ess-En-Eee-Ess, or Super En-Eee-Ess.

As far as I can tell from the Interwebs, it's only dirty furriners (mainly the British) who seem to pronounce it Ness and Sness.

This right here. "Sness" just sounds ridiculous to me.

This.

That was literally the only way I ever heard it pronounced growing up in the 90s. I think the whole "sness" thing is a modern retcon created by a the newer generations. I never once heard "sness" in the 90s.

When we were kids we just said "Super Nintendo". Now I usually say that or Ess-En-Eee-Ess.

This is how I say it, especially the first case. When I was a kid, though, I usually called it the Super Nintendo.

This, although nobody really pronounced the abbreviation since it's less cumbersome to just say "Super Nintendo"

"Sneeze"

Not really, but it's a perfectly viable pronunciation.

If I'm actually speaking, Super Nintendo. If I'm typing, I just put SNES (and say it in my head as S-N-E-S).
