I hated how Japan and Europeans got this beauty while we got the kiddy block crap
Xavier Campbell
closest we got was the model 2 later but agreed, wish we got it over the original.
Dylan Walker
I keep forgetting that was a thing
But yeah, it should have been like that since the beginning
Jaxson Rodriguez
God that aesthetic looked so good. I miss it so much.

Looks like the Gundam F91 in console form.
Lincoln Ortiz
Gabriel Rivera
i've never seen this before in my life wtf
the purple, gray, and black color combo is cooler
Dylan Turner
Looks like a modified dreamcast.
James Ross
This weird thing and the PS2 (maybe in silver) nailed the 2000s / Y2K aesthetic really well. Mirrors, silver, chrome, and gooey liquid.
Daniel Allen
Y2K design fucking rules and I wish we still had it instead of the MUH MINIMALISM shit we've got now.
Kayden Myers
None of these
Ryan Smith
Adrian Murphy
I wonder what one of these would cost nowadays. Probably absurd, especially outside Japan.
Luke White
Mason King
Hunter Campbell
Certainly not that.
Blake Thomas
This is hideous fucking monstrosity. Why did you post this?
The black Atari 2600 is fine, but the wood paneling on this looks like shit and really dates the console
Panasonic Q is hideous as fuck and looks like a glass plastic abomination
N64 looks like shit to begin with
This is okay but what's with the random two tone gray and then random rainbow colors out of nowhere?
This is slowly becoming aesthetic, compared to the others, but the red and yellow and random pastels...
This is aesthetic. Clean. Compact.

Famicom > NES
Aiden Sanders
Say what you want about how the console turned out, but I always thought it looked nice. Gamepad wasn't super aesthetic, but the actual console was pretty sleek.
Luke Bell
And you aren't even able to contribute to an aesthetic console thread.
Stay
Irrelevant
John Young
That shit looks like something you'd expect to see on a space station in a movie. Fucking awesome.
Luke Gonzalez
This has hints of good design, but ultimately falls on the "too big and clunky" end.
This Wondermega is a lot more aesthetically pleasing.
Jace Bennett
Have sex, your opinions are contrarian and trash so I know you're coping with your inadequacy by trying to be different
Nathan Johnson
>glossy black plastic
It only looks nice in official pictures or right after you've wiped down all the finger grease and smudges
Levi Morris
The Wii U gamepad and system both look pretty decent. The gamepad looks like it could be a game system on it's own.
Chase Phillips
Great description.
Alexander Ramirez
Connor Cooper
What are you doing with your consoles, user? Molesting them?
Kayden Kelly
This and the Dreamcast look great.
Adrian Brooks
I'd say game boy micro or neo geo pocket color. Never had any of them two but I find them aesthetically pleasing for some reason.
Kevin Thompson
>not engaging in relationships with your video game consoles
shiggy.
Alexander Brooks
not to mention scratches like a bitch and is impossible to restore. In 5 years all Wii U's will look repulsive.
Camden Mitchell
I bought one for 50 bucks about 2 years ago.
Gabriel Lopez
Hey dumbasses, you can't /thread something in your own post that's not how this works. Lurk moar and shut the fuck up more often.
Isaiah Collins
You have to handle the Wii U tablet. The white Wii U looks better and cleaner but NA hates white consoles for some reason.
Jayden Ortiz
The integrated unit certainly improved on that, but I still wouldn't call it pretty.
Leo Thompson
this
Oliver Roberts
I understand the tablet, but you should be cleaning all of your controllers and at least dusting the console regularly anyway. Doesn't mean the base console doesn't look slick.
Andrew Kelly
Love the Saturn, some great games there user.
Adam Long
Can 80s utilitarian design ever be surpassed?

the PSX. as in, the REAL psx, not the ps1 which suddenly everyone calls the psx even though an actual psx exists.

This is how you identify children and insecure manchildren.
The American SNES was far superior, it just had a strange color choice. The brutalist aesthetic of the SNES was fantastic.
The european one looks like a misshapen door wedge.
Angel Lee
looks like some shitty 70's hospital equipment
Brayden Gomez

Nathan Sullivan
Only a console this beautiful can produce an image this beautiful.
Anthony Nguyen
>controller not designed for handlets
This image should have used the analog controller.
Jaxson Sullivan
This looks hideous. The American TurboGrafx is not great but it looks leagues better than this garbage.
Bentley Nguyen
A remarkably comfortable pad that is still being copied to this day.
Gabriel Robinson
There's a lot of things wrong with this console.
Matthew Gray
Nolan Walker
Using aesthetic as a noun and not a pronoun = you are garbage and your opinion is void.

Alexander Johnson
top zoom
You couldn't play Genesis Virtua Racing with the 32X
Isaiah Perez
being able to turn the logo to whichever way you had the console standing is pure aesthetic
Parker White
I always thought that was badass when I was a kid. I was a poorfag then so no way i could buy all that shit but damn was it impressive to see at a friends house.

I've always been curious in human behavior. What I've noticed is:
>Whites/Asians tend to gravitate toward PC
>Minorities and trashier whites tend to gravitate toward PlayStation
>Kids under 18 tend to gravitate toward Xbox
>Pedophiles seem to be enthralled with Nintendo.
Why is this?
Caleb Murphy
What is hideous about it? At least it's compact unlike the turbografx.
Michael Bell
Asians are mostly console gods. PC is huge in mexico.
Easton Cruz
The OG GBA in glacier, the Dreamcast, the DSlite, and the PSOne.
Gamecube and PS2 also look great.
never seen this model of the saturn before, sexy as fuck
Brayden Sullivan
Gabriel Thompson
The Famicom on it's own looks good. But the ram adapter and disk system ruin it.
That's why the Sharp Twin Famicom is the best looking Famicom.
Jace Barnes
IMO, the PlayStation One is the best looking system. I just love the sleek redesign.
Ian Phillips
We need to go more utilitarian.
Jaxon Williams
Carter Johnson
Carter Parker
It looks like a mangled, misshapen box with indentations all over it with words.
Lucas Foster
>pedophiles and nintendo
probably because its a childish icon and a lot of the games are from their childhood, idunno
>kids and xbox
xbox has been the most popular console in the west for multiplayer and multiplayer shooters, kids just want to play with their friends, so xbox is an obvious choice
>minorities, white trash, and playstation
to me it always seemed they grabbed playstation because ps online used to(or it still is?) be free. Or, since most didnt have internet, because a lot of the games were single player heavy.
>whites and asians towards pc
less whites generally and more white hobbyists. white nerds and asian nerds know what they like and they like options, PC is the way to go

Looks better than the plain, cheap, black box of the turbografx. The logo looks nicer too. Nothing looks mangled about it and most consoles have words somewhere.
Nolan Hill
Colton Ross
If it wa sblack it would look a lot better, but it still just seems like it's too small for its own good.
Noah Allen
perfect
Justin Rodriguez
Why does it have to be big and black, user?
Colton Martin
>Whites/Asians tend to gravitate toward PC
Poorfag slavs/SEAmonkeys rocking toasters meet richfags building top-tier battlestations
>Minorities and trashier whites tend to gravitate toward PlayStation
Dead simple operation and traditionally had the most varied lineup
>Kids under 18 tend to gravitate toward Xbox
Reputation for edgy military shooters make the tykes feel super cool and mature
>Pedophiles seem to be enthralled with Nintendo.
Serious mental issues.
Daniel Wright
bought one during my trip to japan, love it
Blake Russell
then why are games still being made for it?

Is that what I think it is? A TV with built-in SNES?
Joseph Perry
The 2600 is still winning this thread, in case you guys couldnt tell. Maybe next to the gameboy/pocket.
Zachary Diaz
PS2 Slim.
Charles Brooks
Older ones look better. It isn't just nostalgia
Charles Jenkins
yeah, I'm thinking Atari is back.
Oliver Bell
Not happening now or ever. That thing was literally a scam.
Henry Clark
Gamecube is up there.
Hunter Bennett
unironically the fortnite xbox one s. I would never buy an xbox one though
Liam Barnes
>The black Atari 2600 is fine, but the wood paneling on this looks like shit and really dates the console
It dates it but that's part of the charm. 80s is chic right now after all
Mason King
It'd be interesting to see a DS or 3DS design that took more from the OG GBA, while still having the clamshell second screen.
Matthew Cruz
I love this console.
Jonathan Howard
These are great.
Matthew Hughes
Personally, I really like the PlayStation TV. Makes me really wish Nintendo had done something similar for DS/3DS.
The Vita itself is also a very aesthetically pleasing piece of hardware.
I also like the New 3DS model and the DSi model.
Jordan Wright
This has to be sarcastic. It was a purple box with a handle!
Mason Johnson
I bought a boxed one for $33 4 months ago.
Jaxson Campbell
I have the NES equivalent of this. A friend of mine asked if I could store some of his dad's shit in my attic because his dad's place got flooded. His dad fucking died and I inherited most of the shit he had brought over. He came and picked up a few things and didn't care for the other stuff so said I could keep it
Ian Miller
something something final form
William Thompson
If everything in that picture was actually functional and had a purpose that was commonly used, it would be my favorite in the thread. It doesn't waste space while not being overwhelming. It has kind of a cockpit look to it. For simple designs, Sega Saturn and Dreamcast are awesome. Why was Sega so good at designing consoles?
Joshua Ross
It was an aesthetic cube. The default purple could have been a better shade, though.
My black one looks great.
Gabriel Sullivan

Lucas Green
These for me. Always liked them both. Especially all the colors you can get for them. Slim PS2 is up there with these as well. Consoles should be tiny little things you can carry easy.
Ryan Thomas
>Why was Sega so good at designing consoles?
They've had lots of hardware experience with their arcade games.
Robert Sanders
Why tho?
Daniel Bailey
sex
Christopher Turner
People of a different age group would think the curved SNES looked like a kid's toy, and the blocky SNES looked like it belonged next to your TV, VCR, and the rest of your entertainment system. Same with the PlayStation redesign .
Jason Williams
Was having only one controller port NEC's gimmick? All their hardware has this shit.
Ryder Kelly
have it
Jordan Johnson
Zachary Thomas
You right
William Cooper
Oliver White
Is nobody mentioning the neo geo AES so far some kind of fucking inside joke I don't get? what's wrong with you people.
Everything about this look has aged amazingly well, it looks like a sleek piece of Hi-Fi equipment, it looks upmarket and luxurious, restrained. Even the script on the logos is perfect.
Matthew King
and that's without mentioning this work of art.
Jordan Jones
Nobody fucking owned one back in the day richfag. That's why.
