Sexiest game console
« on: January 09, 2012, 03:01:42 PM »
Ok, my wife and were talking about what we thought was the coolest looking game console ever.  So, in this thread, give me your opinion of the top 5 coolest looking consoles ever. My top 5 are:

1. Duo-r: what can i say, it just speaks to me.
2. Fm Towns Marty:  I like simple designs, the marty is just sexy.
3. NES:  Once again, i like the simple design, its iconic.
4. Neo Geo: Sharp lines, black on gold, and very sturdy.
5. Turbografx 16: coal black, sharp lines, sturdy and simple, love it.

For the record my wifes favorite is the gamecube.

I'm a sucker for the PCE as well - both Tats and Henry capture the essence of what I'd post, so I won't bother repeating them.

I agree that SEGA had some sexy looking systems as well (I love the look of the original Genesis, especially with the CD attachment).

As much as I love playing games on Nintendo's systems, I've never felt any of them have been particularly sexy.  The SNES was so unattractive to me that I went and airbrushed mine really ugly colors so I'd never sell it.  It's not pretty, but it's still an awesome system.

2: WonderMega (silver)

Speaking of slabs, whats with the AES love? The thing us just...a great big hollow sounding black brick. I dig the controller, but the system...boring. Not awful, just boring.

And yeah, I should have put PC-FX in the runner up category. Its totally beautiful.

In absolutely no particular order (except the order they pop into me head):

-PC Engine (original white version)
-Genesis/Mega Drive (model 1 NOT the EU version, JP and US versions only)
-Sega Genesis model 1 with Sega CD model 1 attached (model 1 Mega CD is even cooler because of more blinky lights)
-PC Engine Duo-R
-Sega Master System (US version only with matching carts instead of the odd-sized ugly Mark 3 carts).
-Sega Saturn (model 1 with a RAM cart attached, looks uglier when RAM cart is removed).
-Super Famicom
-Neo Geo AES.  Simple but sleek.

No real opinion:
-Tower-based stuff like the PCFX.
-Playstation 1


Ugly as sin:
-Nintendo 64
-Super NES (US)
-Playstation 2
-Wii
-Xbox
-Famicom
-PC Engine Shuttle

I'm sure I forgot some stuff, but oh well.
