PS3 in all its models

The thing about the original PS3 is that they always show it from angles that omit the rectangular box-base on the bottom or stand it vertically and shoot it from a slimming angle.

I love my 60GB Ps3, but it's an awkward rounded monolith of a machine.

 

[MaulerX]

Original 360 S with chrome accents.

 

[deltatheta]

I still like the 3DS even though its design has caused so much confusion.

Yeah, the 3DS and DS Lite are more examples where every element of the machine has a function with no wasted space. The one thing I don't like about the 3DS is the frame around the bottom screen (which incidentally scratches the top screen when closed).

PS3 in all its models

The superslim is one of the ugliest consoles ever. Looks like an oversized glasses case. I like the OG and slim designs though.

I am partial to the Dreamcast, though the Wii looks very nice, too. Can't really decide which one takes the cake. There's really only few consoles whose look I don't like (one of them being the PS3 superslim).

 

[CaptainSlow]

I love the new 360 design. I really want to trade in my 360S for the E.

Also, that new super slim PS3 is so terrible. I wish I bought mine before they did the revision. The sliding cover that's ribbed for her pleasure is just hideous.

I do think this console generation has been the best looking one overall.

I think it's sexy

Edit: but the first slim is sexier

 

[jobrro]

My number one console would be the Dreamcast, so much power for the time in such a small package, no power brick either. Also a fan of the first PS3 slim. Handheld wise the DS Lite, simple design and I didn't have to worry about screens/bezels scratching one another when it was pocketed.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Probably the Xbox One or PS4

Honourable mention goes to the first Slim PS3

Turbo Duo R:

this is what I was going to post

 

[IrishNinja]

thought this was known (just needs HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS logo)

 

[AdanVC]

The Game Cube. Such a unique design.

Also vertical black Wii. Looks very elegant and simple yet, very attractive. Glad the Wii U console design is similar. PS4 looks very nice as well.

I remember being in Kindergarten playing Sonic, Ristar, Flicky, DeCap-Attack etc.. on my friend's Genesis whenever I slept over. That headphone jack and hardware volume control were such a beautiful addition for late night secret gaming.

 

[sublimit]

Glossy white phat PS3 looked very sexy.

 

[wanders]

DS Lite easily. Portable, thin, slick.

 

[meanspartan]

Vertical Wii with that lit up blue disc tray strip, especially the black version. So sexy.

The regular White Wii looks like the cheap standard def gamecube+ machine that it was. Slap on black paintjob and it's from the future lol.

 

[Tesseract]

silver gamecube just really does it for me.

 

[XanaviF30]

Lol. Love this picture.

With that, my vote is the white PS4. Dreamcast a close 2nd.

 

[The Shadow]

Sony PS3 Slim - Not really fond of the fat or the super slim.

Sega Genesis Mark 1 - Despite the age, it still looks good to me.

 

[meanspartan]

 

[MormaPope]

I love quirky and odd Nintendo consoles. The N64 looks like a tank, and the controller ports are easily seen. The Gamecube is so damn small, its essentially a tiny cube tank.

 

[White Man]

Any version of the PS2.

 

[Wolfgang Jr]

Realistically the winner is the Wii followed by PS3Phat.

 

[meanspartan]

Any version of the PS2.

Maybe it's because it was the first time I was conscious of the "next gen", but that OG Ps2 will always look like it is from the year 3000 to me.

 

[Foshy]

PS4 for me. I never liked Sony console designs before it, but it looks so classy.

On a similar note, the Vita when it comes to handhelds. The PSP looked a bit off, but the Vita perfected its design.

The Wii was pretty sleek too, and I kinda like the original 360.

 

[CrovaxPSO]

From the Beautiful pictures of gaming hardware thread.

 

[Macka]

First reply spot on as per usual.

Also, white consoles look amazing in promo shots, but black looks a lot better in RL imo. Doesn't clash with your lounge room either.

 

[Cloudy]

Dreamcast was the first thing that popped to mind for me as well. Dem curves.

However, doesn't the ugly controller count against it?

My vote = Vita slim

 

[SuperSah]

Black DSi with its sexy matte finish and angled edges. It is also nice and thin too.

 

[PumpkinPie]

I forgot about this one. I love the styling of it, like a bar of soap.

 

[Bishop89]

this and also this

 

[HORRORSHØW]

i really like the dreamcast too, OP. the wii and the 360 look great, too.

 

[jonabbey]

Eh? Eh?

 

[Cizeta-Moroder]

Wii, DSi XL and 2DS

 

[GCX]

Minimalist perfection.

 

[Dragon Puncher]

I was always partial to the japanese Saturn. Aesthetically it might have been beaten by some of the 7th generation consoles, but it is the pinacle of the "old" console look (basically a square where you put the game in the middle).

 

[Twilight Gap]

Minimalist perfection.

Scrolled way too long for this.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Game Boy Micro
Vita

 

[jfoul]

 

[Kamina]

 

[Blastoise]

PS2 Slim.

 

[Fleshfeast]

I love the new 360 design. I really want to trade in my 360S for the E.

Just seeing this pic makes me want to trade my 360 and get one of these. It would probably cost too much to switch though. (I have the od 120GB one, I think)

 

[Cloudy]

I forgot about this one. I love the styling of it, like a bar of soap.

Oooh, totally forgot about psone. Lovely design

 

[EvilKatarn]

Vita 1000
PSP Go
DS Lite
GBA Micro

I don't think I actually like any of the home console designs.

 

[ReignofSparrows]

I had this guy, and I just loved the look.

 

[adamsapple]

PS2 Slim is still the most sleekest sexiest piece of hardware ever. Its so slim it can practically fit in everywhere, and the heat problem is non existent. I've used mine in really small spaces for almost 8 years and its still going strong.

 

[Trigonometrize.]

The word "sexy" is being used way too many times in a thread about boxes.

 

[Shun]

No one else loves the original Famicom :[

 

[JJDinomite]

OG PS2

 

[pillowtalk]

I've always been quite fond of the way the Sega Mark III and Master System look.

I love how this looks. Reminds me of a computer console in some mech show.
