We're all gamers, and when we're choosing a new console we, first and foremost, look at what's under the hood. Yeah, it's the raw specs that really excite us. But sometimes, there's just some hardware that looks visually stunning.

Post pictures of your favorite aesthetically pleasing hardware. It doesn't have to be a console, it can be an accessory, something handheld, or whatever. But let's try and keep it in the realm of gaming.

My personal favorite:

Has anything ever looked this good?

A close second:

Ohhh, yeah.

Does that thing that was in the OT thread a while back count as a console? The porn gadget that did stuff while you watched the movies lol. It required sofware and was a platform that only worked with that software. Sounds like gaming hardware porn.

Vertical PS3s make me question my sexuality.

Always had an e-boner for the original PAL Mega Drive~

 

[Gomu Gomu]

Oh yeah baby

 

[Ploid 3.0]

That internal PC pic looks nsfw.

 

[Cobra84]

A home karaoke machine, a peeling, sunburnt rectangle, and a speedbump have no business being in a thread about good looking hardware.

Gold N64

The N64 is the best looking console regardless of color, not that it has any good competition.

it does look nice....but do people really have it standing in their homes? I know everyone I know (including myself) that has one does not

 

[dollartaco]

My ps3 is vertical...

 

[GodfatherX]

I switched from horizontal to vertical about a month ago

 

[Flunkie]

 

[Sleeker]

My PS3 doesnt have the chrome.
Its got that horrible non reflective silver that totally kills my attraction to it.

The thing is a fucking tank, it was either stand my PS3 or my 360 up and I'd probably need a stand to be comfortable with my 360 up.

yeah, plus the cords coming outta the side just look awkward....

 

[APZonerunner]

Curves like a fucking Ferrari. Beautiful.

I'd say it looks the best when vertical.

 

[Saint Gregory]

thermaltake/bmwdesignworks concept case

I'm considering that for my next build but I just hope that the suggested retail is nowhere near what the actual cost is :/

damn that does look nice

Spoiler

runs to switch up setup again

I rai.... dammit there is no way you can top that :lol

 

[jts]

No PSX yet?

 

[Saint Gregory]

This is what I'm working on now BTW. not totally done but I wish I hadn't gone cheap with the single PCIe slot now

 

[Kadey]

Except red and maybe pink in the far future, none of these other colors will ever come out.

 

[Darkpen]

The DS lite was the sexiest little beast when it came out

Not the best photo, but you know it was sexy when it came out.

 

[jts]

^ here's a photo of a real red PS3.

It's a paint job of sorts though, I think.

 

[lupinko]

They've already done a Red PS3, but it was only a limited promotional contest that SCEA ran for Canada Day in Canada.

And yes, it was Ferrari red.

 

[Kadey]

Sony made only 3 actual red PS3s to give out in a contest. Yeah, the rest are custom paint jobs and with a thick layer like that in the picture, it's definitely one.

I just said it a minute later.

 

[GhostSeed]

It's a white VCR.....why would anyone post it in sexiest hardware?

Always loved the Net Yaroze:

Consoles in colours we don't usually see them make me hot.

WHY, IWATA??? ((

[BeEatNU]

Always loved the Net Yaroze:

Awwwwwwwwww yeah, now this is a man with taste!
It's a shame, I work in the industry and NEVER seen one of these

 

[Haunted]

Classic sexy.

 

[Acid08]

I would do anything to own this. ANYTHING.

 

[Drkirby]

Awwwwwwwwww yeah, now this is a man with taste!

Yet I have heard storys and seen pictures of people who have found them in Pawn Shops :lol

 

[Schrade]

(Amiga Rules pic)
Classic sexy.

That particular monitor is ugly as sin though. The original 1084 was more sexory.

And the Amiga 1000 with 1080 monitor was soooo damn beautiful:
