I personally have always thought the Master System looked pretty swag

 

[MCN]

You forgot the Master System 2!

 

[RAWRferal]

Game gear for me, especially when dat screen is on.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Poor Sega CD. Saturn model 2 or Sega CD 2 for me. Sleek and functional.

 

[eXistor]

Sega Mark III looks pretty bad-ass. Not my picture btw:

Outside of that, Megadrive 1 for sure.

Or the white Saturn, though the system itself is a bit bulky for my tastes.

 

[Aquova]

I'm going to go against the suggestions, and instead say that the unreleased Sega Neptune is one of the best looking consoles out there.

As for released consoles, their handhelds are usually... bad, while the home consoles are excellent. I've always loved the Model 1 Genesis and SG-1000

 

[Krooner]

I always liked the white Japanese Game Gear.

The white Japanese Saturn too.

 

[Platy]

Mega Drive 4

 

[Nanashrew]

Sega Mark III, the white Saturn and Dreamcast for sure.

Best console design: genesis
Best logo: Dreamcast

 

[Celine]

Grey Japanese Saturn!

 

[JordanKZ]

European Dreamcast, gotta have that blue logo.

 

[deadstar72]

Personally the Sega Master System II has always been my favourite:

 

[OldMan]

 

[Zantetsuken]

I always wanted that Japanese Saturn. I still have the black one, but I thought it looked great.

 

[MCN]

Sega Mark III, the white Saturn and Dreamcast for sure.

I'm sensing a theme...

 

[liquidtmd]

Mega Drive 4

 

[Nanashrew]

I'm sensing a theme...

They're sexy looking machines.

Another vote for the Mark III. It looks so futuristic.

Also love the original Japanese Mega Drive + Mega CD combo:

 

[Breakage]

Dreamcast (only Sega console I've owned). I liked the name, logo and the simple design of the console. With no physical reset button, it was more minimalistic than the Saturn and PS1. I didn't like the Dreamcast's pad tho.

 

[Baleoce]

Never owned one, but the Japanese Saturn (either colour) is a thing of absolute beauty.

 

[Peltz]

The one with Hi-Definition Graphics

 

[lazygecko]

The original Japanese Mega Drive mk1 with the gold, magenta and blue

[Ravage_Hydra]

Only sega system i ever owned was a Dreamcast. But my favorite would have to be the Genesis always had a soft spot for that system.

 

[User123456]

The model 1 MegaDrive and the SEGA SATAN, SHIRO! Are both sexy beasts...

But the Dreamcast, oh man. My head spins and my heart races every time I see it. It was love at first sight then, and it's still strong today.

 

[NEO0MJ]

You forgot the Sega CDX

 

[The Fat Bulgarian Kid]

The Mega Drive 2

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Dreamcast or white Saturn.

 

[cireza]

Sega consoles have pretty great designs overall, it is difficult to pick one.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

 

[Devilgunman]

I think Sega had problem with their console design and they all don't look that good to me. If you want me to pick one, maybe the Japanese Saturn. Maybe.

 

[Zaki2407]

Grey Saturn for me. The day my dad bought this for me is the day that I will never forget. Thanks dad!!

 

[Gaspard]

While I think the Genesis looks the coolest I personally like the Dreamcast's design better.

 

[Bastos]

European Dreamcast, gotta have that blue logo.

Red logo >>> Blue logo

 

[bman94]

Dreamcast > Genesis 2 > Genesis 1

 

[plentyofmilhouse]

Megadrive 2 for me, but with the red power and reset buttons. Such a nice looking, compact little system.

 

[Octavianus]

European Dreamcast, gotta have that blue logo.

Yeah this one.

 

[RecRoulette]

There's an anime about this subject...

For real though, I love the look of the original Genesis.

 

[Hoo-doo]

I owned:
- Sega Master System II
- Sega Game Gear
- Sega Dreamcast

Out of those three I definitely loved the Dreamcast the most in terms of looks.
Small, square and unobtrusive. The controller was weird as fuck though with the VMU and the cable coming out of the bottom.

 

[Stairouais]

 

[TheGreyHulk]

Ive always been a fan of the looks of the original genesis.

 

[deriks]

You can deny that this boot is amazing

 

[Bgamer90]

I felt all of the handhelds were pretty ugly.

I would say the Dreamcast was the best looking Sega console with Sega Genesis model two being close behind.

 

[v0yce]

1. Saturn (white)
2. Game Gear (white)
3. Master System
4. CDX
5. Genesis

 

[Owari]

Dreamcast > Genesis 2 > Genesis 1

Winner!

 

[liquidtmd]

It is nice but I always preferred the Saturn

All pale to the GameCubes quirky little one but that's beside the point

 

[borges]

Dreamcast FTW, followed by Grey Saturn. Ive owned first one, and got borrowed for a while latter (on my childhood).
Dreamcast is incredibly modern looking, even for nowadays standards.
