The 360 would be better (IMO) if it didn't have the curves. I think the curves cheapen the design. Harder/straighter lines would have made it look more high-end.

The Dreamcast for its simplicity, and the Jaguar when its CD is on.

The first WonderMega, hands down. The sexiest console design ever.

I agree, they're pretty good with names too. Although Dreamcast sounds a bit weird. It's far better than the supid sounding Wii though, and I love that Sega wasn't lazy like most companies these days and didn't simply call it Saturn 2.

I think if I was picking one of Sega's systems I'd go with the Saturn. Looks good, built well and it just feels solid. I don't like tiny looking systems like the Gamecube, slim PS 2, or Dreamcast. A game system should have some presence on a shelf.

I have to give a big thumbs down to the slimline PS 2. It looks and feels cheap

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

I know I'm going to be in the minority here but I've always loved the look of the Nintendo 64. I thought it had a really cool shape, like it was sculpted out of clay. Also it's not too big and not so small it looks cheap.

Following that, I'd say Wii, then Dreamcast. Then probably some of the redesigns. In no particular order: NES 2, SNES 2, Genesis 2, PSOne.

Dreamcast - small and compact. Probably the most portable and easy to setup of all my systems.
