What Console Hardware Do You Think LOOKS the Best?

[racketboy]

Ok -- we're only talking about how the main console hardware looks.

My vote goes for the Saturn. (Particularly, the Model 2/Round Buttoned US Model in black)

I think it is a classic design that is elegant and cool at the same time.
The Neo-Geo is a close second.

The model 2 Genesis is an honorable mention due to the size and simplicity of the design.
(You could possibly say the same thing about the Wii)

I like the look of the Wii the best... as long as all the white doors are staying on and closed. If you open them or take them off, I think the white and black looks hideous together. But the Wii itself is so small for being a major player in an era of highly complex and advanced systems. it's not much bigger than a DVD-drive.
Typically, I don't like white on consoles, but I think since my Wii is new and still looks great (no fading or scratches) it looks the best.

I think the Saturn and the Turbo Duo are in a close tie.

The Saturn is definately a classy sytem. Black, sleek and clean lines. It's a little bulky though.

The Duo looks so clean and next gen for the time, even though it was just a PC for games!!! It's the only system I really want and don't own. Gotta get one.

The Jaguar and Neo Geo are definately runner-ups.

Hey Racket, you should repost this with a poll! although there may be too many to list....

#1 system in terms of looking good is the Atari Jaguar WITH the CD add on. without the CD add on it looks like a piece of junk, but it completely looks bad ass with the CD attachment. wow, i miss my jag now

I think that the #2 bad ass looking system is the Skeleton Saturn from Japan.

#3 system would be the Sega CDX with the 32x attachment (im serious, its my opinion) which i just sold out of my private collection and regret it (at least it funded my 360).

If i had to pick some of the worst looking systems, #1. Playstation 1, #2. Goldstar 3DO #3. Playstation 1 Mini. Sony just sucks (although i love alot of PS1 games)

Maybe I'll take the top nominations here and do a poll on the blog -- we'll get a better turn-out there.

my vote would be for the jaguar. i dont have the cd addon but (without the controller plugged in) it looks very sleek and stylish next to other consoles

For sure, and possibly the "Ugliest" as well....or does ps1 already hold the title

I vote NeoGeoAES. Very attractive console.

The Dreamcast (especially in black, with maybe silver highlights) is very beautiful. As is the Xbox 360 in black or white.

Genesis m2, Saturn m2, Dreamcast. Sega knows how to make an awesome looking machine.
