What do you think is the best looking console? (self.retrogaming)

I was thinking about this lately, but I always loved the look of the PS2. I I think the black and blue color scheme works really well. And I like the two levels like the top and the bottom part of it.

Second to this, I think the Dreamcast looks really great. The angles on it make the console look so compact. The orange light on the console is placed really well too.

What do you like?

The 3DO FZ-10 looks much cooler than one would think the console deserves based on its reputation

Definitely a looker. Picked one up a year ago and have not been disappointed, bearing in mind the limited game library.

Similarly the 1st version PC-Engine Duo is top class. Just a great sleek look

Rented this a few times from Blockbuster and played it at the demo that was always set up at Costco, it was a really solid system with actual potential. Blockbuster had a program back in the day where for $40 or something like that you could rent a system with 2 controllers and 2 games for 7 days. Did the same with the Sega Saturn with similar feelings, eventually ended up owning a N64 and that was not a disappointment in the end.

The ballistic hard shell cases with foam inserts Blockbuster rented out consoles in were seriously cool I wonder if any exist still
