I will forever love the boxy spartan look of the NES.

Probably Famicom but NGC/PS3/X360 also have a nice design.

I'll be the first to support SNES! I love the console and the colour even though it's barney's! And the controller compliment it well.
Wish that they'd continue making SNES carts and great cover art boxes. :'(

The European SNES/SFC design is better IMO. Never liked the whole purple/grey motif myself.

I'll go with either the Famicom or the GameCube for my favourite design.

They all look nice, lets leave it that. :)

I miss the past wooden atari, A cell phone release a phone that looked like that, but the magazines called it ugly >:(

That is it. Game systems went from being futuristic devices to media centers, back and forth. That pretty much sums up all game systems.

About ugly, the only thing ugly about a game system is when nobody produce nothing of value for it

I really like the original gameboy.  There was a Pocket one modelled like it too - plus the Famicom GBA SP is amazing in my opinion.
I'm not sure why, but I had to own all three - I'm going through some weird gameboy fanaticism lately.

The original NES. I also like its controllers.

Edit: And the NES and Famicom are my favorite consoles.

Agreed.

Although I have to say, PS3 doesn't look very much as a console but more as a Media Centre / Blu-ray Player / DVD Player device.

I love to game on in Xbox 360 (LIVE), but my favourite console? Sega Mega Drive and Sega Dreamcast (don't have neither now with me).

If Sega were to make Dreamcast 2 then Sega could go bankrupt and I wouldn't want that to happen to them. :)

I actually really love how the sharp twin famicom looks.  The model 1 japanese megadrive looks pretty awesome too.  And the model 2 american genesis looks great.  The model 1 super famicom looks pretty amazing as well.  And of course the av famicom and nes 2 are great looking systems as well.

Also in regards to controllers I love how the japanese megadrive controllers look, the super famicom controllers, and the dog bone nes / famicom controllers.

The N64 has my favorite design... it's curvy and has a nice outline. Closely behind is the SNES Jr. I love that little guy.

My favorite console, I'd have to say either the PS2 or the Dreamcast. Console design really isn't a big issue to me.
So ends another chapter in the glorious legend of the Ninja... Until next time...

I love the original white Japanese PC Engine, pure awesomeness. Also love the card based games and artwork on them.

Japanese model 1 Mega Drive

Neo Geo Pocket Color - love the digital joystick controller.

Dreamcast - I think it's a very sleek and modern looking device.

Neo Geo AES

AV Famicom and Twin Famicom

Drakon

oh yeah I totally forgot the slick looking AES

I think for me it's the Super Famicom.  The box design makes a big impact on this decision.

Closely followed by the PS1, I remember when I first saw that - it looked like a piece of conceptual product design, just state of the art and it still looks great now.  All the other consoles I thought of have aged a great deal.

I would also add the Gameboy to this.  I regularly play my gameboy DMG-01s and Gameboy Lights.  I love them like the little inanimate children they are.
