I’d have to go with the wood grain Atari 2600, I’m a sucker for 70’s designed electronics.

    PC Engine. Not only does it look like a prop from the set of TNG, but it is delightfully tiny. The cartridges are little cards that you slot in the front. There is literally nothing bad about a PC Engine. (Except for maybe that it’s only got one controller port)

      +1.

      Also it can be turned into a coolest spaceship, with its CDRom attachment, a very first in 1988!

      Also the HuCard format for its games is unbeatable!

        Speaking of spaceships…

        Not the most practical PC engine model, because it lacked the extra oomph of the SuperGrafx and you couldn’t attach a CD-ROM² - but just look at it

      The PC Engine/Turbagragix 16 also had a handheld (PC Engine GT/TurboExpress) that was way ahead of its time. It had the same power as the home console, was color, had a backlit display, and even had a TV tuner attachment. And it was released in 1990. The Sega Nomad basically copied these features in 1995, and Nintendo didn’t have a colored, backlit handheld until 1998.

      I loved mine.
