Sega's 16-bit console had many faces in different countries and different times. What is your favorite and/or less favorite design?

The first incarnation of Sega's European Megadrive looked awful in my opinion...

I'll go for the scrapped Neptune (the Genesis and 32X hybrid) when choosing my favorite...

Truthfully I like them both and cant really say which one I liked better but if I have to choose one I guess it would be the model 2 since thats the one I am more familiar with.

I like the model 2 because... well, that's what I have. But the model 1 is probably the best because it has that ventage look.

Nice picture there Tasuki, all I see is Papa Smurf.

Waveboy, I think all Genesis models had DIN connectors for composite output.

Anyway, I like this one the most because well, I just prefer the original NA consoles and all my consoles from NES to my PS3 are the original design.

It has the awesome headphone jack (because that was the only output for "stereo") and is very Darth Vader in appearance especially when you start adding on all the other Sega crap.

To blessed to be stressed.
80's music makes me feel fabulous.

the model 3, i had the original but i like all the smaller systems, they look better and they are newer so less ware and tare=double win. i also have a top loading nes, mini snes and the thin ps2 for the same reasons.

And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)

No they don't. For example the NES toploader looks like the scrap from R5-D4.

The toploader looks like something I should rest my feet on and get a foot massage while I am watching TV.
Oh and I am not done yet either. The orginal NES came with AV output while this one was RF only. WTF?

yeah i know lol.
it was due to "cut backs" for a cheaper console price cuz the SNES was on its way...you can get the top loading NES modded if you choose. also the region locked was took out so you can play a lot of PAL region games on the top loader as well. i dont have an issue whipping out the ol toaster with a new 72 pin connect, i just love the smaller systems.

^ some sites re-mod the image people take from their sites after a few seconds or a day just because you jacked their image
