why don't console manufacturers make good stands anymore?
>>321809510
wtf is the point of this thing anyways? You can put the console on its side without it no problem. Same for Wii
>>321809959
Style.
>>321810465
The Wii stand looked good. PS2 stand was retarded looking.
>>321809959
That one's not even the most absurd.
>>321810568
>ps2 stand looked retarded
confirmed underage.
>>321809510
modern consoles don't hold up anyways
>>321809510
I had one of those. Only mine was solid black and had slots where you could put games. I thought it was neat until I got more than 10 games and it lost its purpose.
The Wii is the only Console that should be vertical. If you put PS3, PS4, or 360 vertically, get ready for your console to break.
>>321813217
Don't 360s scratch the fuck out of the disc if they are sideways? Or is that just if you move them while the disc is spinning?
>>321810618
wat
>>321809510you could turn the PS logo on the disk tray
>>321813428
You can do that on the fat PS3 as well.
>vertical systems
Anyone who does this is a fucking idiot.
>>321809510
That's fun how POWER and EJECT labels are made to stand the PS2 horizontally.
>>321814059
Wii and WiiU are too small to be standed horizontally. Also, PS3 is too curvy.
>>321809510
Unlike the WiiU's stand (if you can even call 2 flimsy pieces of plastic that), PS4's is actually pretty solid. What are you talking about?
>>321810618
this was one of the most hilarious things ever. i had one of those . blast from the past
>>321810618
It looks cooler, what else do you want
>>321809510
My friends Wii has a stand for its stand. Not even kidding.
Also, ps2 was better off on its side.
>post yfw you discovered ps2 logo could be turned 90 degrees
>>321810618
God damn, please just give me more blues boxes. Wonderful packaging.
>>321816423
I'm not saying it looks bad, the idea of buying a piece of plastic that does nothing but add a lip to the front of your console just amuses me.
>>321816596
it was a joke, you didnt need to reply
>>321816556
I thought mine was just badly glued or something
>>321813373
Pretty sure it was just if you moved it while a disc was spinning no matter what
Made a fucked up noise too
>>321810618
>a barrier keeping your console from overheating on the carpet
>absurd
Granted you could do the same thing with a piece of plexiglas for much cheaper but that's by no means a retarded peripheral
>>321816556
>yfw you discovered there's a hole in the back of yo ps2 and you can hide weed in there
das it maneand a 16gig pen full of porn
>>321810618
>people paid for this
Also
>ps4 stand is like $30 for a piece of plastic
>just using two bookends to hold it up
>ps4 media remote is like $60
Fuck that.
More importantly, why can't manufacturers make good startup sounds anymore?
>PS1
>Exciting and "High-tech" sounding, and a provocative color scheme
>PS2
>Dark and with a mysterious atmosphere and cool, simple visuals
>PS3
>Understated yet classic orchestra, simple & user-directed look
>FUCKING PS4
>Wheee so friendly and welcoming happy tones :}
>>321817089
>ps4 stand is like $30 for a piece of plastic
It was cheaper than that even before launch day. I got mine like a week before day1 PS4
>just using two bookends to hold it up
As opposed to literally nothing from other official stands
>>321817278
Right on. I was watching compilations of old startup sounds last night. Of note, the 6th gen altogether was fuckin incredible as well as the Japanese Saturn. The console start ups we have now are so sterile in comparison in audio and visual presentation.
>>321819218
Also meant to add Amazon has the Glacier White PS4 stand for like 13 bucks right now
>>321810618
Oh man I forgot how good-looking the fat PlayStation 2 was. There was just something about that blue gradient on the logo and accessories that made my balls moist.
>>321819440
In general I think Sony's fat systems look better.
>>321819218
console OS UI this gen is abominable across the board, last gen was fine so i don't know what the problem is

This 100%. It's the only console I can think of that worked perfectly fine upright. I've made the mistake of trying to have my PS2/3/360 upright. I've learned from my mistakes.
>>321819692
>UI that gets patched over 10 years is not as good as brand new UI
yea thats strange
>>321817278
>Dreamcast
Holy fuck it still hits me like yesterday.
>>321819837
excuse me? xbox 360 is the only console to change designs mid-gen, no reason to expect it from any unless the companies have said they're going to do it. wii and ps3 were fine from the start.
>>321819692
Last gen?
Wii was amazing since it was all right in front of you, 0 bullshit. Though I never buy digital, so for me it just looked empty.
PS3 originally was great I think. I liked the XMB, including the PSP. I hate when they kept adding stupid fucking extra tabs and Sony stupid services, so in the end it sucked.
360 BLADES WERE THE FUCKING SHIT, 10/10 LAST GEN UI. The NXE was complete shit, annoying navigation. The x10 one is somewhere in the middle, at least you can have all your shit in a pins tab, and it's easy to browse, but having ads is always horseshit.
This gen?
WiiU is the same.
PS4 is complete shit, it's exactly like the NXE on 360 that everyone hated.
Xbone launch was really made for Kinect, and for everyone else it sucked bad. The newest one is drastically better, but could still be improved in some areas.
>>321817278
PS is not badass like it used to be. That was under Ken Kutaragi. Now it's family fun with Andrew House
>>321819978
nah they were always fixing up the cross media bar , on ps3 and p
>>321817278
That's why the 20 year ps1 theme is the best theme for the system.
>>321820365
Getting a Hayao Miyazaki vibe from his new look here. Is this good or bad?
