The Series X has a monolith-like presence that I love, and the Series S is a minimalist throwback to the designs of Dieter Rams (From whom Apple has taken all their design inspiration). It has a modern sculpture-like appearance to it when in the vertical position.

Gamecube is the world's coolest Fisher Price product. King of B-Tier with "A-Tier energy". It's never been peak. It's like when the nerd gets a makeover but then afterwards settles for a happy practical medium, N64 but not embarrassing. Genesis is King of C-Tier. It punches up with unintentional swagger. Think Jack Black in Anchorman. Nothing else is that wild on this list. PS1 is maybe bottom of A-Tier, it's as slick as a console could possibly be for it's time but it's missing something. I'd like to think the Xbox's in general could be higher. I'd probably defend PS5 more than most but the plate fins look cheap, especially with white on black - a black PS5 could do A for me. Series S could go F or S, I have no idea, it's confusing to look at.
