Two theories.

One is that they wanted to discourage Americans from putting soda cans on the system and then spilling them and damaging the system, which happened a lot with the original NES and looked like it could happen with the Famicom design. There's actually a Nintendo training video where a guy tries to return a NES he spilled his soda on and claims it came that way as a nod to how often this shit happened.

The second is that it looks a lot less "intimidating" and has more childish charm, its almost "pink," and looks like a play box or something.

The last theory, the one I have, is that Super Nintendo was designed to match the Atari XEGS boxy look with pastels and neutral tones.
