And somehow the black one looks really unappealing to me. Amazing what a color change can do.

The problem with white models is that they get noticeably dirty really easily, not to mention they get yellower with time. But when they're clean and new they're usually the best looking for me, it's just that they're too needy and require more regular cleanup.
Black nowadays just has the problem of noticeable fingerprints, but that's just the modern glossy designs. The old rough plastic usually you can't really notice them looking dirty that easily.

There's this one which I believe is a custom made that looks way way better than the official purple translucent one

The Mark III and SG-1000 kinda have a DEC mini-computer peripheral imo, which is really cool.

Yeah the Vectrex look really good. Gotta love that vector monitor too. I think that I should get one someday and, as I know a bit a 6809 assembly language (the basic instructions and the CPU architecture) maybe develop something on it, it could be fun.
>>3510553
The Twin Famicom would look the best when paired with these Sharp red CRT TV/monitors they made in the 1980s.

no that's not custom, that's a DMG Game Boy, as in the original brick. One of the 'Play It Loud' variants was this translucent model. You're mixing it up with the Atomic Purple Game Boy Color.
