    Oh come on guys, The Halo 360's aren't THAT bad ;P.

    Worst LE console = Hello Kitty Xbox.

    Hehe,

    -Doom

    I think if you like an Halo Xbox 360, you have to have a knack for military stuff to begin with...maybe. I think that might influence me on it.

    Is there really a Hello Kitty Xbox? I'd love to have one.

    The Sakura Taisen dreamcast doesn't look that bad either.

    The LE 360s that have reached my country have all been ugly as sin, excepting the Resident Evil 5 one, or as I like to call it, "Char Custom".

    Well, that Hello Kitty Xbox really is ugly as sin...

    And this coming from someone who loves Hello Kitty.

    It really is fucking horrible. I expected a much prettier design.

    I don't think that counts as a real limited edition, they made so many of the things that they were around way after the death of GC. There was also a similar platinum "Limited Edition" GBA that was in actuality really common.

    I think the platinum was intended to be a limited run but it sold so much better than the purple cubes they figured might as well keep it around.

    does anyone know how badly the purple cubes sold? Why the hell did they even use that as it's default color? IMO That threw people off INSTANTLY. I remember they showed at Space World 2001 about 6 different colors, gold silver orange black purple and another one, and at launch they had PURPLE and black.

    Just get both. :D
    <-Two purples (first two GCNs), but they were both free (one needed a new pickup and the other was labeled broken but... just fine, as I played through SM Sunshine on it with no trouble). One black, because I wanted a black one.

    Damnit, now I want to play Gamecube. I have neglected those things for too long. And now it's almost 5AM. Bastages!

    Lets see.

    1. WHY didn't we get the Emerald Green ("blue"?) controllers in the USA? GOOD LORD do I want one of those. Even a worn-out one so I can swap shells.
    2. I thought the purple (isn't it indigo, technically?) GBAs looked dumb as hell next to the white and the glacier, but now I've seen so many damn glaciers and silvers that I really want an indigo.
    3. Spice was badass. EXCEPT when your grimy friend has a spice controller and the damn thing turns green in the cracks from all the skin oil and other disgusting crap.
    -I take pride in my white PS3 controller and how mother f-ing clean that SOB is. Getchyer dirty paws off!

    Better question: Why didn't we get the Mario&Luigi controllers in the Nintendo Club shop in Europe? You could buy them for Nin-Points in Japan, but not over here. That would've made me buy A LOT more games to get some points. When they changed their shop scheme to grab more consumer information I quickly cashed in my remaining points for a Yoshi metal keychain and deleted my account, got enough spam in my inbox already.
