Redesigns.  Nothing wrong with them and their very occasional now ever since Atari came out with their systems.  Recently, news of a redesign Wii is coming out to different territories.  Europe is getting a blue one and for Mario’s Anniversary, there was a limited edition red Wii release.  When the first 360 came out, the faceplates where interchangeable. You could have these cool designs and switch out but they faded out and we end up with this slim version now.  When the 3DS was shown at E3, they had different colors and now we have black, red, and blue.  Why do I bring all these up? What would these companies sells be if they release the colors when they first come out? Would you pay 50.00 extra to have that company custom made your system with colors and design?
 
Color design systems aren’t anything new or to exciting but to have that specific color or design in your room just makes gaming cool.  I know Game Informer show some websites and other gamers modded design of their systems and to them I say awesome job.  I know for me, when I got the white Wii, it was nice and clean.  I brought the black one and it makes the system, personally for me, more sexy and attractive.  The finish gloss on the black color is sophisticated and more mature.  The Gamecube I have is black.  In fact, all my last gen systems have been black and I love that.
 
Though I would like to at least see 4 colors release for the next systems.  I know color release systems at different times is good for business and slow sales, I would like to have least more options for a system.  I ask this question online and a lot of people would like to a transparent system.  Just to see the inside of a system work would be cool but the problem with that is the competition and other people will see how system works and that might cause infringement and other legal matters.  I would love to see that though.
 
I know for me, I would love to have a custom made Wii U system.  To have a nice looking Link on the back off the Wii-blet (wii tablet controller), it would be awesome (and worth 400?).  I would love to have a PS3 on the shelf with custom made Gran Turismo coated finish and design on the system or have Arthur from Marvel Vs Capcom 3 in his boxers with his lance being thrown.  Just something that would be nice on the system.
 
So readers.  What colors would you like to see on your next system purchase or what custom made design and color would you like to see for 50.00 extra?
