Silver Invasion - [ videogames ]

Who decided that silver was a better look than black for electronics? Think about it. TVs, DVD players, stereos, and cell phones, all once painted black, now come exclusively in silver. Why is that?

Is it because we're in the 2000's and there are no super advanced terminators running around, no hoverboards, no virtual reality home videogaming (no, Nintendo's Virtual Boy doesn't count), and they're trying to generate the illusion of better technology?

The Xbox and the PS2 were among the few not caving in to the recent trend of chrome gaudiness. Now both of their successors, the PS3 and Xbox 360 have too become this color.

Silver is ugly and it looks cheap. Go back to making things the old way, in black.

Yeah. Whatever you just like blackmetal, and black clothing. I am sure it will come in black or you can spray paint it black. Hey at least its not baby blue or pink........later

I think it looks pretty neat. The Nintendo Revolution even looks better on silver than on black in my opinion.

To answer your question.. It's because whites are better than blacks

*ZING~*

On that note, the REVOLUTION is a sleek black. EH EH?Give Nintendo 10 points now.

I'm gonna go with White over black or silver. White is so sleak, clean, and it radiates light quite nicely. Although, black does match my big screen. haha.

That may have been the reason I like the PSP over the DS. That, or a little something called "Nintendogs."
