I had one once. It was my most prized possession. 😢

It’s not just a chair. It’s a piece of art.
it was also (easily) the most expensive thing I had ever owned, and I grabbed it off the curb. often I would just stare at it, because it was beautiful.
Neither, there are game versions of consoles sold with designs etched or formed directly into the shell itself. Here’s a Pokemon Black DSi version for example.
good design is timeless
this chair was designed in 1958 and still remains one of the most popular chairs in the world
Airline lobby bench seating.
These chairs go for $2500 a pop (for a reproduction). You’re not gonna see one of these in any lobby.
An authentic one from the 50s (when you can find one) sells at auction for $5-8k+

Long story short, I got evicted
I had 20 minutes to grab everything I could. So I grabbed my cat and my laptop and a suitcase full of clothes, and I was out the door.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Point well made
Don’t get me wrong, I do like how the DSi looks, but the ones with themes are 10x cooler, and it goes to show that the design CAN be exciting
to my knowledge, I’ve never seen this… whatever it is. I don’t even know what it is.
but it looks cool.
that’s worth a lot
Its one of those Nintendos that all the neighborhood grandkids are playing
be designs, you mean stickers or vinyl wraps
