Smoker?

It's a well-known issue with the flame retardant mixture in the plastic. Some do it, others don't, yet others have some yellow panels mixed with some gleamingly new-looking gray panels.

The wrong mixture was used for a long time. At some point, SNESes had some panels with good plastic and some with the bad mix. I haven't seen very many SNESes where all of the panels had the bad plastic...but that makes it even uglier.

I forgot how ugly and clunky Sega controllers tended to be, especially the Saturn.

System too. Shame though, they actually had a good system and a fair game lineup, but Sony changed the market so much and Sega just couldnt keep up. And Nintendo is now playing a different game.
The Dreamcast was a darn fine system but by that point they had already lost all their good franchises to Sony and were pretty much doomed, and a handful of good games wasnt enough to save them.

That's my brother's Skyline. It's mine now. The system is mine, but it's just been in the bottom drawer of a dresser so I sold it. I should sell my xBox also, but it's so convenient as a media center, even if it only has a 40GB HD in it.

SNES prob my fav nintendo system ever

I beat Super Mario World a few times today...and verified a glitch I remember.

I also played a good bit of DooM on SNES. It's so strange that I can't circle-strafe!
