Colorware concocts competent console coloring

For those who just need their console match the drapes and scream personality, this looks like a relatively inexpensive and painless solution. Although the colors above look like '80s jacket, '50s refrigerator and hospital green, there's actually a great assortment of colors to choose from. You can always attempt to do a custom paint-job yourself, but for those who would go ahead a purchase another console just for a color, spending the $100 - $200 here might be just a little more economical.

Looks like a Warhol painting.

Whoever did these knew what they were doing.
Too bad they are colour blind.

$200 is relatively inexpensive? Next time try not to make it so obvious that this isn't a post, it's an advertisement.
Skins from decalgirl.com are $15.

"Skins from decalgirl.com are $15."
As an added bonus, they don't look nearly as good!

Please! Check www.llama.com/xbox360 to see cases of different colors and textures for way less, even transparent.

Yeah it's better to get a replacement vanity case I reckon. What if your 360 catches a bad case of "teh phaulty phirmwarez"? It's not like you still have your original case to ship it back with because your original case now has a paint job that set you back a couple hundred bucks.

The Wii on display here is mediocre and the XBox is hideous but that green PS3 is hot. I could go for that.
Einhanderkiller @ Apr 28th 2007 10:00PM
The red and black Wii actually looks pretty cool, though it would be better if the controller were black, or a mixture of red and black.
The other two, however, are hideous (teal PS3? What?).
GWolf @ Apr 28th 2007 11:20PM
I have allways though that my PS3 should have come with a laquered wood exterior for what it cost.

Poisoned Al, That's a cheap shot at your color-deficient friends. :P
I kinda dig that Wii.. It screams Virtualboy .
letmethinkaboutit @ Apr 29th 2007 2:29AM
Dang no wonder Sony Chose black! That is one ugly machine! The 360 looks good even in that ugly shade of blue. What is that? Its not NC blue it just sucks.
Poisoned Al @ Apr 29th 2007 3:33AM
@ Emceay. True. Even colour blind people can tell these are fugly!

todays post brought to you by the letter "c"
Jacob @ Apr 29th 2007 11:09AM
I think the 360 looks great in that colour. The other two, not so much.
Joop: Decals and paint jobs are very different things. It takes SKILL to make a paint job not look like crap, but when you do it looks incredible. A decal is just a sticker.

i'll wait on nintendo's official versions... oh wait... virtual console purchases are tied to the system they were purchased on... !!!!
Joop @ Apr 29th 2007 2:33PM
@6 that's not an ad, it's a comparison.
t_m @ Apr 30th 2007 8:22AM
look better than any OOT skins i've seen so far..
but joystiq obviously has a different idea of "relatively inexpensive" than i do..
