1953 called - they'd like their industrial design back.

These colors seem to be very popular in Japan for some reason, just look t the DS and PSP. Let's just hope they don't start making "harvest gold" and "avocado green" to match our 1970s' appliances. Although the girl holding the blue one is very cute :)

here in N.A., we do not get that blue controller. Ours is a bit darker of a shade of blue (for the better)

If I could get the actual xbox in the blue color I'd buy the controller with it. Otherwise it wouldn't match with my white one :(
Other than that... I think the blue is pretty cool, and I don't mind the availability of different colors.

Actually, Henry Ford never said that. He was a evil, raciest, Nazi collaborating bastard, so you don't really want to quote him too much anyway.

I guess you're right... Looked it up and he actually said: "Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black"...
It's from his autobiography.

Heh, I was told he never said it at all. Seeing how the modle T was in a number of colours it seemed valid to me. Meh, not that it matters. He was still a evil dick tho.

Oh yes a very evil man. I mean how could he provide higher jobs wages, and how dare he become one of the first people in America to give benefits to employees! That kind of behavior must be stopped. Fear not citizens the communists are here to save the day!

@ Poisoned Al...
Initially the Model T was available in other colors, but eventually they adopted mass production techniques which required the use of black paint as it was the fastest drying paint available.

Yeah, not worth mocking. We all know the Japanese tend to go for this stuff. And, if you think, so do Americans. Multicolored DSs? Multicolored PSPs? Multicolored iPod Nanos and Zunes? Let's not forget that the N64 and Gamecube both launched with a choice of colors for the controllers, and with the Gamecube for the system itself.

So, everytime a new product is unveiled in Japan, there is an uber hot girl showing the product off. What a flippin' amazing country.

Man, a heat-sensitive 360 would be *awesome*. It would be deep blue when it is turned off, and the longer it runs, the more red it gets.

It would also be a nice red-ring warning. ;)

Releasing multiple colored systems means nothing when you put it up against Nintendo's track history.

I can't even begin to count how many GBC/GBP/GBM/GBA/Sp/DS/DSlite colors/"special editions" there have been.

Um, maybe it'll end when we actually get a decent fucking selection of controller colors. Yes, I'd rather play with a smooth blue than iShite white, if the price is the same.

Yeah, I have 5 controllers as it is now, so I'll just mod one or all of mine if I ever get /that/ bored of the way they look. If you want to know why 5, well I just got a wired cause it's more comfortable to play with, use the wireless when I have company though, friends are stupid and like to rip the cords out when they're loosing.
