[UPDATE] First images for the Mad Box standalone console released

mad box.jpg

Slightly Mad Studios barely dropped the news that they are working on an independent console to take on the next generation of consoles that the company's CEO, Ian Bell, released the first image renders of the console on Twitter:

It seems like Bell could not hold his excitement to share these designs as images of early design builds were initially expected to be released in four to six weeks' time.

The console, called the Mad Box, is projected to ship in around three years and is being boasted as "most powerful console ever built" with 4K and VR support.

What do you think of those early designs? Some more fine-tuning is required or you'd be happy to own a console that looks like that?

UPDATE

After sharing the first render of the Mad Box, Ian Bell took to Twitter again to share some more possible looks of his company's upcoming console. Which one do you prefer?

Not atrocious, different

The gamecube is different, as well as the genesis model 1 and original ps3 mentioned before. This is different and atrociously designed. Looks like the kind of stuff you see in kickstarters with weird designs for the sake of weird design (Im looking at you, asterisk controllers)

I hear you, we all have different opinions, what really matters is what's under the hood.

I mean you can have a different design all you want. That's great. That's innovative.

But it does not mean that it's a good design. I for one, do not like it. And I have a hard time believing the general public will find this design appealing as well.

Making designs for a device that does not exist...


Reminds me of people that make trailers for movies/shows that did not start filming yet.
A.K.A.: A lot of the time it's all talk and no bite.
