good design is timeless

this chair was designed in 1958 and still remains one of the most popular chairs in the world

    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

    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+

    Just more proof that the History Monks are real. They say it doesnt really matter so much that time goes back in the exact right order, as long as the general shape of history is fine.

    It explains why humans have got tribes in jungles hunting with sticks while also having semi-sentient robots on Mars singing happy birthday to itself.

    Oh for real! I can’t believe Astral Projection released Trust in Trance in the mid-90s, and they had been making music like that since the 80s.

    Why does it look like a white Pokédex?

    It's the other way around. GameFreak redesigns the Pokedex each generation to resemble contemporary hardware. Gens 1 through 4 looked like the handheld you were playing on, 5 onwards look like a smartphone, and in Let's Go only it looks like a laptop.

    But it looks like the Gen 1 Pokédex to me, which did not really look like a Gameboy (I'm also pretty sure the Hoenn Pokédex did not look like a GBA until the remake)

    you can pry my DSLite from my cold dead hands.

    never had the DSi or any of the nintendo handhelds after the DSLite.

    I do have a retroid pocket that I'm in love with right now. my only problem is that I can't take it anywhere without my kids stealing it from me.

    The original DSi was my favorite DS model. Still have mine. It's too small for my hands now days though.
