Do you all skin your consoles? I was browsing the Series X subreddit and it's constant posts about people putting skins and animu weeboo stickers on their brand new Xbox to give it that 1997 pawn shop appeal.

It was all very surprising to me.

That's quite some thread title and no I don't. The appearance of my console has no effect on its capabilities.

Ew no.

 

[ZippyTheOtter]

Ouch my brain from that title.

But no - I only use first party variants, and never one dedicated to an individual game/series.

 

[Nankatsu]

I only clicked in the title in hopes of understanding it.

Post some examples OP, I wanna see those waifus you are talking about.

 

[Blitzmangoman]

I hope you stub your toe on furniture and then step on a lego OP. Wtf is that title?

Screen protectors on handhelds, that's about it.

This thread title...
Edit : I bought once a special edition 3DSXL for Monster hunter but I regretted it after.

LOL skins, call them what they really are. Tacky looking stickers that make your console look like trash.

 

[BlackGauna]

If I had gotten a PS5 I would have maybe put an all black skin on it.

Welcome back to the 80s.
Nope.

Some examples if you don't know what they are...

Why would I want to cover that glorious monolith?

 

[LordBlodgett]

For both the title (what is that!!!) and the stickers

 

[Mista]

Nah, thats so 2000-2002. I only get official themed ones now if I liked any

Jokes aside though, who the hell want this on their console? I even assume its impossible to stick on without getting bubbles under it, and good luck getting that shit off your console afterwards. Can't imagine how great the gloss will look like on the ps4 afterwards.

I came here for the cheese and didn't find any. Here's my contribution.

 

[JimboJones]

Nah skins are lame but I wouldn't be opposed to changing the actual case if custom shells became available and where easy enough to install.

 

[Esppiral]

No, I am not 12 years anymore

 

[Stilton Disco]

I never bother with skins because they can fade, get scratched or peel.

Swapping cases, buttons and sticks is great fun though.
