What would consoles look like gone Steampunk?

I am a complete sucker for certain eras, no doubt more than half of the reason I was completely obsessed with BioShock for months on end. Apparently I’m not alone, as Something Awful did up a recent Photoshop Phriday with elegant images of consoles reimagined as a part of their “A Better World” theme.

It hurts me that that the wooden DS does not exist. I would whip out a gold stylus and be snobby in public with all the pride my little heart could muster. I would also happily don three-piece suits and rock watch chains, but that’s another story altogether.
