I loved it. Back when it released, I thought it was the coolest looking thing. The hype for the SNES was so crazy in my school back then. When I finally saw one in person (I was too poor to afford it, so I only got to play it when I'd sleep over at my cousin's house every few months), I was blown away. I still think it's a pretty slick design.
The EU SNES kind of looks like an old school tape deck of some kind. I think the US SNES looks like it wouldn't ever be mistaken for one of these:
To be fair, I grew up with the US SNES, so it's kind of seared into my brain that that's what that console looks like. I imagine it's the same for those that grew up with the other versions of the system.
