I'd have to go with the wood grain Atari 2600, I'm a sucker for 70's designed electronics.
Mega Drive 1 and 2, they both looked awesome

One more vote with OP. That Atari is a nice looking machine.
Dreamcast and the first Playstation.
For pure old school retro it would be the old Compaq suitcase-sized laptop PC.

PlayStation is one of my favourites but it also comes down to that shade of grey being my absolute favourite shade of grey. And the OG pre-dualshock/analog potentially being my favourite shape of controller too. I have a modded Bluetooth one but sadly there's not too many modern games (outside of fighters) that don't need both the dpad and analog.
I also love the Gameboy color's shape. As an adult it's great for one handed gaming for rpgs.
Damn, wood. Or wood-looking material at least.
The Atari Portfolio (the one John Connors uses in Terminator 2) or the ST Book.
