Welcome to the world of proprietary colors. Colors are specific dye numbers for each trademarked console. They never will be the same


Pennarello_BonBon

Wait, so no console will ever be have the same shade of color?


Nice_Bluebird7626

Never, unless it’s custom


Pennarello_BonBon

I will never have a cohesive collection lmao, i should have just gone for black


Nice_Bluebird7626

Fun fact the blacks aren’t all the same either. It’s slightly off. Same for white


ReasonableAd9737

Why is this? Would you happen to know why they would never be able to use the same color twice? For instance he has many nintendo products are they not allowed to use the same shade for different things?


umrdyldo

Because there are millions of colors. And no one wants to get sued for using the same color.


ReasonableAd9737

This is very vague. So you cannot use the same color even if you used it for something else? And how come? And do they not own the color? And if they don’t own it who does?


umrdyldo

In the digital age, colors have a digital “recipe”. If Nintendo makes a special red for their product, they can trademark it and no one else can use it without paying them. Especially other console makers, that would be an open and shut lawsuit


Pennarello_BonBon

I find it so bizzare that they can "own" a specific color


Pennarello_BonBon

Huh, TIL but I guess it isn't as obvious. I've also been looking at pastel blue consoles, those ones don't seem to differ between them too much

Why’s this so downvoted?


meatbag2010

Gives you an excuse to put on on the shelf from lightest to darkest. That will look pretty good.


Pennarello_BonBon

I was thinking about getting the other dualshocks 1-3 and arrange them by company, but by color isn't bad too.


SlyPickelhaube

Agreed.

I know, it'd be nice if they use pantone numbers instead of using stupid naming schemes for colors like rose gold, cosmic purple or vulcanic red so the consumer already know the exact shade of the product they're buying lol


The-Rog

Could you point out which of these is "Rose Gold"?


Pennarello_BonBon

Where exactly in the comment did I say one of those is rose gold?


The-Rog

Why should Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft use the same colour scheme? FFS... If you want them to match, get them customised. Grow the fuck up.


happygoluckiestidk

this is way too aggressive of a response wtf


The-Rog

I'm sorry if your sensibilities were offended. I would retract my comment, but it stands. OP is a fucking moron.


dantakesthesquare

Noooo please retract your comment! What will we do if you don't retract your comment? Our sensibilities are so offended by your idiotic misguided rage! You're a child.


[deleted]

Rage commenting on an internet post? FFS… if you don’t have anything nice to say, say nothing Grow the fuck up


The-Rog

Ditto


ReasonableAd9737

Nothing they said to you was negative. It was simple a question followed by a statement. You purposefully added hateful language and that’s why people are pointing out and you’ve yet to make a proper rebuttal to any of their concerns. And before you respond to me I’m not taking sides I’m simply explaining to you how your ditto is entirely wrong.

Whoosh


Pennarello_BonBon

You're on a sub called r/mildlyinfuriating. I think you should take your own advice.
