Why do people want the brick outside the box? I like it a lot better inside. Wii's is small but a pain in the ass sitting in the back of my cabinet behind my Wii.

360's is well, huge.

Sony's design in trying to keep it inside is much preferred.

Make the core product smaller? I dunno.

Again, its still better to have it inside. On the outside it just gets in the way.

I agree, but again, to make the core product cheaper they can make people get the "extra" stuff as external peripherals.

What extra stuff. Sony isn't going to make you buy the power cord / brick separately.

The only reason would be to make the physical box smaller, like Nintendo did with Wii. But, I'd rather have a few inches slapped on the back and only one slim cord going out back to wall.
