If you're wondering about the shape, that was due to the number one reason for ruined NES units was spilled liquid.  NOA altered the shape of SNES so that it was difficult to set a drink on it.

Still a pretty dumb justification for taking the sleek and nice looking JP/PAL design and making it look butt ugly.
