Two simple reasons, no DVD and launching a year after PS2. I believe had Nintendo gone with the use of DVD as the format and releasing the same year as PS2 it would have been on equal terms with PS2. And I agree that the color choice was pretty bad. They should have started with grey and white and then later in the console life they could have gone crazy with other colors.
