Summary:The Console Gals (formally the Console Girls) are human renditions of video game consoles. Each console gal was created by Mister Pickles (vnartist). I prefer to not attach the -tan suffix, but it can be opted if you prefer to call them that instead.
Conception:
The Console Gals borrows its idea heavily from the OS-tans. It was nice seeing a horrid system like Windows get some neat characters, and I had thought that since the OS were able to get some personas why not the video game consoles? So in 2004 Mister Pickles (proof link) created the Console Girls Warehouse where it did not reach much fanfare due to poor marketing. Since the tan suffix implied younger girls I opted for Gals instead as to include the more older age range ladies. Also while a few girls will look like their systems (e.g. NES Girl) most of them are influenced by their designs mainly because a lot of consoles are pretty boring looking.
Return:
The Console Gals are back, but this time I am going to spread them around. For the few of you who are familiar with the old Console Girls some characters have received huge overhauls, while others remained pretty much the same. Also included in the return are systems that were not included in the original debut.
