Chapter Text
“I can’t believe this is happening to me.” PS4-tan paced back and forth in her room, clutching a package in her arms. Her head continued to race with thoughts, as her face burned a bright red.
PS4-tan had always prided herself on her mature looks and attitude. Something she expressed in her clothing was her black jacket emblazoned with the number 4 on it, her black tights, and her dark boots. Her refinement was something she always lorded over the other console-tans. No matter how popular or how many games they had, when people looked at her, they could see her maturity. However, that has all started to come apart.
PS4-tan stopped suddenly as she shouted out loud, “No, this is unfair!” In one quick motion, she threw the package in her hands onto the ground, causing it to softly hit the floor with a crinkle. Distraught PS4-tan stormed over to the wall in her room. As she placed her back against it, she sank to the ground. As she made contact to the ground, the same noise that emanated from the package came off of her in much larger volume. Hearing it caused PS4-tan to cringe as she finished settling on the ground. She placed her head between her thighs and closed her eyes as she sank into her depression.
Some time passed as the sun continued to move further west in the sky, causing it to fill PS4-tan’s room. As her feelings of self-pity began to wear off, she began to open her eyes. Looking down, she could see her boots, as she turned her vision to her left corner, she could see a pair of her tights on the ground that had once been on her waist. Bringing her eyes back to her bare legs, PS4-tan traced them back to the most proximal portion of her body, only to be greeted with a thick and smooth plastic blackness where her underwear should be.
Sigh, the one time having 1920x1080 has made things worse. PS4-tan sighed as she thought to herself. Her high resolution made most faults easy to notice; in this case had made the bulge under the tights all the more questionable, and rendered them useless at hiding what was underneath. And now with this, I’m up to 4K, just my luck. Unable to sink further into despair, PS4-tan turned her gaze towards the package in front of her.
The package shone in the bright room with a black plastic sheen, right on the front in big bold letters: “New and Improved PS4 Pro!”
PS4-tan let out another sigh, “‘Improved’ my ass…” As she said this, she could feel her face turning red as she realized the implication of her statement. To save further embarrassment, she retreated to keeping her thoughts in her head. All they did was make me more bulky and noticeable! PS4-tan pouted. She knew there was a bit more to it, but for now, that’s what was bothering her.
Reaching out her arm, PS4-tan slid the package closer to herself. As she squeezed her hand into the package, it deformed slightly to accommodate the displacement and gave off a smooth plastic sound as she slid it next to her. Looking down, she could better see the writing on the package.
“Extra absorbent to handle those accidental frame skips!”
“Designed to handle outputs as large as Ultra HD and 4k”
“A thicker design with more absorbent cores!”
“Size: Medium”
UGH! Why did they have to get so detailed!? Reading it only made PS4-tan’s face redder. I mean, sure, I was starting to have more accidents with frames as the newer games came out… But diapers!?
PS4-tan shifted her weight forward, and as she did, she could feel her diaper squish under her weight. It has been a couple of hours since she was outfitted with it to deal with her accidents, and although it was working, it didn’t help to alleviate her embarrassment. Why didn’t they just put me out to pasture when they had the chance!? Here she was, an adult gaming console unable to run for a few hours without having an accident.
Sigh… WiiU-tan and 3ds-tan will never let me live this down… Needing protection was something that always afflicted the Nintendo-tans. Although this was something that was never brought up regarding Nes-tan and SuperNES-tan, ever since N64-tan was unable to handle her own games without a “Power Pak,” not a single Nintendo-tan has been out of diapers. A fact that only helped to push them as kid-friendly, and helped to bring about their nickname “Nintoddlers.” A nickname PS4-tan loved to throw around ad nauseum just to tease them for their diaper dependency and lack of hardcore games.
“Hey, it’s PS4! And she’s gotten so grown up she ended up in granny diapers!”
“Eww, 3ds, what’s that smell?” “Hey, it wasn’t me, Wii U, I just changed!” “So I guess that means PS4 had another accident…”
“Quick, someone get the diaper bag! PS4’s diaper is about to leak!”
PS4-tan attempted to force a few more future incidents into her head but was left unable to. In the end, she rolled her eyes and sighed as she let her mind wander on its own.
WiiU-tan was slightly older than her, and as much as she hated to admit it, she always did look up to her. Although WiiU-tan did need diapers, it didn’t detract from how much of an adult she was. She loved to run around and was a child at heart, yet at the same time, she put a lot of work into running more mature games and making sure all the console-tans were taken care of. Even when PS4-tan walked in on WiiU-tan changing her diaper after running her more adult-oriented library, she couldn’t help but feel an illogical inferiority compared to her; something she could never explain.
Then there was 3ds-tan, who was even older than WiiU-tan. Back when she first came out, everyone was sure she’d escape the Nintendo-tan’s family curse of being diaper-dependent. While 3ds-tan wasn’t close to acting her age, it always seemed like something was on her mind. Yet, she always conveyed a carefree sense and became obscenely popular with everyone. In the end, she ended up back in diapers herself, but this didn’t have any effect on her or her popularity. Even with her needing a change every so often, she continued running through life with everyone loving her, from children to adults. PS4-tan knew that although 3ds-tan would go to great pains to get on her nerves, she never did it out of spite, but more to remind her to relax every once in awhile.
“Hey, PS4, you going to get changed? You mind if we change each other? I just got back from a way too long streetpass session.”
“It’s okay, PS4, I have one diaper left, and you need it much more than I do. When I told 3ds-tan we were both running low, she ran off to buy some more for us. So how about I wait for her while you get changed?”
“You had a bad dream? Sure, you can sleep with us tonight, PS4! Sorry if it’s weird, but me and 3ds like to recharge in cradles when we… PS4? Wow, I’ve never seen her fall asleep so fast! Maybe she’d like-”
PS4-tan shook her head vigorously to prevent herself from finishing the scenario playing out in her head. As much as she wanted to believe they’d be half as hard on her as she was being to herself, she knew that wasn’t in their nature. Sure, they fought, but it was more like sisters than anything else.
No matter how much they argued or what tricks they played on one another, when it came down to it, they always looked out for each other. Sure, they will tease me for a bit, but after that… Knowing them, they’ll probably do whatever they can to make me feel better about this. But Xbone-tan on the other hand…
In reality, the one thing truly weighing on her mind was what Xbone-tan was going to think. The two of them have been rivals ever since they met; it has always been that way. PS4-tan reached down and, in a sort of morbid curiosity, flipped up the front of her skirt to expose her diaper. It was evident that it had been used based on how much it had swollen in appearance. There is no way I can show my face to her like this… For PS4-tan and Xbone-tan, their rivalry was legendary, as they both fought tooth and nail to one-up the other. Xbone-tan, being the youngest out of them all and, as such, always tended to take things farther than they needed to go.
It’s kinda funny, now that I am wearing this, I won’t have anymore accidents with my frames, I could rub it in her face. She could feel the faint warmth of her diaper, indicating that it had recently spared her from unknowingly wetting herself. But it’s not like this is much better…
Xbone-tan herself wasn’t perfect; she always compulsively called her dad every day, and is always obsessed with keeping an eye on things. Probably the one thing she hated most about herself was her weight. This was due to her being the heaviest console-tan of them all. Being PC’s younger sister and the newest console-tan on the market made her very popular, but she ended up really self-conscious over how much better her brother was. This made her take to competing with PS4-tan to help her prove she was just as good as the other console-tans.
Well, I might as well be the one to tell her I now need diapers, better than her finding out for herself. PS4-tan stood up. Heck, maybe I’ll get to keep some of my dignity this way. As she pressed down on her diaper, she could feel it approaching saturation. Concerned PS4-tan reached down to do a thorough diaper check. Pressing into it she realized it wasn’t too used, but the thought of going to talk to Xbone-tan about a mature matter in a used diaper wasn’t very appealing to her. Reaching down, PS4-tan grabbed the package of Pro Diapers and began to open them. Pulling out one of the black diapers with the PlayStation 4 insignia, much like the one she was wearing, PS4-tan sighed. I guess I might as well start getting used to changing myself.
PS4-tan walked down the hallway towards Xbone-tan. Unable to fit her tights over her bulky diaper, PS4-tan opted to wear one of her long business skirts, along with a long-sleeved t-shirt with a design similar to her jacket. Although she had changed her diaper, she didn’t realize that a clean diaper made a louder crinkling noise than her used one.
Standing in front of Xbone-tan’s room, PS4-tan took a deep breath, as she made sure her clothes were orderly and wrinkle-free. Alright, I guess I might as well get this over with.
PS4-tan stuck her hand out and knocked on the door. With as much refinement as she could manage given the circumstances, he began. “Hey Xbone-tan, could you allow me to come inside? There’s something very important that I need to discuss with you.”
At first, there was silence, then suddenly a voice yelling from the other side. “GO AWAY! I-I’m really busy right now!”
PS4-tan was surprised to hear Xbone-tan yelling and sounding somewhat upset. But now that she had spent all that time preparing herself, she couldn’t walk away. “Would it be alright if I came back in a little while? Again, this is very important.”
Suddenly, Xbone yelled once again. “GAH! N-no! Don’t talk to me today! Or ever! I’m busy! Leave me alone!”
Hearing this only seemed to enrage PS4-tan. Is she serious!? She always freaks out about the stupidest things and calls her dumb dad! “Screw it! Xbone, I am coming in!”
“Don’t you dare!” Xbone-tan shot back, sounding desperate. A sound of a large crash erupted from the room. “Crap! Don’t! L-look, even if you did, I won’t even listen to whatever you have to say! So there!”
“Won’t listen to what I have to say!? Oh, we will see about that!” PS4-tan always had a habit of keeping her cool, but once she got fired up, it was hard to tell exactly what she was about to do. Without a single shred of shame, she unbuttoned her skirt and threw it to the ground, fully exposing her diaper. “We are settling this NOW!”
Her hardcore persona shattered, the enraged, half-dressed, and diapered console-tan, PS4-tan, threw her frame into the door, causing the door to slam open. In her enraged state, she had forgotten that Xbone-tan, being one who disliked anyone having any privacy, refused to install a lock on her own door.
“Okay, Xbone, take a good look at me beca…” PS4-tan froze. Something was terribly wrong. As she looked at the ground, she could see Xbone-tan scrawled on the floor, without her helmet on, clutching a package.
Something that upset her more than anything was being seen without her helmet on, exposing her long white hair and green eyes. As the console-tan scrambled to put it back on, she completely ignored the fact that her black dress had ridden up, exposing a thick whiteness underneath.
“Uh… Xbone?” PS4-tan asked, confused.
Xbone-tan grabbed her helmet and got it back on. She finally felt calm enough to examine her surroundings. Looking down at herself, she realized her dress had ridden up, exposing her new puffy underwear in front of PS4-tan. The sudden realization of those caused her to close her eyes and react with surprise. “P-PS4! What are you doing in my room!?” Instinctively, she used the package in her arms to cover her crotch from PS4-tan's piercing gaze, only to leave it in a position where PS4-tan could read the front of it.
“Newly Redesigned Xbox One S!”
Hey wait a minute! Those look kind of like the diapers they gave me for my problem. PS4-tan began to realize that she wasn’t the only console having accidents while outputting frames. For that matter, it appeared that they attempted to solve Xbone-tan’s problem much like they did for her. Most of the package reads like her own except for one detail in the bottom right corner.
Size: Large
“Huh, I didn’t know you wore a size bigger than me. I guess that’s what all that Kinect fitness craze thing was all about.” PS4-tan replied somewhat dazed, but with an attempt at humor.
Confused at what PS4-tan meant, Xbone-tan opened her eyes to properly look at the console-tan in front of her. There was a smile and a look of relief on PS4-tan’s face, and her shirt was slightly crooked from her attempt to break in. Although either of those things on their own would have made Xbone-tan suspicious, it was what PS4-tan was wearing on her waist that surprised her. “Hey, wait! Why are YOU wearing THAT!?” Xbox exclaimed.
Seeing Xbone-tan’s flabbergasted expression, PS4-tan felt her confidence return, “Well, if you must know.” PS4-tan placed her hands on her hips and tilted her pelvis to give Xbone-tan a better look at her diaper. “You are looking at the New and Improved PS4 Pro!” She could feel the irony in what she was doing, but there was something far too fun about the act for her to pass up. “Now, I can’t be beat by an inferior overpriced PC like you, Xbot!”
Xbone-tan felt her face turn red in a combination of embarrassment and anger for being talked down like that. Standing up, Xbone placed her pack of diapers down and raised one foot to step onto the package to give her some footing. This caused her dress to rise up, giving a better view of her own diaper. “HA! That's rich coming from you! Feast your eyes on the Newly Redesigned Xbox One S!” Xbone-tan smiled as her sense of rivalry returned, overpowering the embarrassment she once felt. “Now watch as I run more Triple A games than you ever dreamed you could, Sonybrony!”
As the two of them stood there, their gaze was locked. With the same look of determination they were known for, they were ready to defend their respective brands tooth and nail. Silence filled the room as they waited for their opponent to act.
As quickly as it began to form, the thick atmosphere was soon cut apart by the faint sound of hissing, evident that one of them was wetting their diaper. No guess work was needed to determine who did it as Xbone-tan’s face soon turned a bright red, as their diaper gained a faint yellow color. Seeing the flustered younger console-tan, PS4-tan broke out laughing, only for Xbone-tan to join her.
Their thunderous laughter filled the room as the two console-tans came to terms with the strange day that had plagued both of them. Finally, after they had spent the whole day worrying about what the other was going to think, they found relief. As their laughter died down, the two diapered console-tans continued to smile, having found a newfound friendship mixed in with their lifelong rivalry. But, before either of them could say another thing, a voice called out from outside Xbone-tan’s room.
“Say Cheese!”
Turning into the hallway, they could see 3ds-tan standing there in just her red and blue t-shirt with the word 3-D written on the chest, and her fully used diaper on display. She was holding two cameras, one in each hand, and standing next to her was WiiU-tan, trying her hardest not to laugh.
Snap Flash
The two cameras went off simultaneously to capture the somewhat bizarre and embarrassing scene in front of them.
“You know, I always wondered what 3-D blackmail looked like. Looks like we’ll finally find out!” 3ds-tan stuck her tongue out at the two of them, enraging Xbone-tan.
“HEY! Hand that over, 3ds!” Xbone-tan was prepared to do whatever it took to get those cameras back.
3ds-tan smiled coyly as she responded. “Hmmm… tell you what! You change my diaper, and I’ll hand them over, deal?”
This only upset Xbone-tan more, “I’ll give you a change alright!” Xbone-tan began to quickly step towards 3ds-tan.
3ds-tan saw this coming and quickly tossed one of the cameras to WiiU-tan. Taking a few steps back, she continued to taunt Xbone-tan.
Xbone-tan stepped forward only to cause her to lose footing on her package of diapers, resulting in her falling face-first onto the floor. As she hit the ground, she could feel her stomach loosen, and her diaper suddenly grew hot and heavy. It only took everyone a moment to realize what had happened, and her face grew redder as she looked to see how the other console reacted.
When she looked up, WiiU-tan flashed back with a sympathetic look and knowing smile, fully understanding how Xbone-tan felt from her own experiences. As she turned her head around, she could see PS4-tan holding her own stomach and looking back at the seat of her diaper, obviously worrying about the inevitable messy state of her own diaper. Xbone-tan slowly stood up, trying not to make a scene as she became used to the new weight of her diaper, only to be greeted by 3ds-tan holding her hand over her own face.
“Wow, Xbone, I heard you were dumping frames, but I didn’t think it was as bad as WiiU and me.” Although not directly directed at her, WiiU-tan looked away and blushed.
“3DS!” Xbone-tan exclaimed, shaking with anger.
“Hey, it looks like you could use a change, too. I’d offer you one, but I don’t think you’re small enough for my size. Heck, you’re probably too big to even fit into WiiU’s diapers!” With that, she took off running.
Xbone-tan’s face turned bright red as a result of 3ds-tan bringing up her weight. “Get back here!” She yelled as she gave chase to 3ds-tan.
As the two of them ran off, PS4-tan entered the hallway and approached WiiU-tan. Realizing WiiU-tan was seeing her like this for the first time, PS4-tan blushed. “So how did you and 3ds know?”
Seeing how embarrassed PS4-tan was, WiiU-tan fell out of her own embarrassed state and smiled. “PC told us a while ago. He wanted us to help you and his sister come to terms with needing diapers, but it looks like you guys managed to do that yourselves.” WiiU held up her camera. “After we walked in on you two making up, 3ds thought this would be more fun.” WiiU-tan smiled coyly, “So do you want it?”
PS4-tan smiled. This wasn’t the first time this happened. She knew neither camera had film in it, and she knew that WiiU-tan knew this as well. 3ds wasn’t one to pull mean pranks like that. She also knew the smart thing to do would be to tell WiiU-tan to keep it and return to her room, after all, that is how she always handled immature matters like this.
Thinking it over, PS4-tan smiled defiantly, “You better hand it over!”
WiiU looked a bit surprised by PS4-tan’s reply and started to turn away from her. As she slowly looked away, PS4-tan worried she might have done something wrong. Suddenly, WiiU-tan jerked her head back and stuck her tongue out. She swiftly made it to the living room and hopped onto the couch, momentarily exposing her diaper. “Gotta catch me first!”
PS4-tan smiled. I guess WiiU wants to play as much as I do.
Taking a step forward, she could feel herself freeze. She could feel her diaper grow warmer as if to remind her that the her of yesterday was but a distant memory. For a moment, she wondered if this was really the right thing to do, but as she looked out, she could see the other console-tans.
For the first time in a long time, none of them were running anything intense. 3ds-tan was laughing while keeping her distance, and if Xbone-tan was any more red, she’d probably need to be serviced. Looking back into the living room, PS4-tan could see WiiU-tan looking back and smiling at her warmly. PS4-tan chuckled, thinking about how ridiculous she was about to look. Yet, for the first time, she understood why she was always jealous of WiiU-tan. You know, I think I will try it her way this time. She started towards the living room. “Get back here!” She was going to have some fun.
Across the quaint home, inhabited by the rambunctious console-tans, the door creaked open. Unaware of any of the console-tans, a green, well-defined, and masculine head peeked through the doorway. As he looked on, he could see the bizarre scene play out in front of him.
“You can’t keep this up forever, 3ds! So you better give me that or else!”
“Or else what Xbone!? You’re gonna tell your dad on me?”
3ds-tan was lying on her back, holding a camera in her outstretched hand; she was straining to keep possession of it. Xbone-tan lay on top of her, trying desperately to reach for it as 3ds-tan used her other arm to hold her back. He could see clearly that the two of them were in desperate need of a change based on the similar appearance of their diapers.
“Get back here WiiU! Don’t make me get serious!”
“What did you say, PS4? Sorry, couldn’t hear you over your lack of games!”
Looking into the living room, he was surprised to see PS4-tan and WiiU-tan hopping from couch to couch. WiiU-tan was holding a similar camera in her hand, and PS4-tan gave chase. As WiiU-tan landed, PS4-tan grabbed her dress, causing it to ride up, exposing her wet diaper. It was evident that the two of them would soon be in need of a change. However, they are far more occupied with the camera than their diapered state. WiiU-tan quickly spun around, broke free, and continued running on foot with PS4-tan in tow.
The door closed as the large, muscular man sighed. “Well, that isn’t exactly what I expected, but at least they are getting along…” He continued to stand there, lost in his thoughts, as he contemplated what he should do.
“Um… Mr. PC, are you sure this is the right place?” A timid voice asked, breaking PC’s concentration.
It was a small girl with her hair tied back. She was wearing a black shirt with a light gray jacket and a black skirt. In her arms was her heavy luggage, filled with clothing and her personal effects. As PC turned down to look at her, she quickly averted her gaze.
“Oh, sorry Switch-tan,” he replied apologetically. “It looks like they are in the middle of something, so we should probably come back in a bit.”
Switch-tan continued to look away as she took a step to the side. “Oh… Okay…” The young console replied, disappointed. A few moments passed before Switch-tan spoke again. “Mr. PC, do you think they will like me? I mean, you know with my umm…”
PC chuckled at how shy the new console-tan was being. The last time he saw someone this timid was back when he was bringing his own sister over to move in. “You don’t have anything to worry about. In fact, you’d be surprised just how much you all have in common.”
“Yeah, but they all sound a bit too serious and competitive…” Switch-tan replied, still worried, but feeling slightly better with PC’s assurance.
PC laughed at the irony of what Switch-tan had said, “Yeah, they are an excitable lot, but you know I wouldn’t have it any other way.” PC reached down and placed his hand on her shoulder. “What do you say we get your diaper changed, and grab some ice cream while they cool down?”
Switch-tan looked up in surprise and blushed. “How did you…” Switch-tan looked flustered as she realized it was probably obvious to anyone that she was a Nintendo console after all. “You know you don’t have to…” Switch-tan abruptly stopped. Suddenly, a look of confidence filled her face as she looked back up at PC. “Hmph! I am a fully functioning console! I can run my own library filled with my own exclusive hardcore games.” Reaching down, she grabbed what appeared to be a diaper bag with the Nintendo trademark symbol on it. “I can also handle my own maintenance, you know. That includes changing my own diapers!”
PC smiled; he could see there was a lot of spunk in the little diapered console-tan. Yeah, she will fit in just fine. Reaching over PC grabbed the diaper bag and pulled it out of Switch-tan's hands. “Come on, Switch, this one is on me.”
Switch-tan pouted definitely, then thought for a minute as she realized something. “Umm… are we still going for ice cream?”
PC rolled his eyes and smiled, “Of course, after that, we’ll get you settled in.” PC remembered that no matter how hard all the console-tans tried, deep down they never really grew up. Yep, she’ll do fine.
“Kay!” Switch-tan replied excitedly, as she followed PC for a much-needed change. Unbeknownst to her, she was going to be in for a lot of changes that day.
