My PS1 decided to get much worse at reading discs over the time. My Wii made really loud noises and couldn't read most games anymore. Maybe because it fell down to the floor a couple of times. After a repair all was nice again.
A few times I have feared for the life of my Wii when it refused to turn on after a power outage, but so far I've been lucky with all my consoles. I once sold a Sega Master System to my brother and it broke on him not long after when something sparked while he was connecting it to the TV, but I think it was his garbage TV that fried it (although he blamed my Master System of course).
I traded a Gamecube for another Gamecube once because my reset button got jammed.
My DS Lite was my only console that truly broke apart completley. Luckily, it broke only couple weeks before I got my 3DS at launch. (Also, my GBA SP from 2003 still works perfectly fine. I got my DS Lite back in December 2007.)
Yeah my PS3 broke. Glitches out online, game freezes, and now it won't take/eject games. Piece of crap.
Same here. All these problems. This had happened to a friend too - the lens went nuts. He did use it a lot more than me though, especially for movies (which I don't understand why when everything is available online but...) which is the biggest reason why you should not use discs on consoles which are not games... waste of laser.
I had to replace my NES when it broke(it should have been a top loader like the Genesis). And the PSX melted after I finally found a game for it that I wanted to play for longer than two hours. I guess Sony never planned on anyone playing the PSX for long periods of time. Looking at the PSX library you can't really blame them.
No actually none of my Consoles have ever broken. The closest to a broken Console was my original DS which i never calibrated which came to the point that i could never use the touch screen but it still worked with the buttons, so it wasn't broken at all.
I have two broken SNES and one broken Dreamcast, I don't know what's wrong with the Dreamcast, but the SNES got fryed during a thunderstorm...
But my everlasting NES still works, even after spilling cough medicine over it while playing Mega Man 3 back in the early ninties. The game glitched but u could still play it, which was very funny. I even finished the stage I was playing and beat Gemini Man. ^^ After letting the NES dry for an hour everything worked fine again.
