Has Anyone's Nintendo System Ever Broken Down?

My first wii was working fine, but i was one of those unlucky ppl that had a defective sensor bar. it died on me after only having the wii for a week.

Besides that i didnt really have any nintendo console/handhelds break down, but i had minor things that bothered me. I just hated the cartridge era where i had to blow on it or clean it with cotton swab to try to get the games working. i also hated how that silver fluid kept gushing out of the double AA batteries when playing on my gameboy(original gameboy) time to time.

My Gamecube broke, nothing ever happened to my 360. These problems are exaggerated, many people make them up just to make Microsoft look bad.Israfel856

Please stop with the damage control. If it wasn't a problem MS would not have extended the warranty at a cost of $1 billion. It's ok, yes, the 360 has some problems.....breathe in....and breathe out...

My GC malfunctioned once...it's ability to read discs got screwed up somehow, so I sent it in for repairs and got it(the same one) back good as new. Other than that one time, none of my Nintendo consoles have had any problems.

Damage control? I pretty much hate Microsoft, I'm just being realistic. Fact of the matter is Sony/Ninty fans have made these stories up before.

I know someone who threw a gamecube in anger while playing smash. The handle is rather condusive to tossing.

The thing works fine though.

Same thing happened to mine, but I just got a new one because the repairs would have cost as much. Plus, Platnium beats Purple!

How could they break down? They don't pack enough heat...TheDuffman26

N64?

No, they all work fine.

Even my NES

When I had a Wii (before I returned it) it frequently freezed. That's about it. Nintendo makes solid hardware.

EDIT: Almost forgot, my SNES's AC Adapter input broke off back in the day--no biggie, though.

My gameboy color wnet through an entire wash cycle in the washing machine.

My dad took it out and put it in the food dehydrator.

It works as well as the day i got it.
