Poll: You Ever Have A Console Die On You?

my ps3 yellow lighted on me a few days ago and I dont have the money to repair it :( why are today's consoles built like crap?

this cant be life

PS3 got YLOD about a year ago. Ironic because it died before my 360, and thats still going.

Ive had 12 Xbox 360's die on me and 2 Kinects die on me :cry:

My Wii died once and my 360 died twice. PS3 is still fine for me though.

It is actually pretty easy to repair. I have repaired two in less than an hour. Just follow this instructions step by step http://www.youtube.com/user/gilksy1#p/u/1/U70SgRDVcBo

You can get the pdf with the instructions from there too.

Only system I have ever had die since the SNES (including handhelds) is the 360, but to be fair it came back to life somehow :P. It RROD'd after freezing all the time.

360 and my ps2 just recently:cry:

The only console I have ever owned that has died on me would be my NES that came out in 1985. I only needed to add a 72 pin connector and it was all fixed:P I never had any problems with the any other consoles though.

My xbox 360, ds, and psp

The only console I've ever had fail on me was a 60GB launch PS3. At the time it cost $200 CAD to get it fixed.

The only console that died I owned was the Atari 2600 and it may be caused by inserting a defective game cartridge. I never had problems with other consoles and handheld systems that died since then only problems with the Atari 5200 controllers and dirt problems on the NES that prevented me from playing games to where I have to use a cleaning kit.

The Day I got Casltevania Lords of Shadow.....PS3'S MOTHER BOARD DECIDED IT WAS A NICE DAY TO BURN!

My PS3 just died a about a week ago, my Wii broke, and the hinge on DS lite broke. I have just had bad luck this gen.

One NES and one 360. The NES is repairable, I just haven't gotten around to it.

My cousin had his Wii start scratching his disc, his 360 RROD, and tonight his used 60gb PS3 won't show video anymore. He's had tough luck this gen.

Nothing has died on me. I take care of my stuff :)SilverChimera

Nope, everything works. Even my C64 and Megadrive 2 worked before I erased them.

Nope. Most fickle console I had was an NES. It made me blow it any time I wanted to play.

I had a Gamecube break once, but that is all.

PS2, Dreamcast and 360 had died for me sadly.

Yup.. I had my PS1, PS2 and XBox 360 die on me. Only my Nintendo consoles have lasted forever without any problems.

Yes.

Also, I won a PS2 back in 2003 from my former employer. Brand new, Disc Read Error right out of the damned box. I bought another at Wal-Mart, switched the scannable serial number that shows from the bottom of the unit, through the box, and then returned it for my money back and a working PS2.

just recently my ps3 started acting up...it takes about 10 min of being on before itll read any ps3 game but itll play dvds right away..im not sure if this is signs of my lens going out which i cleaned or it just getting older(80launch) and slower idk ...then my friends 360 well he was letting me borrow it to play halo

My PlayStation, first PlayStation 2, and two Xbox 360s.

sadly its not safe to buy used xboxes half the time...people will buy a parts only 360 online then go buy a new one and switch the number or just the whole case then return it...ALOT of people do it the new slims are suppose to be harder to do though
