eh, i guess...its just, before this gen, i think i had some faulty PS1's die on me, that's it. this time, both my 360 & PS3 died, and my wii was troubled...i get that they're a great deal more complicated than my classic machines but at least those were reliable, this shit having a series of expiration dates feels crappily made, especially for the premium price.
Whens the last time your PS1 (and other consoles) got hot though? Generally the hotter electronics get the less life they will have. That is not a guarantee by any means, but heat kills electronics over time, whether it be solder or otherwise.
