Worst functioning console you've ever had to put up with?

[Pinyapplesuckas]

PS3 - loved it for playing movies from my flash drive...games would never play for me...and im more of a gamer now than i was back when i had a ps3..i didnt play online or own anything other than Madden.i bought like 3 years of Madden and none of them worked in my ps3

Disc Read Error PS2 tops my list.

All my other consoles were problem free/good(NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Dreamcast, OG Xbox, PS1, PS3, PS4). My 360 had to be sent in once too.

Nintendo cartridges

We had a 64 that fell or something. Had to wrap the power cord tight around it so the system wouldn't shut off. Sitting it at an angle to work right.

Yup...

Fun fact: I was a 360 stan prior to 2010. :ohmy1:

Definitely the NES and the 360. That RROD was so goddamn annoying and it happen to me when halo 3 dropped, I was livid brehs. Wrapping that shyt in a towel to overheat it and it would work for about 2 hours max, finally sent it in only to get one that had read disk errors

Only had to replace my ps2 once but that was years after it dropped, had got dmc3 and it stop reading. My n64 was a tank tho

My NES had the same problems as everyone else, blowing on cartridges and shyt, however, the fukking thing still works to this very day.

SNES still works like brand new. N64 been dropped a bunch of times and still powers through like its nothing, however, the analogue stick stopped working in one specific angle so I low key swapped it with my cousins friends joint.

Never had a problem with my ps1 or ps3, but the laser in my ps2 stopped working at some point but I think it was still useable as a DVD player, but I might be wrong it was so long ago.

my wii stopped working recently but only on some games, weird as hell, but its all good cause wii u backwards compatibility.

Xbox 360, I never had a console die on me before

 

[61 Corpses]

360 easily....On my second one. First one died cause of laser issues which i fixed and then the red light of death a few months after that. On my 8th or 9th controller cause them bytches always die out too

My original 360 RRoD on me about five times before I shipped it off.

Used that towel/overheating trick to get the most out of that Mass Effect tho

My PS3 was the worst. @ikbm can testify that we used to play 2k and it would freeze or give no sound. It was loud, slow, buggy and add to the fact that I couldn't watch my movies. The message system was awkward and it took forever to text. Nobody had a mic on COD. The graphics were bad. Really bad. 2k and FIFA looked choppy but looked beautiful on my 360. Thk God I sold that stupid console.

And no, those issues were popular

Worst gaming experience ever for me.

 

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

NES and ps2 easily

 

[MewTwo]

The original playstation and the fatty xbox 360 (RROD on me within an hour of purchase)
