If Snoy/Wahoo chinks and Xniggers can't design devices that use software and don't overheat, what's the point of getting their products?

Which console does that? I've never had it happen to me
I was talking from the perspective of anons parents
Reminder Ricardo Milos has threatened legal action against people who use his video without permission
OH NO NO NO
My PS4 sounds like a fucking rocketlauncher
I tried to return it but the pieces of trash at the shop pulled out some shady shit related to the garanty and now I have a coaster of 400 yuros
I'm literally never buying a console again

Based Dreamcast letting me skip tedium when I just want to complete side quests.
I've read too many horror stories about the fragility of the PS3 so now that I've hacked it I set it to let the fans run as fast as they want and I put the whole thing on top of a laptop cooler for good measure
You're gonna create a vortex baka
Well he's got a lot of internet to sue
>3ds battery blew up
Worth playing now? I just got a dreamcast recently my first go with one.
>cheaping out on the part that can destroy everything else
it's a shame it didn't fry everything else
It’s extremely easy to pirate games for it. Go wild.
My Xbox 360 was a fucking nightmare.
How/why does this happen
That's what I've been doing. Downloading and burning everything worth playing. I guess it's a "why not"
It’s because Nintendo cheaped out with the battery when the 3ds first came out so over time they start getting bigger, if you grab your old 3ds you might see a bump in the bottom
It’s easy to replace though, so if you have it don’t worry about it.
>Eject PS2 game
>Disc tray makes worrying grinding sound
Why are you playing games outside?
>HDMI port on ps3 dies
>have to use 3rd party component cable I had for the ps2
>whole screen blinks black every once in a while
I swear to god if this other port also dies aaaa
It was like a 400w PSU and I bought it for my old Windows XP system about 3 or 4 years ago, so of course it was cheap

This doesn't happen on consoles.

It's still going strong.
>playing TF2
>computer bluescreens out of nowhere
It got so cold in my house one winter that I couldn't turn my computer on until I warmed it up by blasting it with the space heater for half an hour. Fuck winter.
God of War on my PS4
The former. I didn't get my new PC build finished until like 2017
>tfw couldn't play dreamcast in the morning growing up because it was so fucking loud i was afraid it'd wake the house up
I had a similar story
>had ps2 slim when they were new
>laser eventually breaks, gets replaced
>new laser eventually on its last legs too
>friend borrows the console for a week
>leaves it on all day and it dies
>friend buys me one of the then new super light slims to make up for it
And that one's sitting right next to me a decade later, getting regular use. I think the laser's dead by now but now there's OPL.

This happened to me when i was playing my game and start feeling something hot and heard something pop
Imagine that happening to you. The pot slowly getting so hot that your feet and hands get burns whenever you accidentally touch it. The water getting so hot it becomes uncomfortable, then painful and eventually insufferable. I imagine the thing that kills you in a scenario like that is a heart attack from the pain.
wait till ya see this
>playing switch
>suddenly hear an high pitch sound
>search the room for it
>it's the switch fan spinning like crazy
>that shit is hot to the touch
Wait this can happen on a switch?
>Play dancing game
>Console overheats
Yeah I actually thought of that too while I was typing. That one's probably not fun either
>OG PS3s that became compact jet engines after a year of use
The sound of those fucking things was beyond reasonable. It was audible over my desk fan blowing in my face.
what the fuck goes inside your brain that your first instinct to dampen a towel, so that it can cool something off, would to be piss on it?
I think the worst is either that or scaphism, a method of torture/execution which involved sealing a person in a "boat" carved to fit their body (or a log) leaving their arms, legs and head exposed, then they get covered in honey and milk, and set out to rot in a swamp. The idea is that the person gets eaten to death by insects and rodents, very slowly.
>AC2 disc with no marks
>Fucked up near the end of the game
>Take to GameStop for trade in
>They accept it seeing no scratches
Still wish I could have finished that game.
