Of course, that was only their first console, and companies build up experience overtime...... Or I guess you'd think that's the way it'd happen...

The only problem I've had with my Gamecube is one time when Metroid (and only Metroid) would mess up (I can't remember for sure, I think it basically said the game couldn't be read? Or the game was removed or something)... And it only happened on a specific save slot... So I dunno what was up with that...

My PS2 on the other hand did develop one of the problems everyone talks about (Won't read CD-based things... Music CDs, PS1 games, or the few PS2 games made on CDs)... Although more people complained about problems with PS1, and I never had any problems with mine... Guess I just got lucky like Jonbo with his NES
