What is the worst thing that you have either done or have had happend to any game system?

I shot my friends PS2 with a nail, after that it still worked.

My N64 fell over quite a lot...that's what happens when you get 4 people and 4 controllers all tangled up. It still works though...so I can't complain.

Well, I dropped my GBA about 5 feet onto a concrete floor once. the batteries flew about 4 feet, but the GBA still works perfect. Nice and solid, just the way I like it.

My brother yanked the PS2 controller, and the PS2 went flying off the stand that it was on. The disk tray was jammed, but I fixed it, and it is still running fine today.

Worst thing done to a game system? I'm completely anal about the care of my systems--so there isn't anything that goes by my nose without stopping. I think the worst was the time we were driving up to Whistler and a bit of Coke from McD's almost seeped through the back vent of the Gamecube, which I keep on my lap at all times (no, really!), but I couldn't tell for sure. But, yeah... I freaked out and cleaned it up immediatly. Then my brother vomitted. That was gross. Anyways we got to the top and it played fine. A little Bloody Roar'll fix anything.

Yeah... and that same brother was into BeyBlades a little while ago. His goddamn beyblade took 5 scratches to the Gamecube: one near the jewel, two under the left vent, a nick out of the corner, and one under memory card slot A. His beyblade even took a big nick out of the left vent of my Xbox. I still haven't given him what he deserves for it, either.. after all the times I told him to screw off and never beyblade near the consoles again. Veediot.

You say you take such good care of your consoles, then why the hell would you be eating McDonalds right over your GCN?

Well, I had my cube resting on a stereo that was 12 inches high. Somehow the controller got yanked and it fell onto nice hard tile. Made the biggest crack sound and I was freaking out cuz I had bought it 2 days earlier. So ya, that's the worst i've done.

during the first few years I had my gameboy, I put a sticker on it.

When i took it off after I think i used nail polish to remove residue and as a result some of the words got blury or smuge.


can't think of any more recent stuff at moment.
