Has anyone ever broken a video game console here?

I broke my N64 a while back, don't know how. It just stopped loading files.
Then my first ds went dead, traded it in for a lite a week later.
Messed up a computer pretty bad.
My ps3 got run over by a truck, don't ask.

There's a story behind this psp. It went with me to pigeon forge, got run over by three go-karts at 50mph, fell 10 feet off the track, not a scratch.

It fell from a 3 story building onto concrete. Not a scratch.

It went home with my cousin, needed a new joystick.

And I leave it on a shelf in a hardcase for a month, and look at this.

Not to mention it was the special edition crisis core psp. >_<

Who else has bad luck?
 
I broke the R button on my original DS.
My brother poured bubble soap down my GBA.
My GCN stopped working for a while but I got it fixed.
My Wii's disc reader broke a year ago, so I sent it in to Nintendo to get it fixed.
 
My Wii's laser reader thing got broken, so I had to fix that.
My PS2 stopped reading discs, but I never play it so I didn't send it in for repairs.
My gamecube will periodically shut off for no reason.
My brother dropped my GBA out of the car, so it doesn't have any sound.
My 360 randomly shut itself off last night. I did what the support website said to do, and it's working again.

Strangely enough, out of all my systems, my DS phat has taken the most abuse, but it's the only one that hasn't had an issue with something. I've thrown it at walls, dropped it onto concrete, dropped it out of a car window going 15 MPH, and ran it over with my bike. That thing is durable as heck. 8D
 
Crushed my DS phat.
Both N64 barely works.
Wii died unable to read disks.
GCN died unable to read disks.
360 got 1 red ring I don't know why but it's all good now it fixed it's self.
 
I've never broken any electronic devices, besides getting a BSoD on 2 computers, but I've fixed that and it wasn't really my fault in the first place ;P
 
i havent just broke it, i lost my brothers Red DS lite! at the end of summer last year.
 
Well, once I accidentally tripped over a wire connected to my friends PS2...
I left the house soon after that. ;P
 
I broke my L and R buttons on my gameboy advance, and the top screen of my DS (The original one) fell off.
 
I once broke my original DS's upper screen, after I outburst my anger while trying to complete Mario Kart DS. I own another original DS, but the wireless function is no longer working.

My DS Lite had its upper screen with red tint border. I got my replacement of DS Lite, and its hinge's cracked but still functional.

Also, my Wii stopped to read disc properly. It's now fixed.
 
My DS's R button sucks.

...That's about it :S Video games on the other hand...

I've lost Super Mario 64 DS, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: March of the Minis, My bro and I scratched a Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 disc.
 
Game Boy Advance (it was in my bookbag when someone pushed me down and the screen broke) and original Nintendo DS (L and R buttons stopped working), that's all. I'm surprised my GameCube never broke, considering how much my little brother beat it up. My Wii has been through quite a bit and survived, too. Nothing like being kicked and thrown down the stairs like my GameCube, but still. XD
 
Almost every nintendo system ive had has broke, wii stopped reading discs once, you had to hit the eject button a bunch of times to get it working at one point, and i had a melted graphics chip another time. original ds' r button stopped working, and my gamecube stopped reading discs. never had an issue with n64 though.

Contradiction much?

How many Nintendo systems have you owned? I'm guessing you've had a few Game Boys, and you didn't mention anything about them except that "the screens scratch too easily". Scratching isn't breaking. If it still functions, it's not broken.
