LightsideDarksider I know it's old, but apparently Greenpeace hates Nintendo. They scored them an 1.8 out of 10. http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/toxics/electronics/how-the-companies-line-up/ Quote: Take back and recycle their products responsibly once they become obsolete.
This is probably why. Even a NES is never obsolete. Hippies just don't understand.

Nintendium cannot be recycled.
It can only be used to cure cancer.

Have you ever tried destroying an old Nintendo system?
You have to really want to destroy for it to even crack.

Also I have seen old Nintendo systems turned into toasters, computers, alarm clocks, and fleshlights, among other things.

Shiny Gligar I remember watching this video of the durability of the NES cartridges. Which had pretty good durability if I remember. Nintendo is generally hailed as unbreakable.
Which is why I was so disappointed with the Wii. 6 months, srsly? neutral
It's half price now though, and I have a glass wall I can put it behind in my cabinet so it doesn't get smoke all up in it. I think I'm gonna get another.

I've had the same Wii since 2007 and it's been through all kinds of abuse. It's been knocked over by cats, gathering up dust, had water spilled on it, etc. It still works perfectly.

Except for the DS. Those ******** buttons always stop working. My R button on my green DS never worked and I didn't notice for the longest time because I never used it.
Literally, that button stopped working weeks after I got it, cause I tried soft resetting on Heart Gold.
I was surprised my Wii lasted this long. O: Five or four years is pretty good.
I dropped it out of my closet, twice. It still works for most games. Except Brawl, and MHTri. 3:

I'm a stoner and I have lived with at least two smokers my whole life.
It sucks though. My old Wii had a Domokun sticker on it that I kinda want for my new one. We don't have anywhere that sells cool video game stickers around here, just plushies and candies and s**t.
Someone should send me a cool sticker to put on my Wii. sad
EDIT: @Haru: Argh I know! I can't play PH nearly as well without a functional L key. I am absolutely tumors!
