PsychoWolfX posted...I sold most of my NES, SNES and most of the games to a friend one summer and spent the money on Pokemon cards and junk food.
Getting Majora's Mask for Christmas and not having to wait for like a month for stores to get expansion packs back in stock.
2 stolen PS2's
My first wii and 360 breaking
Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction, which I was very addicted to for the better part of a decade, degradeing into a bot infested mess.
I would have like to continue living without reading that first sentence. Just horrifying..
I posted mine on the first page but I'm gonna post another one but it was my brother, not myself. He didn't even have his original playstation for a year and he bought this crappy 3rd party controller, I can't even remember what brand it was but something in the back of my mind is screaming "Mad Catz". He got it home, unwrapped it, plugged it in, turned on his PSX and realized the controller wasn't working. Odd. He then realized that the second port was working with his old controller and put his new controller into that port and it wasn't working in that one either. Maybe my controllers defective he thinks..? Nope. He then plugged in his standard controller into port 1 and then 2 and realized both of his controller ports were now completely FRIED and his Playstation was rendered completely useless. This was back in the day too, this thing wasn't cheap at the time especially for us being 14 or 15 years old and he paid for it with his OWN money too so it's really heartbreaking when crap like that happens. He saved all his birthday and christmas money to get this thing with money he got from shovelling driveways in the winter.
Called up the company and complained and they basically told us that there was no way we could prove that it was their product that fried our Playstation and offered ZERO compensation. So Sorry. Even though it clearly was. Luckly my mom ended up buying him another Playstation because she felt so bad for him.
It was cool though, we always had one of the new systems between the two of us. I'd have the Genesis and he'd get the SNES. I'd get the N64 and he'd get the PSX and so forth. Worked out well lol
