How much do you care?

[Teethpaste101]

I was just casually scanning threw my brain then i rememebred all the times i have in a way hurt my gaming items e.g. The gamboy i used to play with has been droped on concret so much times its not funny. my PS2 has fallen off the edge of the sidboard 2 times. My brother and i have been known in an act of rage to thro the controllers of the gamcube, PS2 and stuff.

So wat im asking is what damage have you people done to your gaming things? or mabye you've done no harm to them and i'm just a clumsy idiot!

 

[Livvers]

I'm overly careful about my gaming items, so nothing's ever really happened to them. I remember when I was little my brothers would throw the NES controller at the wall. There are actual dents in the wall fro it. Controllers never broke, btw =D

Playing smash on my brand new Wii....

I beat my friend, he gets mad, throws controller, forgets that it's on a cord.... I get pissed as my wii crashes to the ground and then I senselessly beat the life out of him :D

 

[Relean]

Oh, yes.

I've totally thrown my controllers with unspeakable rage.

That was in my PS2 days, though. When I got a GC, I tried to be carefull and not throw them at all, and the Wii/Nunchuck, well, I would never throw them.

 

[Teethpaste101]

I've still only got the ps2 and gamcube so i can throw them around still. Lucky i somtimes put them in a carpetted room.

I'm pretty careful with my gaming stuff, except where I'm sure I don't really need to be. I make sure to keep my disks in their cases, and such, but I'll toss a wiimote across the room and hear it thud into my desk drawer.

 

[Relean]

I'm way to carefull with my Wiimote and Wii game discs.

Also, I'm kind of paranoid about them because someone stole my Wii Sports disc.

 

[Crimson King]

I take care of my stuff. Basically all my consoles and games are mine until the break from wear. For example, ALL of my PS1 cds look like the day I bought them, not even a scratch on them.

I was forced to save money to buy my first console and since then I became protective of all my possessions from needless damage.

 

[Tonyman]

The most agressive action of myself to a console or part of it, is hitting the controller with my right palm, but that happened long ago, since then nothing else, but my bro has broken like 2 or 3 N64 controllers due to his rages.

I bet thats one of the main reasons to put a cord on the Wiimotes.

As for the console itself, well, not me but my friend threw his Wii accidentally due to a Game Cube controller, and now his Wii wont read most GC games :s, only a few GC games and i belive all Wii games.

Kind of the same with me.

I had to save up money for the Wii for almost a year, so I am overprotective of it.

 

[Mike Rounds]

I take care of my ****, but if I borrow someone else's stuff I con't give two ****s about it.

With the disck for the gamcube in specific smash melee i find it hard to keep intact (btw it still is) because its so hard to pull out on my version i don't have the pushing button so i have to pull it out with small force and it always bends up while the other half stays down so i always think its going to break in half its annoying i get it every time.

 

[BETA]

I actually broke a rental copy of Super Mario Sunshine once. Blockbuster is stupid about what cases they put things in. The disk would not pop out no matter how hard I pressed the middle in.

I also stepped on my roommate's PS2 controller and cracked one of the handles. It wouldn't work at all.

 

[Junpappy]

I broke my gameboy using some batteries that ended up leaking.

Then I stupidly put those same batteries in my brother's gameboy (I was like 6 at the time) and broke his gameboy too.

Actually, come to think of it, I've broken every type of gameboy my brother has owned (original, pocket, and color)

 

[Ryusiodo]

I've never broken any of my gaming stuff.I just don't get very angry. >_> People tell me that bottling up all this anger is going to come out one day...

 

[Teethpaste101]

Well its best take it out on the controller now rather than a human later on!

 

[Turbo Grafx-16]

I use to throw my Pokemon Blue Version against the wall in hopes that it would come up with more then a blank screen (It did). Aside from that I broke a GBPocket, a DS and a number of controllers, none of that was out of anger though. Oh, and I punched my GBA once because it deleted my Fire Emblem data (all 3 games had been beaten!).

 

[TheKing]

The most I've done is destroy 2 cube controllers over Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.. that game angered me so much.

My 3rd controller is still in good condition.. I've learned from my mistakes, and when I get angry, I turn off the console.

 

[Teethpaste101]

My parents would never by me a replacment controller if i broke one and they wouldn't let me pay for it myself either

 

[Blackshadow]

My first GBA broke when I was trying to catch Relicanth on Pokemon Ruby. I had been searching for so long and when I finally found one it died due to an untimely critical hit 0_o In rage, I head butted my screen, causing it to make a big black burn looking thing to appear in the middle of the screen and instantly cut out my game.

I bought a GBA SP, which my brother was playing on the exact same couch in which I had been playing on when I head butted my screen, and he screwed up on this Spongebob game. Ironically enough, he also head butted the screen in frustration, causing the exact same damage to my GBA SP as what I had done to my GBA before <_____<

 

[Crzy]

I take care of my ****, but if I borrow someone else's stuff I con't give two ****s about it.

Same with me, except I take care of someone else's stuff as if it were my own. Hell I'll even take care of movies I've used from my friends. Mostly because I'd expect them to be doing the same for my stuff.

As for damage, well nothing too serious that I've caused. The only thing I've ever done and regretted doing, was dropping my GC a couple of weeks after I bought it. Normally I would have shrugged that off, but I dropped it from a 62" high TV. And I'm BARELY seeing signs of damage as it won't read the discs at times, and it gets heated quite a bit. Still plays, so it's no sweat.

Now my friends and brothers on the other hand.....they've broken controllers, dropped our Wii from a TV stand because they were fighting for a GC controller which they yanked and caused the Wii to come crashing down. Joysticks broken for extensive use, cords ripped for carelessly leaving them on the floors, etc. That's all I can think of now.

 

[Fizzle_Boy]

.....anger management

 

[Phlemingo]

I don't take my anger on my beloved gaming possesions. Instead, I take it out on my cat.

 

[Barbeque]

Most of what happens to my game systems is accidental. I haven't broken anything because I was pissed off in a long time.

 

[ecuadorian smasher]

Well i just have dropped my ds 4 or 5 times and lost my stylus, aside from that some ****ing guy stole my gba with all my 300+ pokemon that i was planning to transfer to diamond.
