Eh? Ehhh? Ever wanted to take your gaming console and throw it against the wall?
Well, on a kiddie gameshow of sorts (Spanish or something) the top three consoles were put to the ultimate test: Will it still function after you smash it beyond any reasonable level of tolerance?






That's right. You know darn well which one won. The guy who threw it wasn't kidding either. Daaang.

Ooh, backup evidence!

Rock on, my favorite system! I'm not going to give it away, you'll know when you watch it.


Aaahaha!

These guys are great. They smashed through the entire dying generation of consoles, and I've seen at least one from the new gen., the 360.
It's fun to watch.

Sweet. Same thing happens to the PS2. Different people, though. These guys just wanted smash it, you know?

This one has got to be the best Gamecube-smashing video. Fire!!

Goood! You discovered my favorite console!
I'd take a broken, smashed-up, melted, hurled, drowned Gamecube over any other current or past console.

I dunno, I think the fire was the best part of the whole thing. It was very... aesthetic. Pleasing to the soul.

There may be some deep message in that. All that is aesthetic will bring pain inside of ourselves.
Beauty is pain, the two are part of one balanced whole?

Nah. It just looked purty.

Ahhh, Rick. What a horrible choice of words.
Just FYI, "banged up" is NOT a synonym for "smashed up" in any way.

Yeah, the Xbox was like a brick. It still went out without much of a fight, but it seemed pretty solid. Too bad about the functionality.

GAMECUBE ROCKS

Spooky. Would have had more of an effect on June 6th.

Gamecube rocks so very very hard!

Lucasarts thinks so too.

How could it "work even better than before"? It only has on function and given that it does that theres not much room for it to improve.

lol gratz on -2531424 posts! im pretty sure thats sumthing special. and with the whole 'strongest consoles,' it seems that the newer things r getting, the weaker they r. dont we all remeber our old super nintendos. they were as hard as a rock and could take a tone of punishment. and like a psp or ds i can snap with my own hands. SMALLER IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER! good to get that out of me.. :P

Heheh your right there moose. My sister's friend got pissed at my megadrive after she kept losing on some level or another and threw it out a first floor window! It still works to this day, although like all megadrives the power input is fecked <_<

Apparently the DSLite is quite sturdy, but I hear the PSP just shatters into a bizillion pieces if dropped on concrete ... if you think im testing that out with mine your having a giraffe.

I think theres a purposeful tactic to make things break easier. Except Nintendo, who depsite making crappy consoles (/waits for casey's head to explode/) do tend to make em sturdy little blighters.

My PC has never been the same since i dropped half a pint of Bacardi and Coke over it...

Don't post here ever again.
