they may make slow hardware but like every one of their consoles last forever. I think my n64 was like nokia level murder proof, i remember a buddy powerbombing his while we were playing wrestling and it didnt even hiccup.

I used my DSi so much the battery nearly exploded. Swelled so much it broke the rear panel... yet, I bet if I get a new battery it'll fire right back up.

I bet it will as long as the screen ain't cracked. I have a gba sp(the Flippy boy) that the battery exploded on and I just used it as an excuse to do an aftermarket case and the upgraded screen with more pixels.
