The Nintendo World Store in NYC has an original Game Boy that was found in a soldier's bunker during the Persian Gulf war. The casing is all melted, but the circuitry still works.

I'd like to think the reason Genesis games are so cheap is because of Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection.  :o

Years and years of abuse before I picked it up before they yard saled it. Still worked at the time, but eventually kicked the bucket on its own after pulling it out of the closet to test. Now days, you cant even play your consoles without them breaking. And thats without ever moving it from where it was placed the day it came out of the box.

3 words for ya; No Moving Parts.

The only cartridge console that craps out all the time is the only one with a moving part, the NES toaster :/
