Oddly enough, my NES is the only console which has ever broken

Age stuff - it's basically dead. I would need to get one of those pin connector things for it to work.
SNES was a gift from the cousins after I already had a Playstation because they couldn't sell it. Still worked, probably still does for all I know.
Playstation was going strong when my parents scrapped it. Closest that came to breaking was a Madcatz memory card being zapped by (I kid you not) a static shock jumping from the TV to my foot out of my hand, into one of the screws on my controller, down the cable, and messing something there. But everything else worked(s) fine.
PS2 might be starting to get EOL here - I rarely get some sort of error, but it always resolves itself.
Gamecube worked like a champ and was still going strong when I sold it.
Wii and 360 I've had nil issues with.
Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, DS Phat, and DS Lite have all worked perfectly. Battery cover on the advance broke, but that's it.

Microsoft - Good with software but horrible with hardware

I'm a 1990s Nintendo kid. I don't understand consoles breaking. *NM*

I have to agree, you could drop a NES off of the roof and it'd still work *NM*

Same thing with Gameboys. My old Gameboy pocket has fallen down the stairs etc, for countless times

So long as you blew into it and breathed on the cartridge connection...

My n64 still works though I have to wiggle the wire for like 5 minutes before it displays picture.

The concept of 'colours' started confusing my SNES about a decade back.

The concept of 'colours' confuses me too. Maybe you should have spelt it properly.

Why should I take your advice on the matter? You are by your own admission confused

Never had a console break, but they've all been Nintendo. NES to Wii, skipped GBA & 'Cube.
