November 2015 and it's been on, continuously, every day, 24/7 since then, barring a power outage two or three times. I would love to see Xbox 360 stand up to that abuse, but the solder would probably cause a fire and burn the disc drive.

Side note, I had a 2011 Xbox 360 red ring in a month doing that.

November 2015 for 180 € new but open box

Spent 3 weeks as a memeverse/youtube machine as the game I bought it for (X) would be released in December! :)

Turned on my first Wii U on January 26th 2017. I got it well after all the hacks and the Brazilian method came out. Bought my second Wii U about a week after that. Love them both. Will keep it and play it well into the future. Will get a switch after it's hacked and they are putting together "best games" lists. No regrets. People may say that the Wii U is dead but in that case I'll be at all the graveyards trying to score cheap consoles!

I bought mine November 2016. I was looking for one because it had quite a few games I wanted to play and managed to luck out. Found a basic 8gb one on ebay that came with like 20 games, which was all the games I wanted minus 4. As well as a 3ds xl with like 7 games, a sky3ds, ds flashcard, 4 amiibo, 2 wii motes, a classic controller and some accessories for like $240. It would have been cheaper but the seller was living in Korea and the EMS postage cost almost $60. I have no regrets.:yayu:

I bought it when the price dropped below 200€ for some Skylanders bundle online, because the shop wanted to get rid of their stock.
I modded it and used Loadiine to play Pikmin 3 back then.
Nowadays i mostly play Gamecube and Wii titles on it.

    @RedColoredStars, but what is the game about?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, Never heard of it. Any good?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    You control a kitten. You fall out the window and have to make your way back home. Solve some light puzzles, do cat things like knock stuff over and steal things, trip people up when theyre walking, pounce on birds, complete goals/tasks etc. in the process of getting back to your home.

    @RedColoredStars, I'm a cat person so this game must be for me. :D
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @RedColoredStars, sounds kinda neat
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @SylverReZ It's short but adorable imo. Im a HUGE cat lover.Can be completed in a couple of hours if just going for the main goals. But can be stretched out a good deal by exploring and doing everything there is to do and see.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    So a man goes to the doctor because his boner wont go down. As he is laying in the hospital bed, with his thing propped up in the air, a fly is flying around and landing on the tip and bothering him, so he calls in the nurse. The nurse comes in, swats at the fly but can't quite reach it, so she climbs his boner to get better aim. After a few tries of swatting and sliding back down, she says sorry I cant get it. He says keep going, a few more tries, and I can shoot the fly down.
