You’re still better off with a Wii…

The Xbox 360 is the most unreliable out of the 3 top consoles.

The Xbox 360 is the most unreliable out of the 3 top consoles.

It is general knowledge these days that Microsoft’s Xbox 360 console is one of the most unreliable consoles currently on the market. It’s made news headlines worldwide about the problem which causes the ‘Red Ring of Death’ turning the console into an expensive paperweight.

Now in light of this, aren’t you happy you bought a Wii? Yes, I would be too, it’s reassuring to know that I am not going to have the hassle of claiming off of a warranty in a few months’ time. It may also please you all to know that in a recent study the Xbox 360’s failure rate is on the decline. That makes it only nine times more unreliable than the Wii, and four times more unreliable than the PS3.

So to sum it all up in a quick blow, the study shows the Wii is the best of the three consoles to have sat next to your TV if you are after reliability. Also, helps to save the environment wouldn’t you say? So Nintendo are following with their tradition of making reliable hardware, I wonder how many of you still have a working Nintendo64 and NES? I know I sure do.

I have an original Gameboy that still works. Now that is durability. Also, on the odd occasion it doesn’t load a cartridge properly, just do the old “take it out, blow into the slot, slap it back in the Gameboy” and away you go. None of this wrapping stuff in towels BS.
