I have the NGC since its launch (05/03/2002 in France) and I have played with at about 800 hours without problem...
Oh no, I forget, the console bugged ONCE during a "loading", those due to a cleanless DVD!
...
For a year, my Wii bugged very more time and for a month my X360 even more!
So, NGC is reliable! Without doubts...
