I do maintenance on my SEGA Genesis, and Dreamcast Systems, but, and game controllers... but... going inside the PS3? Nah, I don't think I'm ready for that. At least I can say nothing has ever broken while taking it apart I soldered the PS2's vibration back to the controller, so, it works now too... If it ever goes out of warranty (not sure if it has one) I may try if I have another PS3 or a backwards compatible PS(X) in the future.
