Nintendo systems have far and away the best quality ratings.


their systems are amazing. my gameboy still works! but so does my PS1, i would say sony systems arent far behind. 


My SNES still works great, i wouldn't want to count the miles on that thing.  Knock on wood, none of my systems have ever failed, and that includes 4 Nintendos, 2 XBoxes and 3 Playstations.  Statistically speaking, however, I guess market research for the current gen had Wii fail rates at less than 5% while PS3 was at around 10%.  XB360 was at a dismal 20% during RROD, but after that was fixed it went down to a more respectible and PS3-like 10%.  Some anylists point to Nintendo using older, more proven tech in their systems, but some of their systems have been more state-of-the-art than Wii was.  Who knows, but even the GC had rock-solid reliability with fail rates less than half of competitors.


i agree, they always make reliable systems whether they were technicially week systems like the Wii or WiiU or strong ones like GC and n64. also didnt the 360 have a 30%+ failure rate?
