My consoles never broke, or at least is wasn't their fault, My DS lite was thrown by my sister in the fireplace, but even if it was damaged by the fire it still works nowdays...
My 3DS lived 4 years of constant falling but managed to survive until I decided to change it last year, but I'm shure it would have lived a lot more. My Wii/GC work perfectly, my GBASP is still functional tough I lost the charger.
The only console that broke in my family was my brother's PS2, it one fell because of it's bad placing and never read the games properly again...
