Was built like a fucking tank, except for the control stick. Seriously, a magazine torture-tested all first- and third-party controllers of the fifth generation, including pouring pop on them, slap-shotting them with a hockey stick, and swinging them around by their cords and the N64 fared the best out of all of them, functioning perfectly afterwards except for a busted stick. I don't think the PS1 or Saturn controllers even worked afterwards, if memory serves.
It was an oddly designed and uncomfortable piece of shit.

What was wrong with this one? These had no systemic issues that I'm aware of.

The only thing that the Wiimotes initially suffered from was weak wrist-straps that had a tendency to snap if people put enough force into them, which Nintendo quickly corrected.
Waggly piece of shit.

Pretty much the only part of your post I agree with, given the soldering in them was shit and had a tendency to give way and screw up one or both screens.
I didn't say it was built poorly, I said they made some questionable choices. You seem fantastically buttmad about it for some reason.

What's wrong with either of these? Again, no systemic issues that I'm aware of.
I hate touch screens, which makes them pieces of shit. They were also oddly designed and uncomfortable.

The only crap part about the original GBA was the lack of a backlight, which was a design flaw, not a durability issue. I have two of these, one of which I acquired used, and they both still work fine to this day.
So, you agree. Questionable.
