My SNES, still works fine after 16 years without a single problem while my old playstation and xbox have just been shit in my ass for too long. And somobody owned the SNES before me so I don't even know how old it is.
What's the longest your console has ever worked for?

My big bulky caveman PS2 works great, so about ten years. Got it near PS2 launch.
My grandparents have a Sega Genesis that still works...

Well, my NES still works...w9496 said:
Lol, and my Xbox 360 has been working for 5 years, it was my friends before it was mine, he gave it to me.
I have an Atari that still works, but as I've owned almost every system put out I have to say that I have been impressed with the fact that they are well made...at least until I bought a PS3.
8 months later and I had to send it off to get repaired.

Original Gameboy from around 1989 still works. Top-loading and standard NES from 1985ish still works.
Unfortunately, my SNES broke
, but I think that's the only console I have that doesn't work anymore: My Genesis, PS1, PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, Nintendo 64, GBC, GBA etc. all still work as well.

My NES from when I was 8 still works today. I have it hooked up to a small tv in my bedroom for playing at night before bed.
Also, interesting note, my original launch 360 is still going, even though it sounds like a jet engine now.

Lovign the fact so many old Sega Genesis and SNES consoles are out there and still kicking!
16 bit represent!
So, I've got a SEGA Genesis, Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), N64, Xbox (Original Launch Big Black X-Brick), Xbox 360 (Orignal Launch White Brick-360) and a Wii (Original Launch Wii Sports edition). All these consoles are hooked up to a single 52" LCD TV, just because I can. With Surround Sound for the current Gen consoles. All of them work perfectly fine, except the 360, which sounds like a jet engine and has Red Ringed Of Death not once, not twice, but THREE FREAKING TIMES! Been fixed by microsoft and returned all three, under warranty all times.
The Genesis and SNES were scabbed off my Uncle because he went the PS route and ditched Nintendo. I was more than happy to do a weekends chores for him in return for the much loved old consoles. The N64 was bought of a family friend who was collecting all the consoles but was forced to move on short notice to another country with little storage space, so I'm not actually sure how old it is...
As for handhelds, still got my original Gameboy. Got it the day it came out, with Tetris and Mario Bros. Many long years were spent playing and replaying Pokemon Yellow on long roadtrips. My current save is at Cerulean City, mostly cause I'm the one doing all the driving these days!

My N64 still works great, and I've had it for over 10 years. My aunt's original NES that she gave to me works but I don't have any of the cords.
As far as Xbox's go, I gave my old Xbox to my now-ex girlfriend, so I don't know if that still works, and my latest is the Reach 360, so not very long.
