22years!
Even Bang & Olufsen don't support their equipment past 20 years.
Yeah, they deserve a medal for that. My NES has been broken for years, I would have got it fixed if I'd have known.Quote:

i never realised that cartridge based consoles could go wrong though... suppose ageing capacitors could be the main problem
Tarnish/corrosion of the connector is a big problem. Also the loading mechanism for the NES has a habit of breaking. Remember, thats the one you slide the cart in, then push the spring loaded holder town to engadge :)
This is only in Japan. The rest of the world had NES support dropped in 2002 IIRC.
