My launch PS3 still works as well, just behaved weird when i launched FIFA 13 the first time, but other than that, runs like a charm for 8 years...
I doubt that's true and here's why. I was anticipating the release of the PSP and purchased one at launch. For the next 6 months, I followed PSP news religiously. The only complaint about the system was the square button. The way it was designed, if you abused it, it could stay depressed. It was called the sticky square button. Only happened to a handful of people. Everyone else was just fine, even though we all had the exact same system. Even after 8 years, that button has not been a problem for me.
