My PS2 just wouldn't read any discs anymore until we got it professionally cleaned. ::)

Pelican anything. Thread over. :|

Seriously, they suck that bad. Normally, the worst you get with 3rd party accessories is it not working out of the box. With Pelican, it can do any or all of the following:
1. Not work out of the box
2. Short-circuit your game system
3. Make your system overheat
4. Render the system unusable

Meh, I'm glad that I've only had 1&2 happen to me, but I've seen all four happen to somebody else all with one use of the same accessory...

My toe nail, came off like that.

For real; My first cell phone... 2 days.... >:(

Insane Asylum

The 360.  Piece of poop barely lasted 3 months.
Feast on my justice.

I have some 3rd party GCN controller that I use just because it has a fan in it and is very ergonomic. ;D

The only thing I've had happen with Mad Catz is memory loss when I left a gamecube memory card in my mother's car for a week (during summer in Florida).
I've gotten a Pelican GBA link cable, my GBA immediately turned off from being short-circuited as soon as I connected it. Same thing with a GBA-GCN cord, except it made both the Gamecube and the GBA turn off and the cord got pretty hot. I've seen somebody use a rechargeable Pelican battery pack for the GBA and his system got fried the second that he turned it on.

Those stupid Madcatz Game Cube/Nintendo 64 Controllers.   :robotindifferent:

Sony CD burner.
It worked for 2 months, ate a CD, and died.
Worst $70 ever spent.
