Yeah, I have to say I think a console with good build quality rarely or never needs serviced. I've heard game store owners talk about how hard the front loader is to sell, and how many people bring them back because they're frustration with it's lack of proper operation, they think it's broken. If it was built well, it wouldn't have that problem. People shouldn't have to know anything about pin connectors, they should stick a game in and it should work, just like a 2600, or a Genesis, or a SNES. Not saying those consoles work flawlessly every time, but compared to the NES front loader, it sure seems like it.
