This was an interesting read. Ive definitely had systems fail on me in the past.
My PS2 that ive had for almost 10 years (Launch Model) had to be repaired because of the disk read error that plagued it. Then the lens started to give out, and I had to fix it myself. And recently, it finally kicked the bucket and i had to buy a new one.
My Sega Game Gear stopped playing sound (though everything else works just fine).
My First SNES fell apart, and I had to replace it.
Sometimes i feel like most game developers just want us to forget the past and move on.
