I Bought a $500 Xbox 360... GONE WRONG 😭

Man, it's always something with these Xbox 360 consoles - and this might be the craziest one yet! Let me know what you think about all of the consoles in this video...

This has to be the worst combo of consoles I've come across in quite a while 😭

The profile names on the red xbox 360 are models of a car. Mitsubishi Evolution (Evo) 9th generation, GSR is the trim level. FQ400 is once again an Evolution model, 9th generation, JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) Evolution 10th generation. That's for the first three profiles

Hey Jacob, don’t forget there’s some of them capacitors under the gpu heat sink, they may or may not be popped but when you replace the thermal paste check under the gpu heat sink. Also a tip for replacing those capacitors, either get low melt solder or preheat the board cause those caps aren’t easy to replace with just a soldering iron and solder imo.

I think you hit the nail on the head. The resell value for Wiis has been so low for so many years now that a lot of consoles get passed around from owner to owner and being super cheap it's not really that unusual for someone to buy one for 20 bucks off a friend or get given one by a family member, they fire it up and play with it once then forget about it. I know for sure I've bought old consoles and done exactly that. And also my family has been given things like 3Ds from cousins that they didn't use.

Those bunch of letters are car names from the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution family

About the Wii disc drives. You could salvage parts off some of the broken ones and use them to fix up any that are not running smoothly.

Man your quality has gotten much more improved in the past years!

EVO9GSR is referencing the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 9 GSR, and I think FQ400EBIX is referncing the Lancer Evo X FQ400

My very first experience with a 360 was with a friend who got one a day or two ahead of launch because he won a sweepstakes. It caught fire before launch day. Sufficed to say I waitied for the slim before I bought one.

This dashboard is actual kinect dash. I started to have xbox 360 from Jasper revision, was on NXE and strongly remember day when I bought kinect with adapter and had to update to this dashboard in order to use kinect. It may not be the first kinect one by version numbers but definitely the first one in terms of design which had support of Kinect.

With all those popped caps, I wonder if that first XBox console got hit with lightening or some such. Surprised that thing even booted up and able to run a game!

[OrangeDied]

this happened to a chromebook at my school once, entire building was evacuated lmao

[DumbCrumbFR]

Just realized the title says “gone wrong” 🥶

Note to self: don't trust Goodwill

[Tropixify]

your luck with xbox 360s and ps3s in this video is the equivalent to my luck finding girls

[digipimp]

Ahh the ol' 0102 error on the 360. Brings back memories of when I used to reflow these as a service. Of course it only lasted a few months at most, so yeah not worth even fixing it.

Those caps have seen better days! 😂 and magic smoke in one video! Damn...

[MichaelJimenez]

I’m super shocked you received that red Jasper board 360 with Sanyo caps manufactured in 2009. They are known for failing, I’ve seen so many 360’s with those caps fail prematurely but only seen them on 2008 models. Had a Jasper arcade on blades with them with the same issue minus the smoking.
