I'm sure you all have done it once. you may not feel too ashamed. you may have actually got away with it. some of you though, may be ruined by poor quality, and shoddy craftsmanship.
You may or may not have guessed what I'm talking about. I better get on with it before I lose the Point myself.
Third Party Peripherals.
memory cards. steering wheels. controllers. wires of any sort. the like.
Memory cards. always so much cheaper, but in the unfortunate case of Nintendo boffs, the third party versions are almost guaranteed glitchy. very many people claim to have lost data on their SR free gift mem card. so why do people do it? do you buy a faulty lifejacket because its cheap? No, you would not. would you buy 50-50 chance memory card because its cheap? no, you wouldn’t. some of you may have been unfortunate enough to have received one with your Gamecube fire pack. then you should save up those reddies as soon as possible and send away for a free card, and back up your files to that as well, because It will suck mightily If you lose thy data.
controllers. just as important. the third party ones are acceptable, but why? why not shed out that extra tenner for a quality one? it's got to last the rest of your consoles life, so there's no point in buying one who's buttons will stick and joystick will snap. the best gaming experiences could be spoiled by faulty controllers. and frantic button bashing with mates, the titles like Mario party, and super smash bros melee, they will be no fun with unresponsive buttons and broken shoulder buttons.
game especially. you should never buy their merchandise. stick to buying their games, but for the sake of gaming, stay away from their shoddy, unreliable crap they sell as Peripherals.
so, in future, whether its Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo, always, always buy official.
