First the power went out and Sony had to fix it. Now the video output port is broken.

Did they make this thing as crap as humanly possible

I've owned this piece of shit for 14 months and it has already broken twice.

They're claiming I need to pay $150 to have it repaired this time. Hey Sony, fuck you. I'm just gonna stick with my Switch, then. This PS4 Pro was a terrible purchase anyway. Thing ran as hot as satan's anus and as loud as a freight train anyway.

If you don't mind soldering, there are instructional videos on replacing the HDMI port. It's widespread enough that some people did tutorials on YouTube.

On the bright side, I play my Switch far more often and as far as I'm concerned is the better console

There may be hope. Apparently the Pro is notorious for having its HDCP fucked up by the PSVR passthrough. Thing is, even when I directly connect the system to the TV and turn on Safe Mode, there's no picture, but the TV does recognize that a signal is coming through. Says "mode not supported"

Turns out GameStop accepts consoles as long as they power on. Gave me $220 for my Pro. Got an X1X because I'm sure as hell not buying another PS4 after having it break twice in one year

Damn... So you sold them a broken console, and then you bought an overly expensive brick that has no games. This is not a good day for you.

Wow. I still have never had a console break down on me, and I've owned them all and played them frequently (all consoles since the Dreamcast).

When or if a console does break down on me, it will be a SURREAL event.

I also never experienced an HD failure on any of my computers despite having them on 24/7. My current one is from 2012 (GPU is upgraded) and has been turned on ever since.

Lucky. I've had one PS1 stop reading discs, two PS2s stop reading discs, a PS3 that got graphical artifacting, then the repaired one also got that. My launch PS4 had bad USB ports, then the repaired one wouldn't boot after it crashed playing GTAV. My Switch dock also broke and had to send it in for repairs a week after I got it.

My first switch actually bricked a few days after I played it for the first time. Tried to turn it on and it just gave me the flashing green light of death. I suppose I should be happy it happened so quick because I just took it back to walmart and exchanged it for a new one

Xbox 360 is the only other console that got fucked

On the plus side they let me keep the charging cord so I can use it in handheld while the dock was out, and then returned the unit with another charging cord. Turnaround time was about 7 days too which isn't bad.
