okay since we all agree this business about moving the console is stupid let's move on to something possibly more substantial

You can't get the RROD anymore because the red leds were removed from the ring, but a red light will ligt up in the middle of the power button logo thing when a critical hardware error happens, and that is red.

So it's just a RLOD and not a RROD.

People are calling it the Red Eye of Death.

Destructoid is saying that the models will shut down to prevent RROD or REOD or whatever. Basically, if it detects that it's not getting enough ventilation, it'll give you a warning before shutting down & then flashing a few times. Once the flashing is done, you can turn it on again. The idea is it'll shut down before overheating & suffering from internal damage.

And is it magically going to save my game before it does this?


In before no.

that's where the warning comes in

Though I don't suppose a sleep function would be out of the question.

the warning would be a functional solution if you could save games at any time

but i guess a lot of games will gain a "mad dash for the nearest save point" mode eh

Problem with that solution being that well, you know how most games state "DO NOT TURN THE POWER OFF WHILE SAVING"?

What happens if your console flashes to give you a warning, you hit "SAVE" and then the console shuts off, thereby wiping out ALL your save data. Good idea, poor execution.

Hence the problem. Needs Pokemon Save method (where there's 3 actual saves, and they rotate - if the latest is corrupt they simply load previous - so you only lose a little) to be a good solution.

I actually just got one of these yesterday, that dude HAD to have done something to it to make it overheat. The slim has vents on four of the six sides, and after running for several hours straight, was cooler than a PS3 slim running for the equal amount of time.

The whole no buttons on the front is weird as it's a giant touch panel that fucking beeps at you. It's not really a flaw, and I'll get over it though.

The controller is where my beef is at. It's made of a cheaper and THINNER plastic..
