As a previous smoker i can confirm those PS3s caked in brown "dust" are actually a cigarette smokers system. I used to clean my consoles and PCs out that looked like that after only a couple of months. Since becoming a non smoker, i don't even get close to that amount of dust anymore. Even after 12 months of heavy use never turning off my PC it just gets a small amount of grey dust film, not that thick brown tar dust.
Back in 2011 I got a Xbox Elite that looked brand new, boxed with 2 officiall controllers and a few games for free, I bought it on Ebay and the next morning it arrived, but the thing is I never paid for it and the seller ignored all my emails about payment.
go outside and clean it with a garden hose give it a proper cleaning, then was the water away with destilled water and let it dry for 2 weeks then test it...
I'm rough with my stuff, it get's dinged around on a normal. That being said, the stuff that happens to these consoles. It honestly really makes me question the owners health. It's really sad to be honest.
I used to work at a retro game store where about half of the time I was on the clock I would be in the back cleaning, repairing, restoring, reviving and get general junk to a re-sellable state. I was pretty good at my job and I think that the rest of the team resented me, because the last 6 months I was working there they took in so much just nasty and broken stuff to try to test and push me. We made a lot of profit that I heard once I moved the store didn’t make it 2 more years. I’ve debated writing a book with the stories about the things I bared witness too, and I still can’t scrub from my memories some of the things I saw, touched, and managed to transform.
I have a couple of stories revolving around gaming. One was the fact that in 2019, I went to a rich neighborhood to go yardsaling and found an xbox one for 30 bucks. I bought it obviously, and it worked just fine for years.
Roaches ain’t nothing? Lol buddy, those things can infest youre house and then you’ll have roaches crawling out of everywhere. I’ll take a spider over roaches anyday
Probably the two worse things I ever discovered was a significantly decayed mouse in a NES when I went to change the 72 pin connector (the system still powered on and the mouse was fused to the board) or when I went to open the lid of a OG PS1 to check the laser and there was a used (at least I think it was) condom stuck to the inside of the lid….. those my be the worst but I’ve got dozens of more horror stories that I could potentially write a book if I ever get motivated lol
@@rexrabbiteer Work on it out in the open in secluded spot outside well away from home and give it clean out, that way you don't risk the infestation. Once the things been nuked completely then you can bring it back home.
Roaches are 10 times worse than spiders. Roaches infest homes, spread quickly, and can turn your life into a nightmare. On the other hand, spiders rarely infest homes and actually help by killing other bugs. Roaches bring bacteria and harm, while most spiders are harmless and do more good than bad.
I do pest control and you'd be amazed at how many german roach treatments are done because if a video game coming into the house. We use a dry powder inside electronics...
I believe you will have to hard mod the Xbox to swap out the hard drive...softmod won't work because you need to be able to get the keys off the drive and you can't access the drive, you can't get the keys....at least that how it was back in the day when I was modding OG Xbox consoles. Using a modchip (TSOP Flash won't work on a 2005 machine) will allow you to use any off the shelf hard drive up to like 2TB (may be larger now though)
It looked like a couple of those consoles were victims of flood damage. Also, do not take any chances when it comes to roaches. I hope you disinfected your work table but those consoles in plastic bags before dropping them in your outside can.
This hasn't happened yet but Its only a matter of time before i buy something and hear something scratching around inside. I buy a lot of stereo equipment and game systems from sketchy garage sales.... i say to myself whats the odds of it even working as i look at it covered in dust and flith. I did find an Xbox One that I bought from family that didn't speak English. It didn't work but it did help if it didn't have moms credit card inside the drive :)
Did you already throw away the roachbox 360? I am trying to find a top and bottom cover as well as the USB port cover for my 360s 😂would've been a perfect donor
7:50 dont be such a wimp go outside and clean it with a garden hose give it a proper cleaning, then was the water away with destilled water and let it dry for 2 weeks then test it...
Even though it's error 07 and the drive opens fine, I would test swapping the disc drive with another known good one on that original xbox, I had the same error code on mine and it ended up being the disc drive was bad, even though it would open / close
My brother,...... idk know if this is your office or your home. Just throw it out quickly !!!!! I don't care how much you brought it, I love your content
I want the roach Infected xbox 360 slim and fat Would be a nice chalenge for me becouse i dont want to See them trown away but thats waht i saying not a joker i mean it really
Hey man! Do you know how to fix Wii U consoles that just won't connect anymore? I've had 3 that got that screen of death and refuse to connect to the gamepad or the TV, it's hard to describe but I can't be the only one having this happen all the time
YardSaleDale here! Glad you’re enjoying the consoles 😂 Also, the sticky notes are my notes. All the others are from the game store that I bought out!

I once saw an xbox 360 on marketplace and the only payment the seller wanted for it was a dad joke. It worked perfectly
well, what was your joke?

i don't even remember lol. If I did then you would have to give me an xbox in return
Should have tested to find if only a “good” dad joke would have been expected…
Missed a golden opportunity to send the roach consoles to DK Oldies!
😂😂 that would actually be really funny if I could see the reaction on the other end. Redemption for the desert ps3
@@jrob0021 Joey: Hiya guys, just got a lot here from a Jacob. This is a 360 here and. ::screams like a girl::
Trying to start a console full of dead roaches is wild, I'm sure it would clean up fine tho.
that console did not stick around to find out lol
Someone I knew gave me a PS3 and it had roaches in it, I threw it away instantly 😂

Bugs in that xbox 360 really loves gaming 😎

They probably like to play gta 4 and 5 😂

Believe it or not, I'd actually clean those Xbox out completely. Roaches ain't nothing... spiders... are a whole different thing.

that one was desert ps3 on steriods

The first original Xbox console you tested is perfect for the Raspberry Pi Pico mod to bring it back to life, even with a faulty hard drive.

4:30 realization moment

The bugs, dirt and grime is a feature found only in game consoles that's been gamed HARD on for hours.
Yarsale dale the roach king of consoles.
Would love to see you tear some of these consoles down!
Dude I understand that those consoles had roaches in them but it hurt my soul to see those go in the trash.
Yeah I don’t like throwing stuff away either but there was a 0% chance consoles that nasty were gonna ride back home with me in my truck.
@@jrob0021 , someone at the hotel struck gold since you threw away the consoles.
Thank god I don’t have roaches in my country. The worst thing you can find is dead insects or cigarettes dust lol.
I remember having to slam the disc door shut on my ps1 as well. That took me back to highschool days.

Bro i recently bought some xenon untested 360s and they were all in an older dahs
Nice, got lucky!
Had the same issue as the Halo Reach 360 with my 360. All I did was unplug the ribbon cable from the front plate and now it stays on with no issues.
Should turn this into a proper series like the others, called something like Dale's yard trash
This one is the best PS3 I’ve ever saw 16:02

I bought an Xbox 360 slim with three controllers, cod:waw and mw2 for £10 and everything works perfectly
My old neighbor kids had a PS5 and it was full of dust and the HDMI port on the back with broke 😢
It sad that people don't take care of their stuff
Man that don’t make this like they use to no more bro 😢

Oh these were all filmed in a hotel and thrown away in a hotel dumpster so I have nothing to worry about anymore 😂
