Happened to me with my Canon rubber port protectors. They just disintegrated in my fingers.

TUMBLING DOWN

Classic case of plastic rot.

WHAT HAVE I BECOME

Hope it happens to every scalper, auctioneer and collectionfag.

Coomlectorbros, our response?

AAAAAAAA

>>714643310
My house burned down before this happened

>>714643142
>hori
Oh I am laughing.

>>714643142
How does this happen? Was it not preserved well? Was it left out in the sun? Is it just something that would have happened regardless of precautions taken?

>>714642948 (OP)
>live service service physical product

BUT IN THE EEEEENNNDDD
IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER

>>714642948 (OP)
3ds screens yellow like crazy too, IPS models have it worse

>>714642948 (OP)
>>714643142
What causes this? I didnt know this was a thing

This reminds me of a Pokemon Game Boy Color that was paired with a complementary battery, so what sealedfags are not told when spending thousands for it is the battery will eventually corrode and leak out onto the packaging and ruining it

>>714643142
Didn't know there was a collectors market for 3rd party asseories like cases.

>>714643392
>How does this happen? Was it not preserved well?
It was the material itself that wasn’t meant to last more than 5 years, it’s already a lot if it lasted 10

Why don't they make games last anymore?

>>714643392
>Is it just something that would have happened regardless of precautions taken?
lol, no. Frankly I'm not even sure this isn't fake.

>>714643671
was it this one? been trying to find one for a non-aids price but it'll probably require actually going outside

>>714643741

What are the games that clutch, what franchises grow
Out of this licensed rubbish? Son of liberty,
You cannot say, or guess, for you know only
A heap of broken drivers, where the servers close,
And piracy gives no shelter, the remaster no relief,
And the emulator no sound of childhood. Only
There is shadow under this industry,
(Come in under the shadow of this industy),
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

>>714643142
lmao based
Collector cucks btfo

>>714643142
That does actually look pretty gross

>>714644470
Yeah, New 3DS usually have that effect on people

>>714644672
What a disingenuous faggot. I fucking hate snoys that just shit up every thread for 3-4 days of the week because they're ass blasted by Famitsu charts

>>714643142
>buy case
>leave in packaging for 15 years
>???
>money stolen

>>714643782
It was one of these, forget the exact variant that is the issue
No issues with it if you open it and removed batteries but for any sealed shit it'll get ruined

>>714643142
>Condition: Brand New

>>714643142
bruh how?
what kind of plastic will just disintegrate like that in 15 years?

>>714643782
I had one of those from when I was like, six
yes, I did leave the dead batteries in for 10 years
yes, when I did dig it out of the closet it was ruined by battery acid

>>714644746
>Implying I'm a Snoynegro
>For mocking a shit Nintendo product
Go suckoff the Wii U why dontcha!

>>714643142
Are these meant to be N3DS faceplates? I know they got a variety of textures but not once have I known them to collapse into literal dust.

>>714643432
>Import sealed in box new3DS before I knew this.
>Decide to replace screen
>All replacement screens are unmarked as TN or IPS so there's no guarantee you're getting an IPS.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

>>714643392
Yeah if it isn't fake it's probably because they used biodegradable "plastic" like PLE which is made from corn. I know Lego is trying it with some of their tree pieces. But also there does exist regular plastics that are not meant to be archival (like plastic bottles). I remember opening up a plastic 10-in-1 game case and the little soft rubber/plastic inside looks like it was sweating, if you pressed your finger in it it would deform and was no longer hard. With the advent of random Chinese manufactures popping up with subpar quality control, and having engineers that think every plastic is the same, shit like this happens.

OH NO MY PLATONIC SHAPES AND FORMS HOWEVER WILL I BE HAPPY IF I DONT WITNESS THE ESSENCE OF A KITTEN ON MY IPHONE CASE WITH THE PROPER KEYCHAIN!

Sentimental and materialistic people I will never fucking understand. Reminds me of the sperg rage people gave me when I told them I threw away my modded wii since it was worthless e-waste thanks to emulation.

>>714644872
>>714644941
You can literally use rubbing alcohol or lemon juice to remove battery acid corrosion. In most cases it basically just becomes a solid mineral surrounding the metal parts. And now that to say that it reminds me that I had a dream last night about going through AA batteries one by one and some of them were oozing with acid and powder. Not sure what I needed the batteries for.

>>714645723
Like no seriously
>oh no my sacred corporate plastic I must worship this ritualistically throughout my life and act like I'm somehow not any different than a savage beast or a small child who needs a security blank

WHY THE FUCK ARE HUMANS LIKE THIS? YOU CLAIM YOU ARE AN INTELLIGENT SPECIES CHOSEN BY SOME SKY DADDY AND THEN YOU DO SHIT LIKE THIS.

>>714645723
Because you're a retard. Why not just give it to somebody? E waste is like old phones where you can't remove the battery and the OS cannot be updated and the apps don't work.

>>714643142
You know ive had a few electronic accessories made from plastic from the early 2010s era that crumble just like this due to age. What the fuck were they cheapening out on back then?

>>714645861
Nostalgiafags who try to play old games on anything other than an emulator or FPGA should have a bomb detonated in their skulls. I would rather burn a pile of money in front of a homeless person than let your savage nigger monkey ass get an iota of validation or justication towards acting like a fucking insect. Things exist to be practical and bloating up your property with 500 variations of silicon chips is a weaponized mental illness.

Damn, the switch 2 mindbroke the snoys so thoroughly their minds went back in time to shitpost about the 3DS.

>>714644746
kys, you faggots are a blight on this board

>biodegradable for collectibles
>not for water bottles that last centuries

>>714645636
You don't want IPS it yellows worse and faster

>>714643142
Does it disturb anyone to know that this is basically what everything in existence will become one day?

>>714646038
>I would rather burn a pile of money in front of a homeless person
Ok but you're a poorfag so why does it even matter? Besides that, there are already problems with emulation. I can understand if you try live minimalist and want your living space empty.

>>714645846
Because humans like to collect things. It doesn't matter if it's money, women, cars, stamps, or video games.

Just go drop it off at goodwill. I'm sure some poorfag would love it.
>I don't have the time to drop it off!!
Yeah. Because you're a poorfag. If you don't have time to drop it off it's because you're wealthy and busy and would have an assistant drop it off for you.

>>714646054
Reminder that the 3DS outsold the PS2 until Sony changed their numbers back in 2015 or some shit. I kid you not.

>>714646283
you get used to it

you've got 50 good years on this planet. you're not sentient until you're 18. you are actively falling apart by 68. the longer you live the worse it gets. make the most of it before you turn to dust like this retard's dumb collectible

>>714646283
not really because that "one day" is extremely distant

>>714643142
Damn, the white $1 chink phone case I ordered may be yellow, gross, feeling a bit oily and pretty brittle but it's not that bad

>>714646401
collecting anything beyond what you absolutely need is obscenely retarded on every conceivable level and just leaves yourself with unnecessary burdens. If the world goes up to shit and I'm suddenly forced to abandon my home if my chicken farm mysteriously dies and I have to relocate, I am not weighed down by immense levels of sentiment shit that I have to now internally evaluate and prioritize. I am prepared for everything at all times and your insinuation that I am poor makes laugh my ass off. Donating things that are actually useful is perfectly fine and I do such for tax writeoffs towards my business quite often but I'll be danmed if I'm going to contribute to something I vehemently hate with a level of abhorrence. I demand everyone uses the newest possible tech at all times and constantly adapts themselves to the changing standards of the world in terms of technocratic progress. You shouldn't be allowed to own ewaste like your grandmother shouldn't be allowed to hoard glassware and it is THAT simple.

>>714645650
it says TPU right there bro

>>714646726
I buy old laptops impulsively, I have seven laptops that are all useless because they're 10-20 years old

>>714646787
I will never understand you and I am upset that I share a planet with you, I'm not sure where else this discussion could go from there. I'm so glad my nothingburger nameless faceless worthless soul is so godanm weightless in comparison. I'll leave you to your silly thread.

>>714643142
>Plastics are bad for the environment they take 1000s of years to break down!
Meanwhile...

>>714645650
>>714646784
yeah if that is real TPU there is no reason for it to have done that.
even in sunlight.

>>714646726
>collecting anything beyond what you absolutely need
That's not collecting.

>I am prepared for everything at all times
Only a retard believes this. When shit goes down nothing will go to plan ans events you never planned for will happen.
>I do such for tax writeoffs towards my business
You donate for monetary gain, not the goodness of your heart. Again, Subhuman.
>>714646726
>I demand everyone uses the newest possible tech
I'm not wasting money on garbage like OLED, Dolby Vision, HDR, etc. it's for low IQ people.

>>714647109
I don't care what your idea of collecting is, stop doing it. Own nothing and be happy about it you piece of shit, should have never godanm left your fucking cave cause you clearly haven't learned shit no matter how many times you travel through a ballsack trying to survive all this mr caveman.

>>714646726
Oh neat, a genuine psychopath.

>>714646909
It's an addiction. They all cost nothing. Under 100 USD. How could I say no?

>>714646909
How are they useless? What stopping you from slapping linux on them and creating your host file hosting server through ssh. Or using them as VPNs

>>714643782
I had the hideous ugly version of this one that came with yellow version.

>>714643142
>chink plastic
Do you rike it?

I love learning about games, waiting for a great jew price, and slowly adding to my collection and it makes me happier knowing lots of /v/ermin hate it, lol.

Now grading scams, hoarding tons of sealed stuff, owning 100 of every console, and buying games you know deep down you wont play is dumb, I'll definitely give you that.

TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN

>>714643647
TPU can be biodegradable. Trapped moisture in the packaging and exposure to heat or sunlight will destroy it over time.

>>714643142
I mean, I've had several ps vitas, and the rubber on the analog sticks always degrade over time. But thats too much

>>714642948 (OP)
Its the literal protective gas thing/batteries most likely/screens that get fucked in these old consoles/tech if they are kept inside a case. If there wasn't any of that gas I doubt they would go bad other than the battery fucking up.

>>714643142
w-what was it meant to look like?

>>714643142
STOP KILLING COLLECTIBLES

>>714643142
Something like this happened to the soft rubber hoses/pipes on my t-45d power armour statue. It sat on my shelf for 5 years, wasn't expose to sunlight but when I moved houses I noticed the soft rubber under the armour plating disinterested

>>714643142
...How? Where was he storing this? The New 3DS is barely over 10 years now, how does something disintegrate that quickly?

>>714643392
Plastic degrades. That's why my A/C unit's tube is now 20% duct tape.

>>714650507
It's a case not the console you stupid fuck.

>>714650587
Point still stands dumbass I have shitty cheap phone cases from 10 years ago that are completely fine

>>714643142
This is apparently what it looked like.

I had a TPU clear case for my 3DS that I had to throw out last year because it was disintegrating

I never played in the sun or left it out near a window either

>>714646283
I thought about this a lot as a kid and now I'm not only indifferent to it, I actively hope the sun explodes while I'm still alive.
