What choopa phil said, I used to work in an electrical goods repair shop, never dealt with a console before though. This is quite common but with TVs and some other similar things, if the components are a lot easier to see, you could usually see dry joints etc on tvs and things like that, but I honestly can't here.

That sucks! This is why I want to save mine aswell, I'm so close to finishing GT on all levels I couldn't bare to lose the data. most other things I'd be cool with.

Not sure if there is a way save the data or not yet.
