I just bought a second-hand 500gb Super Slim PS3. Good idea y/n? Should I have bought a slim instead?

I own one, it works fine and it's easy to transport. There might be an overheating problem but I've never had it.
what the hell is a super slim ps3
>>321591084
Dude, there's literally a picture of one
>>321590792
its fine. Superslim is uglier and feels like cheap shit but plays your games so what's to complain about?
>>321591031
Really? Aww shit. Why does it feels like PS3s are as unreliable as fuck?
>>321591140
No shit but when and why was it even released?
im on my 4th ps3 had 2 fat and 2 slims. wish the super slim was around when i got mine. it just seems too simple to fuck up.

i dont remember the exact date when it was released but for why it was released is probably its cheaper to manufacture and still make a nice profit
>>321591152
Like 3 years ago? It's cheaper to manufacture and also smaller
>>321591538
Well, that makes me feel a little better, weirdly. We'll see!
>>321590792
You'd probably never need 500 gigs. You probably could have found a 120GB PS3 for cheaper.
Should have gotten a fat PS3 for ps2/psx backwards compatibility.

Doesn't the PS3 require game installs?
>>321591909
Not for all games. Some games like Metal Gear Solid 4 recommend it to improve load times, but I can't think of any games that explicitly require it.
>>321591909
Some games require installation. You can also download games from the PSN. While you probably did not need 500 gigs, it doesn't hurt to have it.

But aren't they unreliable as fuck, and as big as a house?
I own one and it's great, maybe a little noisy but that's it.
However I regret not buying a fat or slim one because of piracy.
Maybe someone will crack this shit but I doubt it.

They're beefy, but why would you be lugging around a console? I've had a fat one since launch and haven't had any problems regarding reliability.
You're also missing out on what >>321592296 said.
>>321590792
You could probably have bought a new one for just a little bit more.
>>321592459
I seriously doubt it. Have you seen the prices of new PS3s? Also, I got it cheap, and people are doing firesales as last-gen is finished
