Not quite, but I can try... I have an old, 8-bit Nintendo (the original, not one of the silly '93 remodels) that I got in '88 and that I've *never* had serviced that still works just fine. Every once in a while the spring doesn't catch, but that happened when it was new, too. And I have for it a copy of The Legend of Zelda that I got in '88 (secondhand, even) that I can still save games to... somehow, the five-year lifespan on the battery hasn't yet expired.
