The toughest gadget I have ever encountered is the controller for the NES. The original rectangular one, not the stupid rounded one they released later. That thing was indestructible. When frustrated we would hurl it at walls, at floors, at televisions. We went through a lot of walls, floors and televisions, but never had to replace the controller once.
When I was a little bratling I even took a bath with my beloved NES controller on several occasions, and after drying out it still worked every time. Can the Gameboy make that claim?
