Markiplier is a man who owns 5 ovens. MattKC is a guy who owns 8 total xboxes. MattKC could win the duel because of his higher ammo but Markiplier's ammo, while not in as large of a supply, is heavier and therefore deals more damage. It's a matter of who can throw faster.

3:50 There was a huge "recall" back in the day because of this issue, though I think Microsoft mostly just sent out little devices that could detect if there was a bad power connection to the Xbox and shut it down, and only then would you get it warranty replaced.

I remember when my dad accidentally bought a car. the car was "too cheap" on ebay. So he made a bid on it hoping to up the price to the final buyer. (why would you care if you don't want it). No one else bid on it. He won it. Did nothing with it and eventually sold it. The car he did intend to buy he barely touched. Eventually had it professionally restored. Over the years I think he probably spent about 30-40k on it for a car he rarely drives because it's a "classic".

I remembered around 2018 when many of the city garage sales have the original xbox consoles on sale for $5 each. People just wanted to get rid of them because they were bulky and the controllers were bulky. I didn't mind picking them all up. The ones that powered up and read game discs I turned around and sold them at eBay and Amazon. The ones that does not power on, I swapped with another parts console and if it able to read disc then sell that. The disc tray coming out issue or cd reading issue is usually the cd rubber band is too old and just replace with another for $1. Learned so much by buying these and trying to fix them. Even for $10 it is a good learning experience. In your case I would ask him what is the best price he can do for all 6. Most of the time can get them for $50 or even $40, which will make the deal even sweeter. If not no loss and at $60 still a great price.

This wasn't recent, but many years ago, I bought three older consoles off of someone on Craigslist. It was a PS1, PS2, and Dreamcast, and all for only $20. Most of them even came with cords and at least one controller. - The PS1 turned on and ran just fine, but controller port 1 didn't seem to work. Cleaning it did the trick though. Weirdly, the spindle was missing those... thingies (teeth?) to grip the disc, but a little tape around it did the trick. Still works great to this day! - The Dreamcast worked... except controller port 1 again. Cleaning it also did the trick. That's all it took. - The PS2... it took some work. The controller ports all worked this time, but it wouldn't even turn on at first. Giving it a big ol' cleaning did the trick, but the disc drive was really faulty (it'd only sometimes successfully read a disc, and even then, it often took really long). Fortunately, it came with that... modem thingy on the back (I'm so good with technical terms), so I was able to install a Homebrew launcher on the memory card and run my games off the hard drive. I wish I knew how to properly fix the disc drive, but it's no biggie. Plus, one of the loaders lets me use my wireless PS3 controller, so that's pretty convenient! And it's a good thing I can do that, too; the official PS2 controller that came with it was in horrid condition. The plastic was cracked and... I've no idea why, but the left analogue stick worked fine until I pressed down on L3, and then it'd suddenly no longer get the full range. I had to unplug & replug it back in to get it to work right again. I had no idea how to fix this, until one day I discovered that pressing against the underside of the board (particularly those silver soldered pins) would actually stop it from messing up. I've no idea why, but pressing L3 again after that no longer messed it up. I placed a thin piece of plastic on the inside of the controller to keep some pressure on those pins, and thus the controller finally started working right! Or rather... it did, until about a year later, anyway. Suddenly, the buttons stopped working and the controller wouldn't stop vibrating, regardless of many times I unplugged and replugged it back in. If I had your smarts, I probably could've saved it... alas, I had no idea what to do, so I ended up throwing it away.

3:50 That's probably just a bad solder joint. Especially if they used low quality solder and the last owner plugged and unplugged the power cord, that probably started cracking the solder joint and having a loose connection. The PSU probably still works, it just needs a reflow of the solder joint with lots of flux.

That PSU issue looks like a dry/cracked solder joint - probably exacerbated by the force applied to the power plug being inserted and removed. That's why it's sparking - because it isn't making proper contact. I've seen that issue on Xbox PSUs before at least. It's unlikely that this would damage anything much further down the line, but it can definitely damage the PSU PCB and surrounding components. It is of course possible that the constant voltage spikes (or just heat from the PCB) fried something else in the PSU that in turn killed something on the motherboard, which would be rather tricky to track down (though hunting for shorts, injecting voltage and looking for hot spots, and tracing voltages across the motherboard to see if they suddenly disappear somewhere tends to all be useful methods).

That power supply looks like the Xbox took a fall and the jack was ripped off the board, all the burning is probably just a result of it being left plugged in like that for a time as it seems localized to one of the pins on the jack. So the power supply board might just need a new jack.
