There was a Xmas price cut, so I went ahead and picked one up.
A friend of mine said that if you turn it on and off with the switch in the back it will prematurely wear out the system, and what you should do is hold down the reset button until the light turns red and keep it like that while you're not using it. Is this true?
Two, I don't know what I have to buy or how much it is, but I don't really play anything besides fighting games, and Tony Hawk series. With this in mind, is it in my best interest to buy whatever it is I need to play online?
