A few months ago when my 5 year old nephew was visiting, he wanted to play on my PS2. Knowing him, I said no because he has a known history for... breaking things. After constantly begging the hell out of me, I caved in and inserted some game which I cant remember what it was and let him have it. After 30 minutes though, I had to leave for work, and told him not to forget to turn it off when hes finished. Well after a 10 hour shift which seemed like forever, sure enough, he forgot, and the ps2 was left on pretty much all day long. It didn't do much harm. However since my PS2 was kinda old, it now freezes up on occasion.

my cousin alway did to me i hated it and i would hear the game on but i thought he was still playing. he likes to sneak away and leave shit running which pisses me off since im a freak about keeping me stuff it good conidition
I left my NES on overnight once. That's about it. With my Wii, even after turning it off it still stays pretty hot so I make a point to unplug it as well. I love my Wii and wouldn't want anything bad to happen to it

a friend of mine used to have a dreamcast. he left it on for a whole day on accident once and the engine burned up. since his dad had a number of great games of his own for the system, he got grounded for more than a month and bought a new dreamcast soon after
was this a gas or steam engine?
and did you remember to change the oil every 3,000 miles?
I bet your room and/or house got polluted, real fast.
PS: How many miles to the gallon did said engine get? also is it a DOHC or SOHC?

Come to think of it, I should be thankful he just forgot to turn it off and didnt do anything else like spelling juice all over the unit or breaking some of the games in half.
When I was a little girl, I used to leave our NES or the Sega Genesis on for about an hour but ever since our NES got fried, I don't leave systems on anymore.
sigh, reading all this is starting to remind me of that bizarre short on x-play with morgan von vebb destroying a ps2, an xbox, and a gamecube to see which one still works... i wish i could see that same episode again...
Gamecube for 24 hours. Surprisingly, it didn't do any damage.
Yes, the Gamecube is the system I left on for a about a week a few times. But it has a fairly good fan to keep it cool, which is why I think it doesn't bother it much.
I used to leave my systems on (mostly NES and SNES) all the time for games that didn't have a save or password feature. I would leave them on when I went to school or went to bed. I would never leave a system like the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or any other disc based system on in fear of it overheating.
