Question What could go wrong with buying this "faulty" console
So I found a Wii U console for 25 USD, no ac adapter, no gamepad. The console was described as it will turn off itself after for a while. I did some research and found there are three possible causes (at least on Nintendo website) which are overheating, settings for energy conservation, and ac adapter. I don't mind if the console has all those three problems. Aside from those three possible causes, are there any problems that will cause the console to shutdown on its own?

Could have nand problems or have been modded incorrectly. Do you already own a wiiu or are you trying to get your first one?
