Gaming consoles are entertainment hubs — not just game machines. They handle 4K streaming, social gaming, media libraries, and apps. When internal cooling fails or the APU overheats, you lose your entire gaming ecosystem.

🎮 Gaming Coverage Rules

Console Coverage: Game On vs. Game Over

Clear boundaries for gamers — we cover internal hardware failures, not rage quits or accidents.

✅ Game On - Covered

Internal hardware failures only

📺 HDMI Failure (Non-Impact)

• Internal HDMI board failure - No signal output, port looks fine
• Display processor malfunction - Console runs but no video
• Graphics chip failure - Corrupted display, system boots normally
Gaming impact: Can't see games, stream, or use media apps

⚡ Power Supply Board Failure

• Internal power board failure - Won't turn on, no external damage
• Power regulation failure - Random shutdowns during gaming
• Charging circuit failure - Handheld won't charge (internal issue)
Gaming impact: Console dead or unreliable during sessions

🔄 Console Fails to Boot (Internal, Verified)

• Boot loop failure - Hardware prevents startup, not software
• Motherboard failure - Core system won't initialize
• Internal storage failure - System partition corrupted (hardware)
Gaming impact: Complete system failure, can't play anything

🌡️ Internal Fan or Overheating Shutdown (Non-External)

• Internal fan failure - Fan stops working, overheating protection kicks in
• Thermal management failure - Sensors malfunction, system overheats
• Heat sink detachment - Internal cooling system failure
Gaming impact: Performance throttling or emergency shutdowns

🎮 USB Port or Controller Sync Failure (No Signs of Damage)

• USB controller failure - Ports don't recognize controllers
• Bluetooth module failure - Wireless controllers won't sync
• Controller communication failure - Internal sync hardware broken
Gaming impact: Can't control games, system unusable

❌ Game Over - Not Covered

User-caused damage & accidents

💥 Dropped or Thrown Consoles

• Rage quit damage - Console thrown or slammed
• Accidental drops - Fell off entertainment center
• Impact damage - Hit by controllers, remotes, or objects
Why not covered: User behavior, not hardware defect

💧 Water or Drink Spills

• Gaming fuel spills - Energy drinks, soda, coffee on console
• Water damage - Spilled drinks, pet accidents, humidity
• Party accidents - Liquid spills during gaming sessions
Why not covered: Environmental damage, not internal failure

🔌 Bent or Cracked Ports from Forced Removal

• USB ports damaged - Controllers yanked out forcefully
• HDMI ports bent - Cable inserted wrong way or forced
• Power port damage - Charging cable pulled too hard
Why not covered: User force/carelessness, not component failure

🎨 Cosmetic Damage to Housing or Controllers

• Scratches and scuffs - Normal wear from use and moving
• Controller wear - Stick drift, button wear, cosmetic damage
• Housing discoloration - UV damage, staining, aging
Why not covered: Cosmetic issues don't affect gaming functionality

🔧 Damage from Modification or Firmware Flashing

• Homebrew damage - Custom firmware causing hardware issues
• Modchip installation - DIY modifications gone wrong
• Overclocking damage - Hardware pushed beyond safe limits
Why not covered: User modifications void coverage and cause damage

🎮 Gaming Console Protection Focus

ProtectSmart covers gaming consoles when internal hardware fails on its own. Modern consoles have powerful APUs, cooling systems, and storage that can break down. We don't cover accidents, but we protect against the expensive internal failures that occur during normal gaming.

"

"My PS5 died right before a major tournament. Sony wanted me to wait weeks for a repair that might not even work. ProtectSmart did a 15-minute Zoom call, confirmed it was hardware failure, and had $499 in my account the next day. I bought a new PS5 and didn't miss a single match."
