Welcome to 2006. Consider yourself lucky it lasted this long.

It's just overheated. Pour a glass of water on it to cool it down.

You just have to blow inside the cartridge, inside where you put the game in, and maybe inside the controller port


Oh, the 360? you're fricked

I kid you not. Night of getting fricked up with the bro's. Come home to play a little xbox. Move it from my room to the living room. Bud says it would be funny if you got the red ring. So nuff i turned that bitch on and it was red. True Story.

2006 would have meant the hypothetical fat PS3 would have gotten YLOD.

I've used this method to fix a couple of xbox 360s and they are still working to this day. It's pretty easy to do, just follow the directions.

Fix RROD

However, if it's still under warranty I would just send it back and deal with the wait time.
