Has Anyone ever have an AC adaptor for an old system overheat?

[vivaeljason]

this topic is already derailed, simply because i made it. if someone else made it you would all be creaming your pants over this topic.

Did anyone see that topic started by Icarus Moonsight the other day?

TOTALLY BLEW MY LOAD.

EDIT, so I actually contribute to this thread: I've never had one overheat for a console. My laptop's, however, gets quite hot at the drop of a hat. My usual answer is to unplug it until it cools down. That's obviously not an option for a console, so I'd suggest trying to get my hands on some first party ACs, stat. (Presumably) unlicensed third party crap = stay away if at all possible.
