Hmm...I've had many blow up moments, but controllers I've not broken. Mario Party has caused much frustration, as have other games. Most lead to busted containers and other household things, but never a broken controller, strangely. I've mellowed out a bit, though, so yelling hasn't happened in a while...

I get frustrated when I play video games, yes; this much I'll admit. But I have never willingly broken a controller in rage resulting from a failure in a game. There is, however, one time when I did blow up during a game but, in my defense, I was having a bad acid trip.
I took LSD at a rave back in 1997 and I was having horrible hallucinations. I eventually ended up being carried to my friend's Ralph's car to be driven to his house. By the time I was on the comedown I wasn't hallucinating as badly but I was still in a somewhat panicked state. We got to his house, I threw up outside and was dumped on the living room couch. I didn't sleep but I don't remember any of what happened next. Apparently the boys started playing Super Mario Kart on the SNES and I wanted to play. So I started playing and the track we raced on was one of the Chocolate Plains tracks where the Monty Moles jump out of the ground and stick to the front of your kart. Apparently this REALLY FUCKING SURPRISED ME and I reportedly panicked that the mole was going to eat me and started yelling for him to get the fuck off my kart. I was told I threw the controller at the television breaking it and I rolled myself into a ball to cry myself to sleep.
I never did LSD ever again.
