I still have all mine. But I never play them. I mess with emulators though.
My mum made me sell my Gameboy Colour, which was still in great condition, for a 10er at a flea market. Still get sad about it any time I think about it… Was my first ever console and probably the reason green is my favourite colour now.
i actually regret getting rid of my wii u. it had a solid library of games and i sold it to gamestop to buy overwatch and a couple other games during a steam sale. only years later did i learn that the wii u is probably the best console for playing the entire nintendo catalogue. rip.
Yes and no. I had a modded Sega Saturn with a ram cartridge that I traded in to afford a Dreamcast when it came out. I love the Dreamcast so it wasn’t a bad trade, but I do wish I still had the Saturn too.
I slightly regret selling my Wii U to get a Switch but I think there’s still time to backpedal on that one without it being a huge loss.
I ain’t getting rid of my PSX.
I have never sold a console. I have frustratingly lost a few handhelds, which sucks.
I slightly regret not keeping a large CRT, but honestly those things are stupidly heavy and made of glass. I did score some small CRTs at flea markets awhile back, which is more than enough for the novelty.
My mom sent my Wii to family in the Dominican Republic, that was at the peak of Brawl… child me was never so upset.
I have the same regret, I gave my N64 to a family friend in the late 90s. However, I later bouught a replacement N64 with two new-in-box gold controllers so I can still get my GoldenEye fix.
I got an NES when I was 12 and my mom told me that I had to get rid of my Colecovision and games because there was “too much clutter.” I tried selling it in the classifieds but I got no calls, so I wound up throwing it in the trash.
This series of events haunts me on a regular basis.
My Atari 2600 with 80+ games. Only because I saw it sold for like $40k decades later lol.
My parents made me sell my original Gameboy before they would get me a Game Gear. I miss the way it sounded!
I’ve been feeling this lately as well. I’ll see people post pictures of display cases filled with all their consoles and it makes me regret giving away my old consoles when I bought a new one.
I especially miss my N64.
Console, no. But somehow my parents convinced me to give away my copy of Pokémon Blue to one of my cousins. One of the dumbest things I’ve done, even if It wasn’t entirely my fault.
I know the feeling, even when I never experienced it beforehand (I wasn’t the cousin just to be clear).
Did your cousin at least took care of it?
Tbh no clue. Never saw it again, never heard about it again haha.
One of my old friends dad sold the atari jaguar. With multiple controllers and a pretty full game library. Pretty sure it was worth a pretty penny then too but he didn’t think twice about it. Would probably fetch over a grand now for the collection.
