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.
I ain’t getting rid of my PSX.
I still have all mine. But I never play them. I mess with emulators though.
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 regret getting rid of my Wii, only because that’s the one I’m missing to complete my Nintendo home console collection. I had initially sold it because the Wii U played Wii games, but it would be nice to have it back for a complete set.
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.
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 had curated perfect-to-me PS1 and PS2 game collections, and had the later, smaller versions of both systems. Both whole collections fit in a bread box, but I gave both away to save space. I cannot believe how much I regret that.
Literally all of my nintendo handhelds. My mom made me and my sister get rid of all of them when we bought PSPs. I was young and dumb, and convinced myself it was a fair trade, two GBA SPs and an original DS…
Fuck me, I was stupid. I miss my old Pokémon games.
To date, I’ve never sold one. At times it makes me feel like a hoarder, but in all honesty I do semi-regularly go back and play my old systems.
Edit: and/or repair – my NES works again.
My Atari 2600 with 80+ games. Only because I saw it sold for like $40k decades later lol.
Silver Gameboy advance SP - times were desperate, it ended up in a pawn shop.
Im sorry old friend
Ouch. I definitely understand that.
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.
