    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?

    I have kept most of my Nintendo systems, but I sold my GameCube and now I regret it.

    Games are still playable on my Wii, but I would have modded the GC to load games from a sd card to make it more future proof, as the disk reading part is the most fragile.

    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 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 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 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.

    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 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.

    Donates mine to a children’s hospital. NES, SNES, PS1, N64 and PS2 and a whole mess of games. My PS3, Xbox, hacked Xbox and 360 I kept till they all broke so they just got binned and the games given away to family and/or friends.

    The only system out of all the consoles I currently want, and have wanted, but have never owned is Atari Jaguar with Jaguar CD. Someday…someday.

    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.

    I regret selling my SNES and all the games I had with it when I was a kid. I needed the money short term but have regretted selling it ever since. So many good childhood memories were had with that console. :(
