My parents made me sell my original Gameboy before they would get me a Game Gear. I miss the way it sounded!

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.

I can’t recall a console I sold that I particularly regrets selling, but only because I never really lost out on anything. It’s not like I can’t still play my favorite games or anything. Also, I eventually reacquired the consoles I sold over time, not particularly out if regret, but out of the desire to share the experience with others in the future.

Though, I did sell a Retron5 that I had, it was the SNES Grey version. While it wasn’t exactly a retro console, it was pretty cool being able to consolidate all those retro consoles into one single device, and it looked pretty sleek too. I plan to check out a PolyMega sometime soon, I like their modular console idea a lot.

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 ain’t getting rid of my PSX.

My mom sent my Wii to family in the Dominican Republic, that was at the peak of Brawl… child me was never so upset.

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.

When I was young my brother wanted to trade in our crystal xbox for money towards an Elite 360.

I made a stink about it because I didn’t want to upgrade at the time, and I even ended up setting it up in the attic to try and avoid having it sold.

In the end Dad did end up trading it in… for 20p (good riddance to physical game shops).

Ended up getting my own crystal xbox as an adult, and I did end up playing Halo 3 ODST’s multilayer disc religiously. Still, for 20p Dad?!

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. :(

Also Dreamcast but for a different reason than most. I learned it played burned games by default 10 minutes after I sold it.

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.

Never personally sold any of my previously owned consoles, but I did “lose”* my Super Nintendo around 2001 and, sometime in 2011, my older brother messed up my PSone’s lid and it “disappeared” shortly afterwards.

* This loss was either my mom or aunt getting rid of it because "nobody is using it anymore, it's just wasting space and gathering dust". The same end my brother's CCE Turbo Game (a brazilian famiclone) had when I was even younger

Silver Gameboy advance SP - times were desperate, it ended up in a pawn shop.

Im sorry old friend

I still have a bunch of my original consoles: NES, Genesis, Dreamcast. The only I don’t still have are my PS1 (original, not the tiny One), N64, and Gamecube. PS upgraded to a PS2, and to be honest I never really played the N64 much. But the GC just kind of fell by the wayside and got lost. It had such amazingly unique games, but just was overlooked (even by me at the time) because it just didn’t match up graphically and didn’t really have the 1st or 3rd party support it needed.

Super Nintendo - I was in my mid teens and my mother coerced me into giving my Super Nintendo into my cousin, but I have regretted it ever since.

Coincidentally, Super Mario RPG remake is coming out in November and will probably make me feel fine again!
