I sold my copy of the special disc with all the zelda games on the gamecube
Still hate myself for it actually, I sold a lot of games at my dad's behest so he could make himself weed money

>buying games for $60
>selling them back to Gamestop for $5

did people really unironically do this?
when I was a kid I only bought games I knew I'd cherish and keep forever, everything else was a rental

Fucking Path of Radiance. Fucking GC games in general actually, most sure why so many of them ballooned in value

I sold Dynasty Warriors for the DS for .75 cents, kinda worth it because the sour gumballs I got from a machine afterward were pretty good

It's now nostalgia

Is Silent Hill PT worth anything still? I remember someone sold a PS4 that had it for like $900

>sold my gamecube, PS2 and all games to buy Wii games
regret it deeply
>sold Wii and all games to buy a 1070
best decision of my life

>parents gave away your previous system when you got the next one even when you begged to keep them every time
>looking back at all of the good shit I owned that some random kid on his birthday got from me that now costs a fortune

I sold Haunting Ground even though I fucking loved it. I don't know what I was thinking at the time. Probably sold it for some shitty game that I no longer have.

Was that the one that came bundled with WW as a pre-order bonus back when they weren't dogshit?

At least your parents didn't chuck away your binder full of the original 151 Pokemon cards.

Saw Stubbs the Zombie at GameStop as a kid. I always wanted to get it, but knew my mom would never buy it.
I looked on ebay and it's expensive. There's even one copy that's almost 2 thousand dollars.

Fuck, me too. My biggest regret. Also Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons. I don't think they're expensive now but for personal reasons I miss them so much.

Same dude. Best not to think about it.

I sold 10 GameCube games for like 2 dollars and I used that two dollars to buy a wow trial. which turned into a mmo addiction which has taken well over 30k hours of my life.

my dad didnt let me sell or even lend my games to friends as a kid and every time I remember this i am thankful for it

When I got older during high school i lent a gamecube game to a friend.
Never got it back, thats when I knew he was right all along.

Games i've sold back in the days (all complete in good to mint condition)

PSX
Ogre Battle
Tactic ogre
Star ocean 2
Xenogear black sleeve

Saturn
Megaman 8
Shining the holy ark
Guardian heroes

I also sold my complete collection of genesis/ sega cd that included games like el viento, phantasy star 2, lunar 1, shining force cd and dark wizard. Im sure um forgetting a lot more

I still have loads of valuable games and i can at least say that i sold them for way more than 5$ at a mom and pop game trade store. But damn i wish i kept them all

>take in Metroid other M to trade in
>they don't even take it and just set it aside

>tfw never was a retard that sold his games for pennies
Might be the hoarder in me, but I would never sell a game I liked.

>dude in high school lets me borrow his Classic Controller
>completely leaves the school right after, never could return it
>fast forward to college, can't find it, want to borrow another one for the Wii U
>ask another dude I knew to borrow one
>guy ALSO disappears
>ended up finding the original one later
I don't know how this happened but it makes my current SNES Classic setup feel haunted

>sell Seasons for like $3
>get nostalgic for it over the years
>see another used copy at a different Gamestop like a decade later
>bought it for $30
Glad they're going under, that business model is scummy as fuck

Good on your dad. I have all of my games, except for all 15 or so N64 games, all because I lend games to a lot of people. I can't find a single fucking one, but I still have my N64.

>Tfw had both Cubivore and strangely Doshin the Giant despite not getting a US release
>Kid me didn't like them and wanted to sell them for Wario World
>Was at the game store and was going to sell them
>Cashier says they are sold out
>Goes home with the 2 games intact.
>Friend buys Wario World some days later, beat the game at his house since it was around 4 hours long
Best thing that ever happened to me, Cubivore is ridiciously expensive these days

Why would you own Doshin the Giant if the Gamecube is region locked
