Do You Regret Throwing Away / Selling Anything?

[Jiggle Counter]

I regret selling my SNES and N64.

I sold those to have enough to buy the next console up. I hung onto my NES, only because I'm a massive Mega Man fan, but I never thought there'd be a day where I'd look back on my sold possessions and said, "Damn it, I should've kept it"

Nowadays if I need to reminisce, I do so through roms and emulators, which in the end just doesn't feel the same.

I also regret throwing away my old 386 computer. It got me into computers, and pretty much shaped my career as an adult.

Yeah. At one point I had both Pokemon RPG games for the Gamecube (Colosseum and Gale of Darkness) . I traded them in. Now they're each worth like $50. I've gotten one now, and am looking to find the other for a decent price.

I had a shoebox full of sports ticket and rock concert stubs that I kept for a long time. When I moved a while back, I decided I didn't need them any more. I shouldn't have done that.

I had Diablo on the PlayStation when I was younger. Sold it at a garage sale. I've regretted that for a while now. Oh well.

I do sort of regret selling all of the old NES and SNES RPGs that I used to own, but it more of a momentary regret than a deep one. I think to myself "Boy, it would be cool to still own an original physical copy of FF4/6/CT/etc. but then I realize that I'd probably never play them on an actual SNES again as I can own them for cheap on a variety of systems I already have ready to play. They would be cool to own but ultimately just be sitting in a box somewhere collecting dust.

Yep, I regret selling my PS2 and all associated games. I may never be able to play Godzilla: Save the Earth again. Also my Gameboy Advance SP and my FireRed game. I had a large amount of that Pokedex complete.

Not something I regret, but I bet the friend I don't talk to anymore regrets it. He gave me all of the original three starters, final forms, holographic, Pokemon cards for nothing. Meaning the ones that are worth a bunch of money. Gave me them for free, claiming he didn't want to play Pokemon anymore.

I traded in L4d and WaW (the last good CoD), and a couple others for MW2. Huge fucking mistake. My dad was one of those uber cheap guys (at the time), so his influence and constant urging made me think it was a good idea.

Not my fault, but I'm sad that I didn't keep up with my Pokemon card collection. My sister gave them away to some neighborhood boy when I wasn't at home. I brought it up to her recently and she didn't even remember doing it. Some nerve.
Ah, well, I should have kept up with them in the first place.
I also really miss my N64.

I wish I hadn't traded in most of my Super Nintendo, Megadrive, N64, Gamecube, PS1 and PS2 games.

So many things I can never go back to get.

Also, my first Chaos Space Marines and Space Marines armies, my Necromunda gang and my Tyranids.

I miss my YuGiOh cards as well.

At one point I had Megaman Legends 1 and 2, the Misadventures of Tron Bon, and an Original Symphony of the Night for PS1. I also had a bunch of Classic Square games, Einhander, The Bouncer, Bushido Blade, and Brave Fencer Musashi. Basically if it was a classic PS1 game that is now rare, I had it. I eventually have a big box of games to my younger cousin because he got a ps2 for his birthday one year and I wanted him to have some old classics to play too, the kid used to be a real animal and slob, so he ended up either breaking or ruining most of the discs. Honestly one of the bigger regrets in my life.

While growing up, I never sold the toys I had, and they had accumulated to the point where like, 90% of my bedroom was just storage for them. I was way too attached to my toys as a kid. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I had the willpower to sell literally everything at once at a garage sale. (I wanted the money for a PS3.) And, well... Toy Story 3 was in theaters the next week.

I... didn't take it very well...
