I still have all mine. But I never play them. I mess with emulators though.

My modded PS1. It was the first hardware mod I ever did. It was a mess. It booted games sometimes, froze periodically. But, I would love to go back and fix the mod today and play some classics. I do have an unmodded ps1 mini with the attachment screen I have since purchased, but it just isn’t the same.

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?!

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

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

Not a console but I used to have a working Amiga 500 in the 90’s which I got rid of in favor of a PC. Wish I’d had held on to that one.

Assuming it would still work after all these years, I regret selling my Apple IIc back in the eighties. I miss those simple games and emulators just aren’t the same.

Reality is that it wouldn’t still work and all those bottom shelf floppies that I used to liberate games would have long since degraded.

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.

Yes and no. I had a modded Sega Saturn with a ram cartridge that I traded in to afford a Dreamcast when it came out. I love the Dreamcast so it wasn’t a bad trade, but I do wish I still had the Saturn too.

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 ain’t getting rid of my PSX.

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.

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.
