Ooof yeah those are definitely a few to want back for good reason.prfsnl_gmr wrote:I bought a new copy of a Earthbound in the 90s for $10. I threw away all the paperwork, and traded the game in because I didn't like it. I regret that. I also traded in CIB copies of Panzer Dragoon II, Lunar 2, Shining the Holy Ark, and Castlevania Chronicles. I would like those back.

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
I remember that my parents gave away my Amiga to my cousins as soon as we've bought a Windows PC. Ok, I understand that from their perspective - it was just progress. From one hardware to another. An upgrade.
But for me it was hearthbreaking! I was just a kid and I couldn't stop them. I even remember that it was a cool feeling - sharing something that I love with my cousins. But now - I regret that it happened. Of course, I could buy the same exact model (500 Plus)... but it would not be the same anymore. This one was mine - you know what I mean? Lol, I never was attached so attached to a piece of hardware that I was to this Amiga.
And now it's lost in time, like tears in rain.

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
I haven't sold too terribly much. Only a couple things come to mind:
1) 32X and Sega CD stuff when I moved in 2005 (I had both models). I picked some stuff back up since then, but I still haven't got around to getting a Sega CD unit (not sure which model I'll get first)
2) Die Hard Arcade for the Saturn. (Around 2005 also, I believe) I sold very few Saturn games, but that was one of the bigger ones. It was worth more that most in my collection and I thought I got my fill of it and I needed the money. I kinda want to spend more time with it now and it's also appreciated nicely.

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
I have a fantastic 32X that I do not use. It's a cool part of gaming history, but beyond Knuckles Chaotix, Star Wars Arcade, and Virtua Racing / Fighter, I don't know that I'm in love with it.racketboy wrote:I haven't sold too terribly much. Only a couple things come to mind:

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
I agree. I also like DOOM on it and maybe a couple other things. It's really only a novelty thing, but I also really like the 32-bit athletic and there's something about Sega cartridges that I loveBlu wrote:I have a fantastic 32X that I do not use.

Blackthorne, Star Trek (a nicer looking version of the SNES game), and also MK2 are solid releases on it, just not unique.

Oh among my Sega CD stuff, I remember I had an original long box version of Night Trap. It was a little worn (I did buy secondhand), but I feel like I'd appreciate it better now.

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
The limited version by Limited Run is modeled after the original Sega CD box, so if you buy it, put it on your shelf and squint, you can still appreciate it....

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
I actually like the original box art a lot better. More classic feeling and a bit less sleezy (?)Michi wrote:The limited version by Limited Run is modeled after the original Sega CD box, so if you buy it, put it on your shelf and squint, you can still appreciate it....

With the Limited Run art, I feel like my wife would give me a weird look
I also don't have a PS4

Re: What do you regret selling/getting rid of?
Paper Mario Thousand Year Door. I don't even remember why II sold it. Likely due to short on money and this is before it became expensive. I'd like to play the game again anyway.
Tales of Symphonia Gamecube. I don't miss the game. I didn't like it much. Just I sold it at a time it was common. I'd like to have sold it a few years ago when the price seemed to get pretty high.
