I sold one console once, my Nintendo 64 when I moved from Europe to the US, I still regret it, even if it was one of my least favorite consoles. My advice to anyone who has a video game console: Do not sell it, the day will come when you regret not holding on to it.

Thanks to backwards compatibility, this is not likely. Course, you have to wait and see whether or not the next console even has b/c.

It5 is very likely. Any console will be playable through emulators, but there is something semi-religious in hooking up your ancient gaming hardware and booting up an old favourite and feel how the right moves still reside deep inside your thumbs still.

Does the average gamer know what an emulator is? I only have a vague idea. Regardless, instead of keeping an old system around who's games can be played on a newer one, they can sell it and put that money towards new games or new systems, such as the one that can play the games your old system could. Atleast to me that seems like a logical thing to do. I sure haven't regretted it, as afterall, it's the games that matter, not the system itself. I probably wont be getting rid of my PS3, DS, or Wii though, since they can play games the newer systems can't.
