Sorry I am genuinely interested. You posted while I was typing my reply to Rol, and I had to go help someone with a problem. Thanks for the info I think that is a very good price, and will probably trade the console in next week for store credit. I just need to decide what games to buy with the money.
To answer your question why. Well I am not interested in casual fare, and Nintendo made it sadly even painfully obvious at their E3 press conference that they are not interested in developing core games for their console. Which was why I have held onto the console for so long. I wanted to keep it until I got to play games like Starfox, Pilotwings, and so forth. Now that I know they are not coming its a console without any purpose for me.
I mean I haven't played it for over a year. So you know time to give up the ghost. Hell I could even use the money for something other then games. Perhaps get some new books, movies, or I was thinking about getting a Sirius radio. At this point I would get so much more out of them.
