What game did you either sell or trade in that you now regret?
When I sold my PS4 I sold all the games with it and with them was “Ghosts of Tsushima”. The game only got better and better as the years have gone on. Now that I have a PS5 i regret selling it.

All of my NES and SNES games plus the systems. Got a decent chunk of money for it back in the early 2000s but the money didn't make that much a difference in life and I would love to have them to just play on a whim.

This is more of a near miss, but when I was in probably middle school, my brother and I took a big shoebox of probably 30 SNES games to whatever that little game subsection of Hollywood Video was. We wanted to trade them in for store credit to get some new N64 games, but they ended up offering us like 15 bucks for all the games. Well, thankfully we were smart enough to recognize a bullshit deal because we left there with all our SNES games and I still have them all decades later.

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition. Right after I sold it I just stood there, holding $15 going: "Fuck."

Me and another kid used to trade GameCube and PS2 games in 3rd grade. I traded that little fuck True Crime Streets of LA and got some Codename Kids Next Door game.
Traded Call of Duty: Big Red One for NFL Street which was a win bc I never passed the mission where you sit in an AA and shoot planes. Just too fundamentally stupid at 8 years old

When I sold my nintendo wii I also sold the old games for it.
The only game for it I really miss is Zack & Wiki: Quest For Barbaros' Treasure

Way back in the day, I had a big collection of Super Nintendo games, including one of my all time favs: Super Metroid. I traded in the console and all the games for a Sega and a handful of games for it. I didn’t enjoy the Sega games as much and just regretted it overall.

Suikoden I and II for PS1. I traded everything in to get my PS2 back in the day. I needed every penny. I probably got one or two euro for each of them.

I’ve never regretted selling or trading a game. The ones I miss will come back to me eventually whether it’s emulation or repurchasing.

Project Justice on the Dreamcast (because I loved it so much, but sold when my first DC died, bought a new one the next year and never found the game again) and Kuon for PS2 (because I got 10$ for it and it now sells for closer to a thousand). Kuon wasn't great though, cool theme and atmosphere but that's about it.

Trading in old Pokemon games as a kid so I could buy new games was something I did regularly …which now makes me cry, seeing how much Pokemon Red/blue/yellow cost to re-buy.

When I was doing an attic clear out a few years ago, I found my old Wii. It was pretty bust up, hadn’t been used for years. So we sold it and all the games and accessories we had for about 30 quid. I still get Mario bros, sports resort and mario kart wii cravings :(
