No selling, throwing out. I threw out a ton of stuff that didn't work. It was just going to be a hassle if I ever move out of this place - lord knows it was a hassle moving it in.

If it doesn't work, it goes in the bin. Thankfully that only applied to a small portion of my stuff. Sega Master System and games, old Megadrive, Famicom Ripoff, and so on.

I also traded in a bunch of this-gen games, too. First time I've ever done it. It was for stuff that made sense though - I sold Viva Pinata 1 after playing Viva Pinata 2 and realizing its superiority. Also, EB Games had a crazy $25-for-each DS game extravaganza. I sold off Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and NSMB for $75 alone, not to mention others. It was awesome.

Anyways, if you're not sentimental and want to show off on the internet about it, more power to you. I personally like taking the trip down memory lane with all my stuff. Playing the games on the controllers that they were meant to be played on. I would never give up Mario Golf 64 and my N64 - the summer-vacation nostalgia is intoxicating to me.
