The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (got too frustrating; Spirit Tracks is better)
Brain Age (not enough variety and poor handwriting recognition)
Pokemon: Diamond Version (wanted to have fewer Pokemon games; Soul Silver is more nostalgic)
Kirby Super Star Ultra (got too frustrating; Amazing Mirror is better)
Kirby Squeak Squad (got too frustrating; Amazing Mirror is better)
Wario: Master of Disguise (got too confusing; Wario Land 4 is better)
Sonic Rush (Classics Collection is better)
Spyro: Shadow Legacy (just plain awful)
Star Fox Command (controls are awful)
Yoshi's Island DS (got the GBA version via Ambassador Program)
Mario & Luigi: Partners In Time (got really annoying)

You do realize that Yoshi's Island DS is a completely different game than the SNES and GBA ones, right?

Anyways, I no longer own Wario: Master in Disguise, the three Pokemon Ranger games, and Warioware D.I.Y.

None because trading is all too often a rip off so I still have all the DS games I ever bought.

  • Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (so good that I never wanted to play it again :D)
  • Scribblenauts (seriously the most fundamentally broken game that I have ever played)
  • Sonic Rush (I like playing games that the player can actually participate in)
  • Pokemon Diamond and Platinum Versions (the Action Replay ruined Pokemon for me)
  • Mario Kart DS (loved it, but I needed cash and foolishly thought that 7 would be better)
  • Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box (my OCD and Puzzle Agent kept me from finishing)
  • Kirby: Squeak Squad (100%ed it within 2 days, plus Kirby's been in better games)
  • Spectrobes (believe me when I say this was absolutely awful, traded it for K:SS lol)
  • Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem (uninspired design, I own MvDK:MMA!)
  • Pokemon Ranger and possibly its sequels (it's a Pokemon spin-off)
  • Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and possibly its sequels (it's a Pokemon spin-off)
  • Phantasy Star 0 (one of the worst games ever, right up there with Scribblenauts)

I'm sure I've traded in a ton more than that, will update as I remember them.

Yes, but I prefer the original over the sequel. Has more charm to it.

I don't sell many games anymore as the 5 bucks usually isn't worth it.

That being said
-Yoshi's Island DS: this game can just go die. Ear bleeding Baby Peach and all.
-Magical Starsign: Or, how to make the least interesting JRPG possible.
-Rayman 2 DS: Remember when 3D platformers on DS seemed like a good idea? Yeah, me neither.
-Mr. Driller: Drill Spirits: Ok puzzle game but nothing great. I sold it because I dunno.
-Phantom Hourglass: Spirit Tracks made this game's existance almost as worthless as the first version of a Capcom fighting game.

Some that I can remember:

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (The game just became me running around town selling drugs....what's the point, and not a good message)
Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time (The weakest of the Mario and Luigi games and I knew I would never play it again, but still regret selling it)
Metroid Prime Hunters (Worst single player Metroid ever, stopped playing it; never got to enjoy the multiplayer because I couldn't play it online and none of my friends had it; still I regret selling it since it's Metroid)
Brain Age ( got tedious)

You could make a killing if you sell them on eBay, you know. I'm saving my lesser games for eBay lots. :)

Oh c'mon, at least Phantasy Star 0 isn't completely broken. That'd be like me comparing Star Ocean 3 to Superman 64. No matter how much I hate it, that comparison just won't work.

Everyone sold some pretty good games, like Yoshi's Island DS and Mario Kart DS. Why? :(

Anyways, I think I only ever sold Brain Age, but then my cousin was getting rid of DS games so I ended up with it again :p

It's not uncommon for people to sell good games they're never going to play again. I do it quite a bit, and I can't say I've regretted it.
