Keep Zelda. It may be worth something someday. You may as well throw F-Zero in the trash, it's worthless. SNES Final Fantasy II (US version) is selling for over $400. Old games will be worth something one day, and they take up very little room.

I'd keep the real games, they're always better. On the 3DS it's a lame digital copy, and with Nintendo you have no ownership rights at all to them and no means to back it up, also if the system breaks you lose the games unless you play the Nintendo extortion and sit n' wait game of paying an out of warranty fee and getting a transfer to a remanufactured formerly used system. If your system is ever stolen, your games are gone, unless you get a sympathetic person on the phone and that's totally hit and miss. Nintendo lives in the stone age of stupidity and won't do accounts like Sony where you can just log in on another system and re-download your junk again.

That to me is more than enough motivation NOT to get rid of the real games. A couple weeks before they dropped I ended up getting a very nice deal on a AGB-101 GBA SP and it came with a CIB Mario Kart(and 2 others) and I'll use that game before the download. And a week after the drop of the freebies, I found that Fire Emblem game at the flea market for $5...I bought it and I'm using that instead. Nothing beats and original, and you also get to keep what you pay for, you're not held hostage. Eventually Nintendo will quit supporting old game downloads, and then you can kiss your titles goodbye.

You could but your not going to get much for it.
I still have Yoshi's Island for the GBA, and I won't get more then a penny for it.
no point in wasting gas money on a few GBA games.

If you're confident you'll always have the digital copies and are fine with playing them on the 3DS, go for it. Just bear in mind that Nintendo can't remove or lose your license to use your hard copies though, like they can with digital stuff on the 3DS. Minish Cap seems pretty rare over here — I'd hold on to that one at least, personally.

If you sell it at Gamestop you can get around $10 for it. If you sell it to a third party retailer you can get even more (depending).

Ebay, well, you could sell for much, much more. I've seen it up to $50. Which is more than a penny, btw.

Just for you.

indeed, never sell your games because someday you will miss them. Games are your friends, you should never desert them for the sake of money

Selling used games to a store is generally a bad idea, as they will give you next to nothing for it. eBay is where the real money is - collectors will pay decent money to get their hands on an out-of-print game, especially if it is complete (with the original box, manual, and all other bits such as the paper inserts).

I know I personally paid about $40 Australian for a complete copy of Minish Cap.

I used to have a blog link here. I'll put it back up when the blog has something to read.
