Has anyone else ever traded in a game, or sold or whatever but don't own it anymore, any games that they regret and really wish they could play again. the main one for me is Mario Strikers Charged, but i do miss Super Mario Galaxy/Super Mario Bros Wii (but they are more that i think those 2 + SMG2 would make a neat trilogy, and Twilight Princess.

Conversely, has anyone not traded in a game because they think it may become worth something over time, not because they particularly like it or see yourself playing it again. The closest i have here is Metroid Prime Trilogy, but since I haven't played all the way through it, it doesn't count.

I dont trade in. They tend to rip you off and I want a full collection when Im 90

Understandable, but I didn't mean specifically trade-in at gamestop or wherever, but that or selling at a yard sale, ebay, amazon, or just gave away, but any game which you don't have and you would have to re-purchase to be able to play it again, But since you are looking for a full collection, i doubt any of these are applicable to you.
I don't really know the game Kingdom Hearts 258/2, what is that like?

My Nintendo 64 and Rare games (esp. Diddy Kong Racing). Wish I still had them.

I pretty much compulsively keep my games. I am considering unloading my Genesis/Game Gear at some point. Pretty much any game I'll want to keep is on VC (or in the GG's case will be on 3DS VC). I don't know if I'll ever be able to bring myself to do it. Too many memories.

I am way too lazy to think of something clever.

I don't really regret trading any of my Wii games. I do miss not having Mario Kart Double Dash though. At the time I thought the handling was a big departure from the N64 version. Not bad in any way, but it had a differen tfell to it. And there was no jump. But with hindsight, that's what set it apart.

Also, I regret trading games because if I do decide to buy something I once owned again, I know it probably won't be in the perfect condition I keep my games in.

I regretted trading away Super Mario 64 DS so much that I actually bought it again. O_O I also kind of regret trading away Partners in Time, but, I know if I hadn't traded it away, I would have been bored with it because the only thing left to do after completing the game is to defeat the final boss over and over again.

If you add me, I need to at least know you or I won't add you back.

One of the more recent games I regretted trading ages ago was Red Dead Redemption. I was sick of the GTA-style games, and traded it in shortly after buying it when it was new. However, after watching True Grit and a bunch of other Westerns, I realized how much I loved the genre lol. Went back out and bought RDR again, and plowed through it and realized it starts slow, but was actually a great game! Now that I have beaten it, I want to download that Undead Nightmare DLC.

I sold Zack and Wiki after I beat it. I figured that the game wouldn't be fun to play through again, since I already solved all of the puzzles. Also, I really hated the last level, which made me forget how great the rest of the game was.

That was a few years ago, and now, every time I see a screenshot of Zack and Wiki, I wish I still had it. So, I ordered another copy for $10. I hope that I forgot the solutions to the puzzles!

The Megaman X collection. I needed the money at the time to pay of some bills since I just got laid off from my job. I didnt play it much and really only bought it cause I enjoyed the original Megaman series and wanted to give the X series another shot. Now that I want to play it again It is sooooo hard to find. Also I regretted trading in my Tekkens which I have re bought since. But probably the thing I regretted the most was trading in my N64 for the Game Cube. While the Game Cube was a good system I wasnt able to play any of my favorite N64 games like GoldenEye, Killer Instinct Gold and Mario Kart 64. I was just able to recently get another N64 system but that was 10 years too long. Since than I never trade in my systems (I just pack them away in storage if I am not going to play them).

As far as games go that I refuse to trade in I have several of them. I refused to trade in my copy of the SNES version of Final Fantasy III since I have a copy that contains the Realm draw glitch that they fixed on newer copies. Another one I refuse to trade in or sell is my SNES copy of Earthbound (geee I wonder why). The last one that comes to my mind that I wont trade/sell is my copy of Castlevania: SotN on PSone. Cause that game can be hard to find and expensive to rebuy and I dont own a PS3 so I cant get it that way.

I once traded in SSBM but realized how dumb that was very quickly and bought another copy.

PM:TTYD, Rogue Squadron 2, Super Monkey Ball, SSX3, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3/4, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Billy Hatcher, every game boy color game I owned, Harmony of Dissonance, Astro Boy: Omega Factor, Advance Wars 1 and 2

I was clearly an idiot in the past.

I have only traded in 4 games. I regret 3 of them: Marvel ultimate alliance, Metroid Zero mission and the Pac man collection. The other game I traded in was Nintendogs, I don't really miss that one.
