SO who's kept there's and who hasn't?

We are not going through any pain we are enjoying playing the games!
Actually, the main problem is that I can;t abandon any of my current consoles, even the Saturn. It's not even that I get time to play them very often, just that there are at least a couple of games on each system that I like playing.
The next console to go will be my PSX, but one of these days it will get replaced by a PS2 (maybe when they finally go down in price again) which is why I'm keeping most of my games, even though I won't have the console.
I couldn't get rid of my N64 with all the games I have for it, in the same way that I couldn't get rid of my DC or Saturn. I did part-ex my GBC for a game the other week, but then I have a GBA anyway, so that doesn't count.
I still play No Mercy, nearly half a year after it was released. I'm hoping to get Exitebike if I can ever muster the money together. Conker was amazing, if a little short lived, and Majoras Mask is still incomplete. Banjo-Tooie is just Donkey Kong+, although the multiplayer is a laugh.
I spose I should probably get a DC to tide me over until I can afford a Gamecube. But that would involve money, something that eludes me.
That's the beauty of Sony making the PS2 backwards compatible. It means PS2 owners don't have the heartbreak N64 and DC owners are going through.
Come to think of it, does anyonr know where I can get hold of a NES with both the Zelda games?
So much I've missed out on.....
At the mo' the onlly games that I've got that I will definately go back to are the Zelda games, but there are quite a few that I intend to pick up when the prices drop to a suitable level.
I did this with my SNES and now I can buy classic SNES titles (UN Squadron, DKC, Metroid, etc) for as little as £2!!!
Admittedly the N64 has got a while to go before the games I'm after drop to those prices but I've got plenty of other games to play on my 3 consoles whilst I wait!
