Should I sell my N64 for a PS2 because the N64 had given me happiness but I would rather like to play the PS2 than the N64 I don't know If I should get a PS2 or a Camecube?
what should I do because although the PS2 has a bulit in DVD player i like the look of the Gamecube better and If anyone has the Playstation 2 did you want instead of the PS2 want a Gamecube after you bought it a wish you waited for the GameCube to come so you could buy that.

keep your n64 n save up for a ps2 or gc!!!

think of all the money you or your parents have spent go on work it out, I've shelled out over £1300 in the last couple o years or so for my sons n64, it's not worth selling it just for a measly £70 or £80.

it's also worth keepin it for all those cheap!! games, it's bound to happen when the gc comes out, it'll be bargain bucket heaven!!!

all you gotta do , if you wanna get a higher price for your old consoles , is just to pack everything away in a box , put it somewhere dry and dust free (if there is such a place ;-))
then in 20-30 years , go onto ebay , put on the MINT condition , fully boxed , n64 or whatever , with the games either bundled in if not mint , or sold separatley if mint. Then rake in the cash !
Maybe if keep it for 60-70 years , then take it to an auction room , maybe sotherbies , then see how many of those retro stores turn up and pay a fortune for one !

like it said on sabrina the teenage witch (yes , i do watch it ;-) ) if you keep things long enough , they are worth loads , or something along those lines.

Dont sell your N64. Why? Because its a old console, and nobody really wants to buy one. If they do you would have to offer it to them pretty cheap. Keep it and save up the money. I still have my N64 and wont sell it because even though its in perfect condition e.t.c I may only get £80 for it and the 7 games, 2 pads, rumble pak, Hi-res pak and memory card.

Talking about selling consoles to family memebers...

A couple of months ago, my sister bought a brand new PSone. She didn't like it, so a couple of weeks later, I bought it off her for a tenner!

She never thought about taking it back to the shops and making up an excuse, so I offered her £10 (thinking she would decline) and she sold it to me! :D

Keep your N64. I used to own one, but I sold it, and I regret it. I also use to own a Saturn, I sold that too and regret it more than the N64.

Never sell your consoles.

Yeah, Having all 3 consoles would be very nice, but people who dont have the money (Me :o) ) then I have to make my choice wisely.. Seeing as I like the look/games of GC and the price is sooo right, then I think GC is my path.

My mate has a PS2 he lives like 1 min away, and my best mate wants an X-Box.. He said "Because it looks good" Meh, try saying that when you have to build another room just to fit it in..
