Have you ever sold one of your consoles and/or handhelds in order to buy a new one?

[Yuya Sakaki 5,212]

Sold PS1 to get PS2. That's it.

 

Peace!

[Jake 1,488]

Never sold anything ever. I've always had enough money to buy a console without the need to sell.

[WakelessDream 2,282]

Yes I have:

 

Sold my DS (the fat one) for a DS Lite

Sold my Xbox 360 as money to put towards my PS4

Sold my limited edition Ocarina of Time 3DS to get the Majora's Mask themed New 3DS

 

And I think that's about it. 

[Gamerazor247 877]

Nah, my mom says I should if I REALLY want something but no thanks. I'm fine keeping all my consoles, even my broken PS3 and 3DS '3'

[Movies798 1,359]

Yeah my broken PSP for another PSP.

[Ultimus Grid 546]

Yes, if you count trading in a PS2 for a PS3.

Nope, never have and probably never will. My consoles and handhelds hold too much sentimental value. 

[Shulk 8,623]

No. I still have uses for my old systems, and a lot of them are too old to be worth much, anyway.

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

The only console I've ever done away with is my Nintendo DS Lite.  When the Nintendo 3DS came out, I traded in my DS Lite so that I could get the 3DS cheaper, and as a result, I have my beloved 3DS, which has been with me for about 4 years, I'd say!

 

But yeah, that's the only time I've ever done something like that.  I still have my PS2, PSP, PS3, Game Boy Advance SP and Nintendo Wii! No way in hell I'm going to get rid of those!

[Veemon 1,540]

Never have. I even have my dad's old Dreamcast lying somewhere in the attic.

[Philip Ellwell 5,487]

I don't sell my consoles or handhelds for ANY reason. 

[Exilra 393]

Nope. Never sold any of my old consoles. They hold a lot of sentimental value to me. My parents want me to sell them, though.

[Geralt 4,874]

If trading a broken pre-owned one in for a brand new one counts as such then yes. o.o

[hatok 6,413]

I've worked all of my consoles to breaking

[BlankShell 638]

Not that I can recall, no! I tend to keep my consoles around until they wear out completely, and by then there's not much point in reselling them (at least, it's not worth my time to sell them as scrap), or trading up for such little value.

 

Thus far I think the only consoles I have ever out-and-out replaced are the PSP, because I somehow bricked my first one, and my GBA SP, because I somehow lost my first one.

[Rinax 473]

Nope. As long as they still work, I ain't giving them away or throwing them out (er, I mean, recycling them).

[Isaix 924]

No I never sold any of my consoles or games for that matter to get new ones

[Soravids 1,056]

Sold my DS for money toward a 3DS since 3DS plays DS games.

[SorRik 186]

Nope have't

[Kittenz 4,281]

Nope

Sold my Sega Console and SNES to buy PS1.

[Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) 3,859]

I've never sold a console in order to buy another one. I haven't sold any console at all, but I have lent or given a console that I don't use to a friend. I evoid getting rid of anything I have unless I want to give it to someone who I think deserves it, but I never sell anything.

[SpideyGaming 15]

Never sold a console, but my friends and I did smash up my PS1 a few years ago

[Weedanort 8,786]

I sold my PSP to buy a DSi
