I sold mine. I regret that i also sold the extra controller and memory card, i didnt know thatthey areneeded to play GC games on Wii. I'm not getting those back, though. I'd rather spend on Wii games now. :D

I keep all my old systems.

I thought about selling my GC, because the Wii is directly BC with GC games, but I decided that I wouldn't get enough money from it to be worth the effort.

Granted I've only had my Wii for a week, I'm not getting rid of my Cube. One main reason is that some games don't play while connected with the component cables (Megaman X Collection). So I moved my Cube upstairs and put it back on a TV using S-Video.

I still have mine. My wife got it for me for Christmas when it was new, so I'd feel guilty selling it even now...besides, I have it in our bedroom upstairs and there's games I have on it that my daughter can enjoy, and I still plan on playing again down the road.

Besides, depreciation doesn't make it worth it for me to part with.

Yeah I still have mine. It don't think it would be possible to sell mine anyway. If I did, it would come with no controllers, no games, and no memory cards. Just the system and some wires. Uhm...maybe I'd get a couple of dollars? :P

I keep all my old consoles. I like looking at them and remembering the good times. Though I have to admit that unlike my other consoles I haven't touched my GC after I bought the Wii because of backwards compatibility.

Yes, it does keep some of the wear and tear down on the Wii for me. I didn't buy separate memory cards and controllers, so it's easier to keep the GC around without having to swap controllers.

You better believe I kept my Gamecube, three memory cards, GBA/GC cables, and all SEVEN controllers that still work :lol: (one wireless, five regular, and a third party one). Two of the controllers were given to me by people who sold their cubes last gen. then I bought a wireless one later. I like being able to load up Smash and other games quickly without the wiimote fuss :? I usually take my gamecube when go away from home and leave the Wii. [spoiler] I love my cube :D [/spoiler]

I definitaly do and I'll get rid of it when theAC adapter dies. i like it because I can skip the Wii's channel selection screens and go right to the game.
