I've purchased like less than 10 (physical) video games in the past decade.
Pokemon Y Monster Hunter Portable something or other Pokemon Alpha Sapphire The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 2 Tales of Graces f Pokemon SwSh double pack (counts as 2 games I guess) 8 games in 10 years. Also 3 consoles (2DS, PS3, Switch). Why would I sell any of them? To be honest, 2 of them weren't available on PC at the time of their purchase, 1 I got only because I bought a used PS3 and the others are locked by Nintendo's proprietary malware.
I'd love to sell some of my PC games but that would destroy those dank profit margins on PC.
Is Gamestop the only place in existence that buys games in your area? Because there's ebay, there's Amazon, there's a physical store near me called 2nd & Charles, there's another local game store called Level 7 Games, etc.
It's called fun. Imagine that, wanting to have a fun discussion for once on this message board that wasn't bogged down into politics or what movies sucks over which movie, etc. What is so wrong with that?
Yeah, there are a few I do regret selling. Ninja Gaiden Trilogy, Castlevania Bloodlines, Castlevania Lament of Innocence, most of my PS1 games, but oh well.
Yeah, it is becoming as expensive as California. One Bedroom apartments these days cost anyway from $1100-1400 and that's in shitty neighborhoods. The 2 bedroom apartment my wife and I have is $1700 and that rate is only because we moved in in 2012. The rate today for moving in for the first time is $2200. Ever since they legalized pot here the costs have sky rocketed due to how many bums moved here.
Bums by definition have no money to move with. ---
