longest game you have ever kept.

[Psyfira]

I've never traded stuff in, the oldest game I have is Treasure Island Dizzy for the Atari ST. Not really sure why I've kept it, I don't even have anything it'll run on (assuming the disc's contents survived this long)

 

[thaddius]

I have never traded in a game. Perish the thought!

 

[Taleweaver]

When my original gameboy broke, I traded all my games to friends & school mates (can't even remember what for). Except one: partially because of nostalgia, mostly because nobody wanted it:

Kirby's pinball land.

It's possible I still have that cartridge (though I have nothing to play it with), but I'm not sure. If not, then my oldest game is either Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (on floppy disks!) or command & conquer (the very first game).

 

[astrangeone]

My oldest game?

Probably Kirby's Dreamland for the original Gameboy.

First game I've ever beat. Best game ever.

(I'm not counting the copy of Tetris for the GB - because my original copy got stolen, and I ended up getting a replacement copy from my mom's insurance.)

 

[ZAFDeltaForce]

Bare Knuckle 3 for the Sega Genesis

 

[h8uthemost]

I personally think trading in/selling games are for the lame. I have games in my physical collection dating back to the 80's. And whether they sucked or not, I kept them.

Bunch of lamers in this thread...

EDIT: You lamers, don't get your panties in a wad. I'm only kidding.

(actually, I'm not, I think you guys suck)

I think my oldest game is a Game&Watch for two players (Boxing game, still working).

do you want to sell, i'd buy for any price

 

[DragorianSword]

I think I have Harry Potter and the Philospher's Stone for GBC the longest. Really fun game actually.
It would have been Pokémon Blue but I lost that one.

I actually trade a lot of my games, especially those for Wii and DS.
Don't have the money to afford all those games.

 

[pubert09]

I still have a box of genesis games.

No, sorry
I already have regrets to have been forced to sell my NES when I was young to someone who certainly destroyed it in less than a month (my cousins ). I wished I had kept all my consoles, I'm nostalgic and a collector.

 

[Langin]

Ehm Super Mario World for the Gameboy Advance. ^^

One of my last games I own as ex-gamer. It is still one of the best and most deep games I ever played.

 

[the_randomizer]

The oldest game I own is either Bart's Nightmare or Terminator 2: The Arcade Game for the Super Nintendo. Got them back in 1993 and to my knowledge, they still work to this day.

Hey, I have that game as well. It was one of my first GBC games, probably only second to Top Gun: Firestorm. I think it was my first ever RPG and possibly the first game I finished.
The only game I ever traded was Medabots RPG Rokusho Version, I think. I traded it with some dude I met when we were on a holiday. I got The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap in return, so it wasn't a bad deal, but still... I liked that game. I'm not sure how long I had it before I traded it, but it must've been a pretty long time.

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

Over the years I've always bought consoles late. (case in point, my first 360 was bought last year)
And back when I was young (yes, I was young once) there was nowhere apart from pawn shops to trade in games.
And then the games weren't worth much since they were "old" by the time I played them.
So I've still got most of the games I ever owned and liked, including thirty titles for the Atari 2600.
The oldest would be Combat which came with the console.

 

[frogboy]

I don't think I've ever sold or traded any of my games. That said, the game I've had the longest is... sigh.

Frogger: He's Back!

 

[thiefb0ss]

Never traded any of my games.

 

[Deleted-236924]

I still have this.
Got it in 2003.

 

[mysticwaterfall]

I've only ever traded or sold 3 games. Otherwise I still have everything dating back to the 2600.

Edit so thinking about it, I guess 29 years. We had pong too, but I think the batteries corroded when I dug it out one day and dad tossed it. Not sure though.

 

[Quietlyawesome94]

I wasn't even born when this game came out but I have an orginal copy of Tetris for the Gameboy lying around here somewhere.
