Do you keep your games or trade after finishing them?

[rpgseeker]

For certain games, like rpgs, yeah I keep them. For puzzle games like Professor Layton, I have considered keeping them, but eventually gave in and traded them away.

I am a pack rat, rarely will I selll or trade games.

[Eusis]

If they still hold good value and I feel like I won't replay them for one reason or another, then I will. Other M and Final Fantasy XIII were particularly good for this.

[Yggdrasil]

I sold the ones I know I will never play again or didn't enjoyed. Is a bit hard sometimes to sell RPGs since you always develop some kind of connection with those.

Chances are if I finished them, it's probably because I liked it a lot, so I usually keep them. Only exceptions were Meteos, Metroid Prime: Hunters, and Kirby 64.

Me too. I also keep them around to lend to other people (mostly my sister, brother and best friend). I borrow entertainment from them too.

I did sell my Super Nintendo and some other retro stuff eventually. I felt kinda bad about having nice stuff like that and rarely playing with it. Nostalgia is nice but it shouldn't clutter up several shelves! I was smart enough to sell everything before batteries started dying and the prices of certain games dropped because of rereleases. With the money I was able to buy all the books I needed for my first year of college.

Keep them. Always.

[Yoda]

I keep em now. Too many times I have regretted trade ins and the like for paltry returns.

I doubt 15 years from now I'll want to play DA2 again like I wish I could play some SNES games, but you never know.

[Fadedsun]

My apartment is starting to run low on space, so I've taken to getting rid of certain games I know I'll never play again and keeping my favorites.

[Dice]

Depends on the price people ask.

But it's definitely case by case, some games you know what you want to play again.

I do love having a Wii to replay classics as well (only wish more were there).

[Vanguard]

If I can get some functionality at a later date (Pokemon), I'll keep them. Beyond that, everything has a price.

[Adapheon]

I've traded in two games in my life. Resident Evil DS and Lunar Dragon Song, both because I was offended that I owned them. I do tend to get around this argument by never finishing a game though.

[Wild Armor]

I sell em. I'm not concerned with product value or attachment. While I do enjoy playing video games, they hold little value outside of their entertainment medium other than the story and music within. If I really liked a soundtrack or story, I'll keep the game, but that's a blue moon occurrence. There's 3 games I own I wouldn't sell because of simply enjoying the soundtrack and don't want to throw down $60 for the ost.

But you could probably guess that I sold my video games by lurking in The Bazaar.

[Dincrest]

Some games I will never part with, like Anachronox or Chrono Trigger.  Others, no problem.  Whether I trade them at a game shop, sell them on ebay or RPGFan's bazaar, or swap them with other staff members, I'd rather a game be played than sit on my shelf collecting dust. 

[MeshGearFox]

I collect games and I regret selling the very few that I have sold.
