This is exactly why I don't sell or give away my games unless I am 100% sure I'll never want to play the game again (which is a rare occasion).
I learned my lesson when I upgraded to the original playstation. My younger cousins didn't own any videogames at the time, so when I got the ps one for christmas I called them up and asked if they'd like to borrow my genesis, 32x and sega cd (they wanted the snes but I was smarter then that). Anyways, fast forward a couple years, my aunt buys my cousins a gamecube. No big deal, I find out and call her up to see if I could retrieve my massive sega collection. No dice, turns out she sold the whole set, including all my games, at a garage sale, forgetting it was mine. What do I get in return? The $20 she earned selling it. /massive facepalm

Yeah I weep to this very day about how I sold my SNES and all the games with it. The only thing that makes me sad is that Chrono Trigger was one of them *sigh*
Nostalgia is the reason I bought all three volumes of both Pinky and The Brain and Animaniacs on DVD. But it was totally worth it...
I also keep all my stuff to myself, the result is that I don't have to get too much stuff on VC or so since I've still got the original :-)
I found my copy of Pokemon Yellow in my N64's old transfer pak a few days ago. Now I need to find the GBC to go with it. The gold for me would be a Pocket though as that was my first Gameboy.
nostalgia is a hell of a thing sometimes. recently i used some of my DMC4 money to buy a copy of Project Justice from my work for $30. For those not in the know, Project Justice is the Dreamcast sequel to the PSX fighting game Rival Schools (one of the most under-rated fighting games ever). Needless to say i broke out the old DC and made a night out of slapping some schoolgirls around with a bamboo sword =)
