What do you guys tend to do with old games that you don't play anymore (mainly physical copies)? Do you give it away, sell them, or just keep them at your place?

I keep all of my old games, for the most part. I'm a bit of a collector so I like having them to go back to. I still have a lot of my old systems, so I like to have the old games around for when I feel nostalgic. I can go back and play them again. I know I could easily just download an emulator or something, but it just isn't the same.

If I truly have no desire I sell it off, otherwise I keep them for some reason or another

Yeah, I don't use my PlayStation 4 at all anymore and I feel like I should sell it. But so far I haven't been successful with that task. I just feel bad getting rid of it.

I would still hold onto it, never know when a game will release you may want to try.

I hold on to my older games. I know physical copies and consoles won't last forever, but there are still plenty of older games that have never gotten ported to newer consoles or PC and I wouldn't be able to play them again if I got rid of them.

I tend to hold on to my old games. If I ever sell them they are usually sold with the whole console and accessories.

I try to hold onto the old games as much as possible. But the thing is that often the old games and games of various types don't go much unless there are ebay like shops to sell. So eventually most of the things are meant to be sold.

I gave a few away to charity, but I've kept hold of most of them... too much sentimental value, even if they're no longer playable.

PS5 is backwards compatible so that's not an issue thankfully. I ended up selling it to CEX for a £120 voucher. I could probably have got a bit more by selling privately but I just couldn't be bothered dealing with the hassle.

I think I may keep some of the android games and the switch games. I think that would be a good thing to sell them off the ebay and similar services. I know many would want to make use of such services.

Forgot about a spare PS4 controller I had, tried to sell it and CEX just returned it to me. No idea why because it works but I guess I'll have to sell it privately which I am not looking forward to.
