I don't know what system it was, but I remember this little 9 year olds' birthday was coming up so I gave him one of my systems, but I was feeling so generous at that time that I also decided to give him my Neo Geo Pocket with Sonic, and Metal Slug. Now, that system wasn't that great, nor is it expensive to buy now, but I just wish I had it sitting here protected because when I bought it it was in like-new condition. No scratches, perfect paint, no gunk in the joystick or buttons. I assume it's destroyed, or thrown out, or sold away by now :(
Also, long time ago I had a Genesis/NES which my mom sold when I was around 6 because we had a SNES already, and had just gotten a N64 that Christmas. Didn't realize how much I'd miss it at the time, but I really wish I had both now. In fact a few years ago I did buy myself a Genesis, but this was before I had a debit card, so I couldn't shop online at all, so that made finding games really hard, so I sold the system at a yard sale for maybe $5, and gave away around 10 games with it for free. I believe the person who bought it ran a charity home for kids, or was a foster parent, or something, so I didn't mind at all giving it all away.
Someday soon though! I will own another NES (hopefully toploader), a Sega Genesis, and I'd really like to replace my SNES! :D
