I too made the mistake of getting rid of some NES games long ago. Indeed, when I got my SNES one Christmas, I gave my NES to my little siblings (only had two at the time), because I "didn't need that any more". Later on, I realized I DID. Eventually, I got back all my old NES games for the price of me making them oatmeal. (They were... not good with trading...) I bought another NES later on, as well as all the accessories I could want, including ROB, but excepting the running pad, AND with fully intact instructions, and 3 games, for $15.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
