I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don't hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don't even use.

I picked up my friends switch used for 200 buckaroos. I got really into DS emulation and I went really hard on pokemon especially. I was looking forward to BDSP.

The new pokemon games were really anemic. I got some fun out of Mario Galaxy. But it just sits there now. I miss the first party piracy experience. I think also if i had had the ability to easily bring my old school mons (which i still have saved on my pc).

A lot of my wasted money also went toward games for different consoles. Played once or twice and then just sat there.

That's also why I started buying physical copies whenever possible. Sell when not interested anymore.
