Should I sell my NES collection of 300 games and various accessories?

I have been debating this topic with myself for a long time, especially since most NES games can be downloaded for use on the Wii or other game consoles. Do I really need to keep the original hard cartridges? All together, including copies, I have about 300 NES games. I even have some complete with original box and manuals.

As for accessories I have the NES Advantage, NES Four Score, Orange light gun and gray light guns, several normal controlers and 3 actual working NES consoles. I refurbished them with new 72 pin connections.

I wonder how much I would actually get for a collection like this? I have many rare games and complete sets of games. For example: Lolo I, II, III andBases Loaded I, II, III, IV and Dragon Warrior I, II, II, IV (Complete with boxes!) and Adventure Island I, II, III. Some rare games are: Captain Comic, Contra Force, Dusty Diamond All-Star Softball, North & South, Fire N Ice and also a couple of those black cartridge bible games. I am sure I have more but I can't think of any right now.

What is the gerneral opinion? I am open to suggestions...

Do you play any of the Nes games anymore and if you have favorites keep those and get rid of the rest unless you are a collecor.

I have a few that I wouldnt mind keeping for sentimental value and can sell the rest. I don't play them anymore and they are all stored in boxes.

Don't sell your entire collection. You will regret it later. If you are concerned about space just sell off you crappy nes games that you never play.

Personally, I used to sell lots of games which I had already played and regreted it later since I wanted someday to play them over again (lots of GBA games). Since then, I've been keeping all the games I get.

So if I were you, I would not commit the same error as I did and I would keep those games. Of course you'd get some cash, but in the end it's not worth it to sell your NES collection.

Anyway, that's my personal opinion.

I wouldn't sell all of them because you'll wish you didn't later.
