For the last year, I've spent one week per month at home and haven't had
a chance to play many games. Not to mention that some of my other
hobbies and interests limits my game playing time as well.
I know though that it's been at least a year since I've played any TG
games, but I don't see it as a bad thing myself. I know that at one
point, I'll take it out and start playing one game that I haven't
finished yet to the end. Then I'll get the urge to play something else
on another system, etc.
On my last stint at home, I took out my Sega Master System and started
playing Psycho Fox...

I doubt it. A few of the rare ones might, but they'll probably go the
way of the 50cent Atari 2600 games in five to ten years.
As for myself, I'd rather keep them. I know that once I sell/trade them
I always feel the pang of regret when I get the urge to play that game
again...
