    Am I Insane? Trading in my XBOX???

    See, here's the thing...right now, at home...all of my videogame time is taken up by Out of the Park 5 and MVP Baseball on my PC. The only games I have for my XBOX are WSB2K3 and NCAA Football 2003. I desperately want a Game Boy Advance SP and Zelda: A Link to the Pask, ASB 2004, Golden Sun, and maybe Dragon Warriors III. The reason the Game Boy Advance SP is so intriguing, is because I work as a 911 dispatcher on the graveyard shift and am bored out of my mind. A little GBA SP with a few games would go a LONG way to cure me of some boredom. Not having the funds for a GBA SP and a few games, I'm considering trading in my XBOX for now. I know I'll lose about $100 on the deal, but to me it's almost worth it. The next game I'm even remotely interested in for XBOX is NCAA Football 2004 and one of the pro games when they are out in August. So, am I crazy for wanting to do this? BDoughty, I know you like your GBA SP, what games do you have? Anyone who is pleased with their GBA SP, let me know what your impressions are and what games you like! There are a number of games coming out that I am interested in as well. Thanks OS dudes....

        I think it sounds like you have some legitimate reasons for wanting to sell it and it would make sense, but you'll also want to buy a new one in a few months. I don't know how long it would take for you to save the money for a gameboy advance, but If I were you I'd hold onto the Xbox and wait to save the funds to buy a GBA SP. Xbox's price might be lower by the time you wanna buy a new one, but you'd still end up losing out on some money in the deal if you traded it in.

            yeah you're, pretty much, crazy!

            My advice, save up, by SP later. I wanted to trade my PS2 for a Gamecube and Zelda and Mario Sunshine. I'm glad I didn't because after seeing The Making of Def Jam Vendetta on MTV last nite. I gotta pick up this game. It's not on XBOX. I'm going to keep it and get my Cube after E3 when there should be a price drop.

                Def Jam is on the Cube as well, and I actually think it plays better on the Cube. That's the version I got.

                    I know but I still just didn't want to give up the PS2. I just couldn't see the logic in trading a PS2 for a Gamecube.

                        Can you find enough money to just get the SP and one game for the time being, instead of getting the SP and a few games?
