I was hoping to get a slim ps3 soon, and I was wondering if I should sell it or hold on to it (for the sake of its potential market value later on).
Should I hang on to 60gb PS3?

And by 60gb, I do mean the more expensive launch model that is fully backwards compatible with PS2 games.

I have mine and it works perfectly. It is now about 6 years old so just remember to keep it clean, apply new thermal paste and you should be good to go!

[quote name='Komentra']I would definitely keep it for the PS2 backwards compatibility however I'd upgrade the HDD.[/QUOTE]
I have already upgraded the HDD.
Thing is, I am hoping to get a super slim this Black Friday for the sake of less power consumption. Given my habits of accidentally leaving on game consoles for 24+ hours, I figure it may pay off in the long run.
Also, I am trying to get a consensus if this model's second hand value has the potential of going up in the future. If yes, then I will probably store it away so I stop wearing it down any further. If not, then I would rather sell it (yes, I know that sounds like blasphemy to some) since I would rather use my PS2 slim for, again, power consumption purposes.
All in all, thanks for the advice so far!

Sometimes I lay awake at night, staring at my ceiling and wonder if the person I sold my phat 60 to is treating it right. I hold myself tightly and eventually fall asleep.
Eh, either or. I still have a bunch of PS2 games, but I touch them and my old PS2 about twice a year.

Why get a Slim if its working properly? just buy new 1tb HDD only $100 or can get 500gb for like $50 or decent size SSD which are little more expensive but faster loading when installed games on it.
