Sell or keep 2600 heavy sixer woodgrain? (sh.itjust.works)

So I have a 2600, tons of controllers and games etc. But I hardly ever use it since I have a 7800 that can use the same games and controllers. I feel like id regret selling, but I have so many systems.

Worth holding onto? They dont seem to sell for much. I have the space for it but I also would like to see someone else enjoy it..

A tiny number of original releases don't run properly or at all on some 2600 Juniors or 7800s, due to a reliance on quirks that were changed in later versions of the graphics chip. Probably not a major issue for classic collecting, but if you're interested in modern homebrew, it could be worth considering.
