Xbox 360, ehh, I never really play it. I moved a couple months ago and I still haven't plugged it in :/
Which Console/Handheld do you regret buying?

PSP. I'm pretty sure I had that thing for maybe two weeks and gave it to my brother.
Also the Wii (but I actually don't think I bought my Wii so I didn't vote for it in the poll). The only thing I've been using it for this past year or so has been for Netflix. But I've had it for a long time, had a good time with a few games, such as Skyward Sword.

DS Lite. Bought one, the hinge snapped, bought a replacement, the bottom screen became unresponsive, bought another replacement, the hinge snapped.
Also the Xbox 360, but my dad bought that one. He bought it "because it was cheap" but there's really no games that interest anyone in the family enough to play it constantly so it just sits there collecting dust.

The Wii. I was so looking forward to it after how much I loved my Gamecube, but Nintendo let me down. 
I think my Dad used it more than I did. I spent more time on my Wii U in the first month than I spent in 7.5 years of owning a Wii. I eventually gave it away free to my best friend last week. It wasn't even worth charging for it.
My first 3DS too, I guess. Barely touched it. It was a US import. I sold to a lady in London within six months. No regrets on selling it. I didn't bother to buy a second one until AC:NL and Pok?mon X + Y were announced.

Wii U at launch. worst mistake of my life
I mean, now it's worth it to HAVE a Wii U, but the fact that I bought it full price at launch LMAO worst choice ever since there were like no games. However I did get more use out of it than others, I don't have any other consoles "modern" home consoles so I bought Darksiders II and Assassin's Creed 3 for it and used it a lot :]
otherwise not really any regrets. Since I do like my Wii U, I won't vote

PSP. My brother and I bought it at the tail end of its demise. Nobody used theirs. All he played was Smackdown VS Raw games that came out for it. The rest weren't so good. It also broke after a month.

I guess my regret would be the Xbox 360 or Xbox One. Both were gifts though so really it's not my money wasted... Not much to play besides Halo, Gears and Forza.

I don't regret getting my Wii U, but I just never use it.

The Wii U is a GREAT console. Just bad marketing and no games when it launched.

There's plenty of great games out for it!
You just might have to do a little digging and invest in a larger memory card. ._.Xbone and PS4 will definitely gather dust for a little while, I'm pretty sure 2015 is the year they both pickup steam with great multiplatform titles and first party games (not indies).

My bad, I meant the original xbox, not the new one. I haven`t bought that one yet. It goes against all my principles, but I might opt for a ps4 this round. But I`m gonna wait it out until I see enough interesting games coming out.
Can't say I regret buying my Xbox 360 since I've played a ton of great games on it and met awesome people, but as far as Microsoft and the console goes...I have a lot of issues. My Box has become a really ugly paperweight. It's almost non-functional. But I still manage to fire it up just to play the last of the Telltale series (TWD and TWAU).
I recently got a PS4. I don't like Microsoft. They just feel scummy, and after being their customer for the past 6 years, I feel it's fair that I say that. Bioshock Infinite--a great AAA game--was free on the PS3 the same week it was $40 on XBL. That says it all for me. Point is...I made the switch from Xbox to Playstation because I felt Sony catered better to gamers--like me. Xbox One has all of those (IMO) useless features that only add flash to the system.
Oh, and all the lovely PS4 exclusives
