Selling a game (as seen through the eyes of a 2 year old)

I've had my Dig Dug for 6 years and as much as I love it, it gets played once or twice a month. The rest of the time it sits there looking pathetic with the power off. So I decided to E-bay it ($220, not thrilled on the price but not upset either). The guy comes and picks it up, goes off without a hitch. Afterward, my daughter (now 2.5 years old) comes downstairs from her nap. She looks at the spot where the Dig Dug was and with her arm outstretched, points a finger and says as innocent as can be "Where's Doug?" It was extremely cute but it was at that point that it sunk in that it was really gone. I don't regret it but I guess I didn't think that she would notice.

The little ones are precious. :)
 
I dig Doug.

Do you have a multi yet? Take the money and tell her you're going to buy/put it towards a multi, then Doug can still be around, with a bunch of friends! :D
 
I'm not big on the Multi thing. I can still play it in MAME on my 'puter if I really want to.
