Heaven forfend we want the little pieces of plastic and silicon to have a life after we get bored of them.

There is no issue with selling them. The issue is with cloning the games, selling them, and then keep playing them, which is basically pirating the content.

Nintendo still shouldn't ban the buyers, but this isn't about not allowing resale after you have played or gotten bored of the game.
