usually classic consoles and games are only worth something if they were super-rare or obscure to begin with or if they are still sealed in the original package, unscathed by time... the 2600 doesn't come anywhere close to falling into the first category, and something tells me yours doesn't fall into the 2nd either.

I would suggest if it's still in decent condition, clean it and maybe bring it to a shop to have it refurbished. Then simply keep it for nostalgia. Like Symphony and Gu8 said, it's not worth selling if it's not a) rare and b) sealed/like new.
