Xbox 360 Xbox Players Are Digging Out Their Old 360s

Last year Microsoft shrunk the character limit for Gamertags from 15 down to 12, but recently players discovered that limit doesn’t apply on Xbox 360.

In a post shared yesterday on Reddit, user Talers-Username pointed out that when you go to change your Gamertag using the Xbox 360 interface it lets you make on up to 15 characters long. This is to bypass the newer 12 character limit and get it onto the latest gaming systems.

I wonder would the price of used Xbox 360 be more expensive from people who want to buy one to change their Gamertag.

there could be an uptick in 360 prices.

I agree. There may also be an uptick in 360 prices for power adapters and power cables because the power brick and cable on older 360 break, or people who need a power brick need to buy one because they lost their power adapter.
