Random Video Game Junk I Found...

I found this stuff while cleaning out some tubs I use for storage.

I used to have an extensive collection but sold most of it off, now there's items like these seemingly thrown in random places.
What do you guys do with the leftovers?

The pic isn't great - There's a Sega Genesis Power Plug accessory by Tyco. Never used it. Box looks beat up, insides are perfect. No idea why I got it.
A Secret Of Mana cart and instruction booklet. The cart and booklet look heavily used because they were! I bought the game new when it was first released, and it's one of my favorites of the SNES era.
Strategy guides for Zelda OOT, Turok 2, Twisted Metal 3, Resident Evil: CV, Final Fantasy III with the map and VII. The FF ones were used heavily as well! I hated Twisted Metal 3 compared to 2, so not sure why I got this either.
Random instruction manuals from Metroid (the newer yellow box version, but I only remember having the original.), Super Metroid, Killer Instinct, and some others.
A box for Super Mario 64. This one is special because it says "For Display Only" on it. It's printed on, not a sticker. No cart, cardboard insert, or manual though. Weird.
A pack of DKC cars. Yeah, I used to collect EVERYTHING.
I don't even remember buying some of this stuff.

Edit: I keep finding stuff!
An orange Playstation 2 gun. Came with either Time Crisis 2 or Vampire Night, not sure why it didn't go with it's respective game.
2 Dreamcast A/V cables (had to Google pics to see what they were) and a Playstation A/V cable.
(I still have my launch Playstation and a slim PS2 and they already have their respective cables.)
A couple DC and PSX power cables. Just the generic kind with the figure 8 female plug.
A Miner 2049 cart for the Atari 800, A Star Trek cart, a Frogger cart, and Quake II with 2 expansions, each in their own case.
A Dreamcast mouse (never used, still in the box) and keyboard. Probably tried it and gave up.
I had no idea I still had most of this stuff. The consoles the stuff goes with are mostly long gone.

Awesome. Can I has?

NES, SNES, N64, and Sega Genesis represented there!

Playstation and Dreamcast too (if you include the guides).

Is all this stuff imported from USA region?

Yeah, I had one of the largest known collections around 2001.
Got bored with it, kept the games I actually played and sold off the rest.
Didn't need the money, so a lot of other collectors got some great deals.


Found a bunch of other stuff, including my Steel Battalion controller that I modded for USB use years ago. I heard someone was working on support for more modern OSes, but seems like more trouble than it's worth. It worked great in XP though. Mine is the first version with red buttons, I prefer it to the newer blue button version.

I could swear your location said "Sweden" or something yesterday.

One of my Steel Battalion controllers disappeared. I found another at a thrift store, though.

I modified XBOX controller extensions to get USB...so I wouldn't have to damage anything.

I still have the following old consoles:

Atari 2600
NES (x2)
SNES
N64
PSX
PS2
GCN
Dreamcast
Genesis
XBox
Wii
PS3
XBox 360
GameBoy
GBC
GBA
NDS
N3DS

and now that I type them all out it's insane because I hardly even play console games... yet I have all those.

The actual game collections I had (and still have for the most part) for each of them are not the vast collections that a lot of you will have had. I usually wouldn't exceed 10 games for one system. Tended to focus on the big titles only, for the most part.

For NES I still have (I think)

Mario Bros
Zelda
Metroid
Castlevania I, II, III
Contra

I'm embarrassed to list all the game systems I still have. The only one I play is NES.

That's kind of the point I got to. I was using spreadsheets to track what I had, didn't have, wanted, etc. It was pretty ridiculous!
I dabbled in import stuff as well, that's when it got crazy.
I have all the current gen systems and use the Wii to play classic games mostly.

I'm moving all of the stuff I'm finding into one place before deciding what to do with it.

Because you know, I didn't have rich parents growing up, nor am I rich now.

Ditto. I grew up very poor. My mother raised me and my twin brother on welfare. As an adult, I compensated by buying every game system I could, new or old (but skipping Sony stuff until PS3).

I have a Japanese Super Famicom with new-in-box BSX Satellaview. CD-I, 3DO, Master System, Power Base Converter, Turbo Express (portable TG16), multiple NES systems (including top loader), multiple SNES systems (including model 2), multiple N64 systems, multiple Sega Genesis systems, multiple Sega CD units (none of them work), multiple Sega Saturn systems, multiple 32x systems, multiple Dreamcast systems, multiple N64 systems, multiple Atari 2600 systems, Atari 5200, Sega Pico, Sega Game Gear, Virtual Boy, PSP, XBOX, etc... I can't really count everything.

Tons of obscure accessories for most systems.

I went crazy with Game Boy and DS variants. Buying multiple Game Boy monochrome systems, multiple Game Boy Color systems, multiple Game Boy Pocket systems, multiple Game Boy Advance systems, multiple Game Boy Advance SP systems, multiple Game Boy micro systems. This continued with GameCube and DS / Lite.

Most tragic losses:
Lime green GBA SP
NES Edition GBA SP
Virtual Boy

I found some PC stuff as well:
A boxed Space Quest IV with everything still in the box.
A Star Raiders (Atari 800XL) manual in perfect condition. They were made then to go in 3 ring binders.
Manuals and hint guides for Zork & Zork II and Kings Quest III.
This is all stuff I've had since I was younger, I never really collected PC games.
I think I have a Rescue On Fractalus 5 1/4" disc around here somewhere. That was the first truly scary game I played. You think you're rescuing a pilot - NOPE. It's an alien.

Totally forgot about this stuff. It's probably still in a tub in my garage. I think I sold a few things a few years ago, but still have most of it I'd imagine. I know I found more stuff randomly like a Metal Slug 2 bare cart for the MVS I haven't had in 10 years or more. I'll have to poke around, I might sell the rest off.
