"Found" a huge storage tub of video games in a basement

I get a call from my brother this morning. He says he had a huge and heavy storage bin packed full of video games to give back to me. I have absolutely no idea what is in it.

I took about 8 storage boxes to his house about a decade ago. I thought I had gotten all of them but it seems I missed one and forgot about it. He has moved several times since then and just keeps bringing it along and storing it for me. His new house is too small to keep it so he called me.

I was thinking 3DO games but my niece says there are a lot of cartridges in there.

What could be in there? I'm really excited.

Ooh, how fun! Take pics of your "unboxing"!

That's pretty sweet. It's always cool to rediscover stuff you totally forgot about. Almost like getting it for the first time all over again!

Hopefully it's not a box full of Space Jockey. :lol:

About 3 years ago, I helped my dad move the massive amount of junk my mom never will let him dump. We put it up on rafters in his garage. As we were moving things, I ran across my old Atari Jr and NES from my childhood, and the medicine box we used to hold 2600 carts in. I snapped all of that up! Finding long-lost and forgotten video games is nostalgia twice over. Anxious to see what you find in your box of lost memories!

Cool. From time to time, I help my mom clean out/organize some stuff in her garage, since it's basically become a storage place for a bunch of my brother's junk, my childhood stuff, stuff left to me by my grandma, stuff left to my mom by my other grandma, and who the hell knows what else, and while there aren't any games in there (as far as I know), I have come across a few cool video game related items. Some of it is stuff that I don't remember ever having, like an old Mario coloring book, and other stuff, like my N64 box, I couldn't remember if I still had it or if I got rid of it way back when.
