Rescued this haul of games and consoles from the compactir last minute…

Found this huge haul. Someone was cleaning out a basement.

I literally rescued it as the dump truck rolled up, it was all standing in the rain along with a bunch of old furniture, carpets, etc. I picked up a few things earlier on but I couldn't get to some other stuff, so I went home. Then a dump truck rolled up. They were throwing it all into the compactor! I ran down to get the games at like 5 am.

Left to right: Steam Deck for scale, PS2 Slim with a mechanical clock on top of it, a bunch of UMDs, a bunch of cartoon DVDs (all bootleg), bunch of Xbox360 games (Including Forza Horizon 2 which I have wanted to play for a loooong time), a lot of PS2 games (mostly bootleg too). One of the Xbox360 games is still in the wrapper, unopened! I think it's AC Brotherhood.

The FH2 disc is in some sort of two-game deal and has two discs and like four manuals in it. It doesn't even close, lol.

I think some of those games with handwritten labels might actually be original discs, they have the ps logo hologram on the data side on the inside ring.

Then closer to the front: a GBC, Mario Kart Wii, a couple 3DS games, and a huge bag of various AV cables.

The GBC will be great, I bought an OLED screen + case kit a while back (yellow envelope) and needed a motherboard for it. The state this thing is in, it'll be perfect for that.

Also got a nice recent ish gaming pc, it'll be amazing for win 7 era games. It has a GTX 1050 and some sort of probably AMD cpu.

Also found some car related items like lube, brake cleaner, etc. Some of it unused. It'll be great for projects.

Also got three working 16:9 lcd monitors (probably all 1080p) and a 4:3 one, and a large 50"-ish tv. That last one doesn't turn on, but maybe I'm doing something wrong – I'll look into it later.

I'm glad I could save those games from being destroyed! My SD shows StopKillingGames and they're also fighting to stop games from being destroyed, not by dumpster truck compactors but by shutdowns without an offline mode enabled. I thought I'd show some appreciation for that. If you want to support them, go sign their initiative.

Anyways I hope people like to hear about games getting saved.
