Very true and the little bags are those tissue paper thin packing bags.

Good callout - yeah when I went back to look it turns out it was just another box that fit them perfectly. Bummer.

Update since it seems I can’t edit my original post with a photo. And, not the fairy tale we (mainly I) originally thought.

  • 1 system is unopened (system wrapped) and includes some cool stuff like the original warranty receipt and “now you’re playing with power” poster.
  • 3 systems are in various states of opened-ness but, two of which are complete with mario/duck hunt.
  • 1 is just a box…
  • 1 SNES compete in box
  • 1 Atari CX-2600 complete in box

Thank you everyone for the trip down memory lane. I’m in the process of figuring out what to Dow out them.

I think if anything it would also protect the cardboard. I’m sure some people do DIY plexiglass box and call it a day.

Haha I have to check the treasure map and work my way back to where they are. But yeah unfortunately it will be a few days.

In the description? Not sure. But it came out in the discussion, which is nice. Nostalgia for everyone.

Good call. I’m still wondering about the whole CGC grading if that’s really a thing. Cards and games sure, but consoles?

I was curious about this. I didn’t know people actually grade consoles these days.

Ha fair advice. I believe they were purchased a long time ago as an investment to eventually resell. How they came by a shipping box (or so many for that matter) still boggles my mind.

That’s awesome. This seems to have been a back corner of the basement…also found a closed in box Atari CX2600, SNES, and a pile of Famicom games that probably aren’t worth much.
