Well, the topic title may be a bit confusing, but I really couldn't think of much else, so, first of all let me explain that this topic really isn't about any hidden treasure, its just a term I want to use. I also wasn't sure if I should post this in General Discussion, or the Snakes on a Plane forum. I want this topic taken seriously, so I am posting it in General Discussion, mods can feel free to move it if they so wish.
Ok, so, basically, heres what this topic is about.
Has anyone else every gone through old stuff, or stuff that was packed away, and found stuff they thought they lost, or got stolen or whatever?
I ask because I recently went through some boxes and was VERY surprised to find some old stuff. I found my old Playstation with its AV cables (Its missing everything else), aswell as my old Super NES and its AC adapter (everything else is missing). I was shocked to find this stuff, because I thought the Playsation had been thrown away after it broke (It didn't nessecarily break so much as it stopped reading certain discs, after I got my PS2 I put this away), and I thought I stold my SNES to my uncle.
I'm going to find some ways to see if these work, and if they do, I'm gonna start collecting stuff for them again. The local video game store should have all the stuff im missing, and needless to say, I would really love my PSX and SNES back. My PS2 sometimes doesn't play certain PSX games perfectly (Mine is so old, its one of the models that didn't have perfect emulation of the titles). My SNES is a model 2 (one of the ones that didn't have the Eject button, you just pulled the cart out).
I'm gonna go through some more old boxes to see what else I can find. Hopefully I find alot of my old stuff that goes with this. Off the top of my head I hope to at least find my Kirby Superstar and Killer Instinct games, aswell as my Soul Blade PSX game (As its VERY rare now, and it would give me the complete Soul game saga (I have Soul Calibur for Dreamcast, aswell as Soul Calibur II and III for PS2). Anything else I could find would be awesome.
Oh, and I did find a few other interesting things. An old harmonica that I used to be fairly good at, aswell as a complete Generation 2 Optimus Prime toy, with just two small parts missing, aswell as the light and sounds not working anymore.
Anyone else ever come across any hidden treasure just searching through stuff?
