I don't know if they did this in the States, but in Canada in the 90s they gave away cds in cereal boxes. My question is, tomorrow is garbage day. I have a load of these ready to be thrown out. they date to windows 95--98---probably unplayable. Question is---should they stay or should they go---Can you tell I watch Antiques Roadshow. Need a speedy reply---garbage gets put out tonight. Am I throwing away a fortune ? LOl

I personally would not throw them out but I have a 95 and 98... but if you don't want them I would donate them to a Good Will or some sort of store that would take them... pass them on.

I wouldn't throw them out either. Someone out there would probably want them. Ask around on some of the other gaming sites too. I'm sure you will find someone willing to take them for the price of your postage.

Definitely do not throw it out! There are all kinds of nostalgia/collectors sites!

We rescued them from the garbage last night. They are not adventure games they are ones like Monopoly, Who wants to be a millionaire etc.

It doesn't matter what kind of games they are, it's where they came from. Collectors love that stuff!

The problem is finding someone who wants them. I guess you could check around for a while. But my husband just tossed his vast collection of old games into the local recycle bin without regret. Not worth it to him to spend the time and trouble to find buyers. Let us know how things work out.
