Once upon a time, Locke owned a number of Pokemon games for the DS....some of which are now STUPID EXPENSIVE to get hold of second hand (namely Pokemon Heart Gold)

one day, when looking for one of these old games, I realised they were just...gone. I looked everywhere and couldn't find them, and irately assumed I must have had them in a carry case and misplaced it on my travels

they were here this entire time and I'd totally forgotten

There's so much good shit in this box...Pokemon Heart Gold with the box and Pokewalker (rare as hell on the second hand market these days, trust me), Pokemon Diamond, Pikmin, Fur Fighters 2, one of the PS2 Harry Potter games which still rule even is Rowling is a hateful piece of shit and I'll never read her books again...

An old Gameboy SP, a spare Gamecube controller, various third party DS games like Soul Bubbles and Project Rub...

Dad came up when we were going through this stuff though and informed us he still had one of my old Gameboys in the shed, to which I was like ????? Which and why

It's only the special edition Pikachu and Pichu gameboy color that I've had since my age was in single digits, that I spent my childhood playing pokemon yellow on

I thought I'd stupidly given it away to a school friend when I was a teen, every time I see them at Comicon I've been wistfully wishing I still had it

Dad had it the entire time, I guess he held onto it either for sentimental value or in case it one day made bank
