What to do with old consoles?

    I'm doing a bit of a spring clean at the moment and I'm wondering what to do with my old consoles.

    I have a PS2, Gamecube, Dreamcast, Gameboy Advance etc.

    I doubt they are worth very much now and rather than giving them to Oxfam or SVP I was wondering if there is anywhere that would want them?

    I know there are charaties that collect old PCs and send them repaired to Africa etc. and was wondering if there was anything similar to that for consoles?

    Would any Children's charaties even want them? I mean, would a kid have any interest playing on something that wasn't a PS3 or Wii i.e. current gen.?

    I know I could always put them up on eBay or Adverts.ie but thught I check if there was any better way to make use of them.

    Stick them in a black sack and put them in the attic

    You'll be glad of it when you take them down for a short play to show the kids in 10-15 years time :) , look what daddy used to play :P..none of your VR crap :P

    I still enjoy taking down the ol Atari 2600 and Megadrive for a go every year or 2, then back up she goes
