Looking for home(for old software)

First of all, I love what you folks have done with the place.

Now down to business.

I'm culling my possessions, and am looking to find a place for all of my aged software.
I want to find them a new home, and do so all in one go - so no picking through the list. Some of which I have been carrying since the early 90s. Largely the library is made of games - with a mix of floppy disks and cds.

I no longer have the hardware to test them, they've not all been treated kindly. Most have been sitting in a shoebox between countless moves. So I am sure that there has been data rot.

Amongst the collection is everything that Bungie made between(and including) Pathways into Darkness and Myth2. Both the Elite Forces games. Jumpraven and Lunicus. Return to Zork and Zork Grand Inquisitor. Spaceway 2000. AvP 1 & 2. Plus more that I am too lazy to type out.

I stopped collecting about 5 or so years ago.

I'm not a game collector so perhaps I'm not the best candidate. But if no one else offers a home for your stuff, I will provide a good one.

I have the requisite hardware, software and TIME to archive floppies, CDs and DVDs.

Where in the world are you?

Also may i ask, are you looking just to find a home for the lot or to sell it? If your looking for a home for it i would be happy to take it but i don't have the funds to actually buy it

Midwest region of the USA. I suppose that I should have added that I would prefer to ship within the boundaries of this nation - to keep personal costs down.

And by looking for a home I mean that when I find an interested party, I will ship it to them no charge. Call it a donation to this community.

Did you ever find a home for these?
I have the hardware to read just about everything.
