Looks like the stories are true. I stopped in the Goodwill a while back and they had around 100 video games. Each one said on it somewhere, NHL, MLB, Madden, or Kinect Adventures, whatever the F that is. My guess is that now donations go into 3 piles: Ebay, Amazon, and stuff so awful they might as well just leave it in the stores.

I'm not sure if they're still doing this, but in Charlotte there was a Goodwill retail location that was solely focused on electronics and had quite a good game selection. I forget what it was called (something like Goodwill: Electronics, but not that), but I looked it up at the time (2015-ish) and they were rolling out these locations in several large-ish cities and I figured they were funneling the good stuff to those locations.

@copper20 Oh I probably should have specified, Games were only for PS1 and PS2, and XBOX, XBOX 360 (sometimes Wii). 20 or more of each title. No carts to be seen ever. A long time ago, a different goodwill location had a boxed Atari 2600 for $30, and I didn't buy it because it sounded like there was dirt or gravel rolling around inside the box LOL!
Actually for electronics I've lucked out in the past, having bought a boombox, a 6 disc CD changer (I wanted to have a spare one), and some cables...Strangely I paid more for the cables than I did for the boombox or CD player hehaa...
