I have a few cassette tapes and CDs from when I was in middle school but that's about it. I still have my PS1 games but most of those I got in my later teens. I got rid of all my NES and SNES stuff in my 20s.

Everything else like toys, books, trophies/awards etc. are long gone.

Honestly probably TOO much boxes of toys that I cant bring myself to part with.

Idk why. Its all just sitting upstairs at my parents house in bins. I think Im still holding onto the fantasy that someday Ill be able to afford a house or even a bigger apartment and be able to put more stuff on display.

Or the other fantasy that Ill meet a woman and get married and have kids (and thats after the fantasy of finding a job that doesnt totally stress me out and also pays well enough to have a family lol) and then we can play with my old toys together.

I wish I still had all my old Gamepro magazines.

Every year for Xmas my grandma's gift to me was always a one year subscription to a magazine of my choice. I had a huge stack of them at one point.

anyway, i had that hat for years, used it every winter.

We called that class home economics here. Did half a semester of that and then the other half in shop class.

At least they sold it. Myself, and I cant even imagine how many others would be set for life if stuff was sold and not thrown away.

A bookshelf and a dresser from the early 80s. Physical music from the time I was young. Various nic-nacs my dad gave me from when I was a kid. All my toys are not at my house but in boxes in my dads basement. So I still have them, just not at my house currently.

Lost a ton of stuff as a kid when my dad went on a bipolar bender and didn't pay for storage fees. RIP all of my Lego sets, other toys, Sega Genesis and like 20 games, and also his baseball trading card collection including some rare ones like a Ken Griffey Jr rookie card (I remember that card because KGJ was my favorite baseball player as a kid).

I still have some of my Pokemon cards, Gameboy games, Goosebumps books, sports trophies, yearbooks, and my one surviving Lego figurine from when I was a kid. Otherwise my oldest things are from when I was a teenager.

Tons. My childhood bedroom was left more or less alone when I moved out and the closet is stuffed with a bunch of old things. My family never threw much out. As far as stuff I still have on me, I've been collecting books and movies my whole life and still have a handful I got as a kid.

I guess just to double back. It was nice to read what some people kept. But I have a bunch of Peanuts/Charlie Brown books. One made me tear up because I forgot my mom and dad wrote a personal message in one.

Other than some stuffed animals, it's mostly just some old videogamea or board games. When I moved I wanted to throw mostly everything away. ( which I did more than some ppl but eh).

I still have my baseball glove from high school, my merit badge sash, and a couple of N64 cartridges (but no N64). That's probably everything I still own from before age 18.

An original crystal Xbox from 04-05.
A Kingdom Hearts case that's been through hell and back but I still have it from 07.

Everything else was probably lost when I moved but I know my dad kept a lot of stuff from back then.

Nearly everything. My favorites being a stuffed rabbit I named "Bill" that my aunt made me and a blanket my step-grandmother knit for me that probably can't cover 33% of my body anymore. They're back home across the country, though.

The electronics are all packed up in the garage.

I'm fairly sure my copy of Final Fantasy 7 on PS1, that I obtained when I was around 7, is still in a box somewhere.

I don't generally keep old stuff, I'm not sure how that one survived (especially given that when I first moved out, I was encouraged to only take what I needed and my family would look after everything else - only to find that any time I went back to grab something, it'd been thrown out or given away. Which is what I also would've done with 95% of it anyway, but was really annoyed about that other 5% given that I'd specifically been told it would be looked after). The case is pretty damaged but I believe the discs are fine.
