That quiet smile at the end is great. It's good to have purpose, regardless of what it is. I still have all my old cards for whatever reason, all the way back to the TNT. It will never get used again, but I feel trashing it is disrespectful for all the joy it gave me when it could.
I started my daughter on a custom DMG gameboy I threw together with a new shell and rechargeable battery. Spare copy of pokemon red. Since then, got her a ds lite and fixed an old 3ds screen and she got that, too. Was going to grab her a mini pc to hook up to the television so she could play modded minecraft, but she seemed less enthusiastic about that.
