Storing Video game cartridges and consoles in storage units

[claudio]

Is there any issue's storing video game cartridges and video game consoles in non-climate controlled storage units?

I live in a area when it can get 0 digit temperatures in the winter and high 90's in the summer.

Now....I wouldnt put cd's in it, but would temperature change build moisture and damage either console or game cartridge? Also from excessive heat in summer?

Not a good idea. A recent post less then a week ago.

I found this recent discussion using Racketboy Search Tool; the word COLD.

I would avoid it. This is a "we told you so" moment waiting to happen

I'd avoid it as well, the previously mentioned topic was in Houston and only for the winter which is mild compared to the conditions you're describing. I live in an area with a similar climate and would never consider leaving gaming stuff in a store unit with no climate control.
