Games For Heroes: Requesting handhelds for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan - Image 1Wondering what you're going to do with your spare Sony PlayStation Portable or Nintendo DS?

If we're to make a suggestion, you may want to donate them to the Games For Heroes charity movement, a registered donor of the MarineParents.com group.

Founded by Peter Gallagher and Jack Wilson, Games For Heroes basically aims to send handheld video game systems to the U.S. Marines stationed in either Iraq or Afghanistan.

The console you send in doesn't have to be brand new, so long as it works and comes with its batteries (and lest we forget - its charger). At the moment, the foundation's goal is to collect a total of 10,000 handhelds, batteries, and games.

If you're interested, or happen to know somebody who is, you'll want to read the Games For Heroes FAQ, available via the source link below.
