Look on ebay and see what they're valued at... if you have any that could be worth something I'd say go for it.

I think game boxes would only really be valuable if they still contained the game and were sealed up to be honest, but you never know. Shit I had tons of NES and SNES empty game boxes and manuals in a pastic bag in my closet forever before I finally made myself get rid of the boxes. Not the manuals though, I couldn't bear the thought of them hitting the trash!

What does one do with an empty box?

Well, an awful lot of GB games are sold without the boxes so there are probably at least some people that would like the box to complete the package.

Yes I agree. Even if something's not in mint condition, having the box and manual is a lot better than just the game itself.

And some GB games are probably worth a lot. I'm sure Metroid 2 or the first Final Fantasy Adventure could sell for something if you really wanted to sell them.

This is all music to my ears. I've got every box from every game I bought. My Metroid 2 (bought off eBay 2 years back) doesn't have one though, sobs.

Ive got a boxed final fantasy adventure with instruction manual and map!
Sadly almost all of my GB games were bought from our local game shop and were never sold with the box.
