A collector's log.

Posted under gameroom, setup

Got two new systems and a few new games recently, so I thought I'd post my revised set up and let you guys peek inside the drawers. Take a look.

This is my updated full set up, with the drawers open so you can see. The image on the TV is actually my custom health warning screen for the Wii, my Wii is hacked to have a custom theme too, I'll post specifics on that in another post.

This is a close up of my stack of most played systems. Notice the Playstation nestled between the NES and N64! That's new. That's the box my copy of Ocarina of Time came in. I thought I was getting the original case, but whatev, I got the game, that's what matters most.

This is the right side drawer, just some gamecube controllers, games, and various accessories.

This is the left side. My other new addition, a first gen Sega Genesis and Sonic 2, 3, and Sonic and Knuckles. No hook ups or controllers yet, but I'll get those later. Some SNES games, just A Link to the Past and Sim City 1, no SNES yet, but I figured I'd snag those as I play those on emulators alot. My 64 games and NES games on the right. My mom has a labler, so I label my N64 games on the top for easier sorting. Almost forgot to mention the Gameboy Color there next to the Sega.

So that's it for now, Makin' good progress or what?

It's coming along nicely!  Thanks for sharing your Room of Doom pics!
 
@Marriott_Guy:Thanks, will post more when I get new stuff!
 
I bet by the end of the year your going to be taking pictures of at least 2 walls worth of stuff.
It adds up really fast Wink
 
@Izret101:Yea, I noticed, rearranged my drawers at least 5 times since I started about 4 weeks ago.
 
Sweet!  It's only a matter of time now before you start cobbling together shelving.  You should take a look through the Collection Connection threads sometime - the rearranging never ends (and that's half the fun)!
 
Nice set-up! Too bad the PS1 doesn't have a disc tray, makes it kind of hard to put in a game the way you have it now. Tongue
 
...lol, Sirgin.  Here I was thinking about what he was going to do when he got a SNES...
 
Very nice start!! And how cares if you cant easily play your PS. As long as the NES is ready to fire up.
 
You've got yourself off to a nice start. Hit some garage sales and you'll no doubt find some great bits to keep it going.
 
Lol guys, thanks for the massive amounts of responses!. There's really no easy way to play my NES or PS, and I don't know what I'll do when I get more top loaders like a Dreamcast or the SNES. I saw a pretty decent entertainment system at Goodwill that looks like it can hold my current set up, but I'm worried what I'll do when I get more. My room is not going to be big enough, I can already tell. Just waiting on my uncle to move out, (he's living here temporarily) then I can move my stuff in his room and make that my permanant Room of Doom (at least until that one becomes too small, lol.
 
@Chaos Punk sXe: There really isn't much point in worrying about having enough room in the future, because you will never have enough room. It's a simple fact of game collecting, anytime you get more room, it fills up too quickly.
My collection went from a corner of my bedroom to half of a small room to filling that room and then back to the other larger room but filling it this time, all within a couple years. I've never had time to really plan out how I wanted it set up because every time I got something new, I had to rearrange things anyway.

I don't know if there are more drawers, but if there are, you could put the NES/N64/PS1 in one or two of them, drill holes in the back of the drawer for the cords, and then when you want to play, you can just pull out the drawer and pop a game into it.
 
@NES_Rules: Dude ur an effing genious.
 
@Chaos Punk sXe: Nah, I've just had a lot of experience maximizing space.
 
Just keep building up.
You will run out of horizontal space before vertical.
Sometimes it makes it a pain to access stuff but you just put the things your never going to use up there.
