Every now and then, things get so out of control in my gameroom that I just get tired of it all and I tear stuff apart and rewire it. I was off work this Friday, so that was as good a time as any to once again redo the game room.
That's my desk/work area. I've got at least three PCs at any given time hooked up doing random things. The Compaq on the far left's my server, the Dell is my workstation, and the old school desktop is an old 486 used for oldwarez gaming and C64 disk transfers.
This area is a wiring nightmare. I like to keep 12-15 consoles hooked up and ready to play (I keep the rest of them in the closet). The top shelf houses three N64 units, each with a different console copier (V64, Z64, and CD64). The next shelf holds a Gamecube, PSX (dev unit), PSX (modded), and a Sega Genesis 3. The next shelf has my Sega Saturn, Atari 2600, SNES w/SWC Copier, and an NES. The bottom shelf holds my Xbox, Commodore CD32, Dreamcast, and PS2.
Here's a shot of the back wall of shelves, holding various games for various systems. I have another unit like this just for DVDs on another wall.
On the right wall is my projector. All the consoles, along with my PC all feed into the projector. On the floor you can see some of the crap I've pulled out to resort and/or file away.
These pictures don't really do the projector justice; it looks much nicer in person.
One of my wiring projects this time was to set up a place for my Amiga 1200, seen here running The Three Stooges.
A shot of the Amiga bay, with NES carts above it and Atari 2600 carts above that.
The C64, hooked up next to the Amiga. But where's the C64 monitor?
Well, duh ...
Ok, back to work. I gotta get this done before Thanksgiving.
