This item belongs to tmlfan over on cgcc.ca. I would love to get my hands on a TurboGrafx-16 kiosk like this.
I did make a gameboy game-holder thing out of cardboard and papier mache. Started out as just 2 pieces of cardboard with slots for games, and then I embelished it:How many hours did you put into that frame? How big is it? It's hard to judge from the photo. If I remember correctly, GameBoy games are about 2" tall so that would put the frame at...carry the 1... to 1.5' tall?

i know tmlfan as i am over on that forum from time to time,... and in see you are as well :)I'm sure I'll be jealous. I sense myself tearing up already.
i will post some new pictures of my games room and Fifty if you think that Kiosk looks good wait till ya see mine <<brag pose>> :P

I'm quite pleased with my cabling. All I need is a VGA adaptor for my Dreamcast, and then nothing at the back of the TV will need to be swapped around (although the SNES SCART isn't great). It's still a horrendous mess though, but I can't see it so I don't care.
I don't think I own anything that would inspire awe to anyone here, I just own a lot of nice things. I have a large collection of Gameboys (looking out for a black DMG-001, a blue DMG-001, a black pocket and a silver non-mirror pocket to complete my "basic colours" collection!) which I really need to sort out in a nicer display somehow.

Here are some pictures of mine. Gotton some more systems and games since then, super grafx, duo-r, neogeo pocket, etc. Looking to build a custom shelve for all the systems I have. I want to know how you guys store your controllers and accessories?

I'm sure there is some scumbag that would charge you for a complete ROM set, but everything is free on the Internet.

five wireless controllers sit on a shelf, face down to keep the dust out;I'd recommend keeping them right-side-up and using a cloth dust cover. Long-term pressure on the buttons, even just the weight of a controller, seems to fatigue the rubber innards.
My collection has been so fragmented over the years, I can't wait to settle down some place and have all of my games organized in one place but that won't happen for a few months at least.
Here are some pictures of mine.
One lonely little Neo Geo game :( But, it looks to be KOF94! :D

Hey, I have that same shelving system. You're using it to better effect than I did. It was starting to buckle under the weight of my 27" tube tv, so now it's sitting in the garage. :)
I put my extra controllers and cords/cables in ziploc bags (those freezer food sized ones), and then label what bag is for what system.Those Ziploc bags are clear. Why do you have to label the bags?
Pro tip: don't ask wife, just bring the cabs and shit in the house without asking. They'll be upset at first but then finish another house project they have been nagging you about for a long time and bring her home like some cupcakes and wine and they'll forget all about the game room.
Step 1: Convince my wife to allow me to takeover the room. [COMPLETED]
Step 2: Convince my wife to let me start collecting my old TG-16 games. [COMPLETED]
Step 3: Empty the crap out of the room and move "my crap" in. [PENDING]
Step 4: Renovate the basement (where the room resides), and design it to include a "gaming area". [LONG TERM GOAL]
Step 5: Convince my wife we need a minimum of 1 pinball machine, and 1 cocktail arcade table [PRAY EVERY DAY]
Oh, and if anyone is curious... yes, I do have all the pieces for the mobile on the baby swing and it is for sale. However, I would prefer to trade it for HU cards. :)
The slat wall reminds me of the game store my neighbor's mom owned when I was a kid!
Hey, I have that baby swing. Only our kid outgrew it so now it's sitting in the garage. :DWhy do you think mine is sitting in that room? Our kid outgrew it at 5 months. Damn thing sucked batteries, and barely rocked with her in it. I was going to solder it up with dummy batteries and a AC adapter, but I never found the time to do it.
Hm, I guess I should give Beyond Shadowgate another chance some day given the love for it around here. I had the image once, but I had an external firewire drive that went bad and I wound up destroying the 80GB drive that was connected to it... Lost a lot of PC Engine stuff.

VestCoat, I have that same RCA tv. Had anyway. I think it had s-video as the highest video input. Weighed a ton. When I switched to an hdtv, I sold it for $100 to someone else in 2009.I s-video the shit out of my 3DO and DVD player.
Looking nice guys. I'm going to build a 12 cube custom shelves to hold all my concoles. Hopefully 12 is enough:) Got my materials and ready to start. Hopefully I'll get it done by this weekend. Can't wait to show it to you guys!!A TurboGrafx or Duo will only squeeze into a twelve-inch cube if you have a Turbobooster or mod to put the AV out on the back of the unit; otherwise it sticks out and you need more room on the side.

Vestcoat, here is what I meant 12 cubes shelve. First furniture I ever attempted. Just need to paint. Debating whether or not I should put a backing.

I agree with Nando. Paint bad....Stain good...
The shelving looks awesome! I would go with a backing. Seeing all the cables hanging down will drive you nuts. Especially if you have painted white walls. Not to mention you'll have a crapload of power bars at the bottom so you'll be able to see all the massive AC adapters. I have serious OCD when it comes to cabling, so me I would put a backing on (with holes drilled for cabling) and I'd still end up tie-wrapping all the cabling to keep it neat. If I had 12 consoles I'd probably add some P-Touch labelling too just in case I had to unplug something specific in the future.
@SuperPlay - Are those IKEA shelving/cabinets? They are pretty sweet looking.
Some excellent collections being posted here. I'm more envious with every post.
I may contribute to this thread. :) Gotta organize it first.
I plan on posting pics of my gaming room once i figure out how to set everything up.It's ok guys, just think how nice it'll look to see some before/after shots :dance:
Amazing set up from everyone, I feel I need to start collecting. Time for my wife to get a job but every where she applies its [-( from places.

Hah, I really wanted that R.O.B. NES robot as a kid back in the day! Forgot all about it till your picture. Too bad it was technically such a waste/failure, only 2 games were ever made for it.

i have a bunch of old floppies that I have no use for, and no one wants to buy them from me :(
Elevator Action Returns? Never heard of that one. *Fifty heads off to YouTube*
Was just unpacking some of my Saturn stuff and realized I had some pretty pricy games mixed in there! A few dupes that I need to sell/trade as well.

Had to make sure the new setup could handle the power load (it can't...need to run another power strip).
Is this your house?! Holy crap!!!That's just the garage...since this is the Brag'n Boast thread; In the basement is the home theater and upstairs in the living room is the console setups.
How do you guys power all those machines?There is a lot of outlets in the garage. Whoever lived there before me used it as a shop. I had to run three extension cords to break up the power to the middle. I've never blew a breaker but I did trip the cheap power strips a few times.
Great image. Thank you for sharing! I really like the little shelf you have them on. I'm looking to find a CD rack that will allow me to stack them horizontally instead of vertically. I was worried about the hu cards slipping inside, especially on the Keith Courage refurbed cases where they don't have clips. Nice collection, but what are you going to do with your binder now? :)

I've always noticed a slight lag in my 8 and 16-bit consoles and realized if run them through the TV *then* to the receiver, the lag disappears. Granted, I don't get the nice up-scaling the receiver provides, but I sit so far back it really doesn't make any difference.
Still, a lot of my obeying is done in my bedroom on a 27" JVC Tube TV, but it's nice to be able to finally play while sitting on my couch and listening though a decent sound system. :)

I think those came from an Ikea in San Diego circa 2003 or so... Same as the entertainment center. There used to be a glass door on the front that would slide from end to end, but I took it off. I think it looks better without, it's easier to access everything, and probably allows for slightly better air circulation. :)

Three different versions of one of my favorite games.
That shelf, I've posted before. I had a buddy of mine build it for me out of solid maple wood. He is a cabinet builder, and made it without nails or anything. Some cut where all the joints kinda snap into position. :?: :?: Anyway, he will have to build another one soon..

Bernie, your sorting is killing me. Such a great collection, but such a bad sorting. Turbo CDs mixed in with Super CDs mixed in with Hucards mixed in with PCEngine...
lol, I sort alphabetically. I used to do it by region and format, but ehh.. I like it this way better. :)

I'm usually not OCD, I just find that sorting method to look so ugly. The end labels are so vastly different.
I prefer my method of sorting. Old TG16, Newer TG16, TGCD, Super CD, PCEngine stuffs.
SNIP
Just need to get off my lazy duff, and finally get those sparky labels.
Geez, i even group Dreamcast games by the spine colour. Then by alpha it drives me nutz when they change the label styles. Lke the PS1, ps2, ps3, DC, Genesis, TG16...
If you are worried by aesthetics, I suggest you sort by THICKNESS of items:

You do realize, there aren't a ton of new things happening with the turbografx. Things are going to get repeated.
Here's a video of a small part of my collection I have setup for casual gaming with friends. I also posted the same video on a different topic for the Nec based gaming gathering I am trying to get organized. The rest of my collection is put away until I setup my storage room for gaming again. I will probably by then know how to post up multiple pics you can see without having to click onto photo links. Sorry guys this posting up in forums is all completely new to me. I'm just barely learning the ropes. Sorry about the crappy video quality also. My camera totally sucks !!That's some setup you got there can the madcatz joysticks,be modded to work on a snes&genesis ?

That frame is a thing of beauty! Every game room should have something like that! :D
7. Digital picture frame that auto slide shows different NEC related game screen shots and cover art, and auto plays MP3 music tracks from Lords of Thunder and Gradius II when it is turned onThis is probably the single best gameroom innovation I've seen AND the best use for a digital picture frame.
Nice setup. Is that area an alcove to a main room? Seems like a perfect spot for a gaming area.+1. Perfect niche to get your dork on without turning the living room into a museum.

The black glass CD shelf circa late 1990's.
The silver/wood shelves on the left bought in early '01.
The silver framed CafePress TG poster on the right (recent purchase).
The silver magnet board in the far left corner (recent purchase).
The apartment size couch I think is from Leon's, but it might be Loblaws. Bought it used off Kijiji. The inexpensive furniture keeps Mrs. Quid happy and allows me to spend the money on more games.
I think I'm going to spend some money and get an Asteroids mural going on the back wall. I loved playing Asteroids on Atari back as a kid;

This might look good too, or a variant of it. It's something simple I could just print out myself.
