Display Nintendo Power Collections.

Howdy everyone,



So as I work on my office building shelves and organizing one thing I haven't been able to decide is what to do with my nintendo power collection. 



So i'm looking to my good ole NA pals to see how other people displays them. Or any other guides/magazine collections.



Pictures of your set up would be super helpful.



Thanks!

    I don't have any pictures but all of my magazines are kept on a bookshelf for easy access since I tend to read them on a somewhat regular basis. It also helps with allowing my roommate to peruse through them.



    If that sort of space isn't really an option, though, I would consider getting a magazine box (similar to a comic box) and toss 'em all in there.

    On a shelf that properly holds magazines? Nothing special for me. I have all 285 issues.

    I have mine on a bookshelf. Nothing special, but it works!

    This is a project i am working on soon actually.



    I bought these from IKEA and will be drawing custom designs on them to display mine. They also sell plastic ones but the cardboard works fine and are pretty similar to the official NP ones.



    For .99 for 4 you cannot go wrong. When i use mine they will be faced the opposite direction though with the open part in the front so you can see the volume numbers. 



    This is also pretty neat, not sure how many you could fit.

    Mine currently reside in a cardboard box meant for comics, graphic novels or other magazines. You can usually find these at hobby stores for cheap. As far as displaying in your game room or other space all I could think of is maybe some clear plastic storage shelves or having them out on a bookshelf though I would use comic covers so they don't get damaged.

    I've only seen a few people with collections displayed...



    What comes to mind is Nintendo Collecting on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkMlE43OUrn7S1HKnk2-HzA He uses a magazine rack thing...you can see it in his room tours.



    I've also heard of people using plastic bags/cardboard for comics to protect and keep the magazines flat, and then storing them in comic boxes.



    Here's something someone made with rain gutters: http://imgur.com/a/Kzy96#0



    And then this: That's someones collection off here but the original picture is gone...so you'll have to use my pin to see it...no idea who's collection this was.



    Other then buying an actual rack or using those rain gutters on the wall...I don't know of how to display them. I suppose you could also buy one of those standing racks that you spin around...but you'd need several for a full set.

    Here's an idea:

    I always thought it would be cool to get a smaller version of those magazine shelves like Barnes & Noble uses at the front of the store for all of their magazines. Theirs are very large, but if you could get a smaller version, it would go great in a den or a home office to display a Nintendo Power collection.
