Starting to get my game room in order

I bought my house over two years ago and have been having to stash my games in boxes in my closet. The wife gave me a go-ahead to turn the basement into a game room. I still need to put the trim and baseboard up but I couldn't help but unbox all my stuff.



These were the first built-in cabinets I've ever made. I learned some lessons for the next time but they turned out ok.

You can see my sweet kitchen set in the back.The pictures were made by NAs very own milligangames. He does great work.

  • Nice nice! It is not cluttered.  
  • Looks great man! The built ins are a killer touch.
  • That looks excellent! Nice work!
  • Needs more NES/SNES, less N64.  Otherwise looks good.
  • Dig it. Nice and clean. Are those all custom cases?
  • Nice work on the built in shelves. Any plans for permanent spots for the consoles?

    I'm jealous that your SNES didn't turn yellow like mine.

    Yes. I buy the ugcs from mediashelving and have the covers made in lots of 50+. I have 60 more covers on the way. Very asthetically pleasing...

    That the one thing thats been bothering me. As for now, Ill just keep the NES/N64 on top and SNES/Genesis on the bottom. I bought the tv stand at a thrift store for a temporary replacement. Im pondering building a stand to specifically do what I need (which I'm unsure what that would be).
  • I'm the only one wondering about the vent? If it an active vent, or cold air return?

    That is an active vent. It was in that place when I purchased the house; the furnace is on the other side of that wall. The HVAC is a bit cobbled up, but due to being tired of working on this house, I left good enough alone. on the plus side it is cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

     
  • Looks great!
  • Looks Good!
  • Looking good so far! I'm also in the process of organizing the spare / storage room to house the bulk of my collection (the rest is behind glass in the living room), and it can be exciting thing to do! Please keep updating this thread with new pics, as you go along  
  • Looks good! The only thing I dislike is the amount of small posters and their staggered arrangements
  • ^^ I agree with this. Otherwise it looks incredible!
  • I like the staggered posters.  



    Needs more Batman, though.  
  • Coming along nicely. Nothing better then setting up a new game room. Took me a while to get my new one on the right track.

    I also like the staggered posters.



     
  • Very nice. Inspiration for those of us going slow with it! The studio is going to take at least another 6 months to get in fully clean and organized shape, but I'll throw pictures up once we hit that.
  • I like the posters.
