GameTavern: Post Pictures of Your Gaming Area!

[Aladuf]

This is 100% ripped off from GAF but I was thinking that I'd like to see where you guys game it up. Post some pix of where you get your game on.

First I just wanted to post my old set up before it changed up a bit recently... this pic was taken for one of the Tavern Wars challenges a while ago:


And here's the newly updated, and much improved set up that I'm currently rocking. It even includes my freshly purchased Gamecube for the Zelda games I want to play along with Wave Race!



Now it's your turn, show us what you do it to

I'm about due for an update to my setup but my damn battery is dead.

But I took a picture for an end-of-semester project I did a couple of months ago. It's a device that detects when a TV is on, which notifies a server and sends you an email. It also lists it on websites and RSS feeds. Phidgets and sensors, man. Easy shit. I literally threw this device together in seconds and still got an A+ on the project.

But yeah, you can see one of the corners of one of my cabinets. Think of it as a teaser.

Dyne! You have Viva Pinata! We must play together!

Anyway, here's mine.. Bought the tv recently.. And sorry about the quality of the photos - phone pic.

Jim, you didn't show off your hidden consoles!

Edit: nm the other pix just didn't load at first.

Alright, I finally snapped some quick pictures. I am messy as fuck, I know.

1. First picture is the whole setup in all of its glory. Not pictured: Surround speakers.

2. The second is my game cabinet. Believe me when I say a fuckton of shit is hiding behind here. It's all hidden by my current-gen games and blu-rays. Behind it I have all my SNES, N64, Xbox console, and random other consoles and accessories.

3. This is the showcase cabinet that showed off all of my PS1 RPGs, Sega Saturn, Turbo Grafx 16, Famicom, etc. As you can see, my Gamecube collection bled over into it, along with PS2 games. Also my SNES with Chrono trigger as I was playing it recently. Easter egg: You can see my Dreamcast with Gabe's signature on it, barely.

4. My DVDs used to be on top of my receiver but I wanted to put them somewhere a little more stable. Here is where I threw them. Also: random boxes.

5. Here's the setup. PS3 (yes, 20-gig model) in the lower left, 360 on the right, and Wii horizontal on the top. I threw GTAIV and my PS3 controller adjacent to the Wii to form symmetry or something. Before, I had the Wii on the left of the 360 standing vertically, but I didn't trust the 360.

Not pictured: I have another Gamecube and a slim PS2 here in my room but it's even more of a mess. Also all of the portable stuff.

EDIT: I just realized 2 of the picures weren't turned. But I am lazy!

[Aladuf]

Damn Dyne, you've got a lotta stuff! Many many many many games.

Come on people! POST MORE!

[Dyne]

Hahah, thanks. It mostly comes from knowing where to buy things super cheap and never trading stuff in.

Thats where you got me. I always end up trading stuff in... I wish I didn't do it, but sometimes I gotta use the old games to pay for the new ones.

[Typhoid]

I was going to do this today, but I ended up packing all my shit up and moving abruptly, instead.

So once it's set up, I'll send a pic of the sweet 70's retro pad.
Assuming.

Nice. I definitely recommend a Yamaha Home-theater-in-a-box. You get a receiver and a large center speaker. I couldn't ask for anything more for my money. I got mine for $400 but I think in America they're $300.
