>>2889259
How are you enjoying the everdrive64? Do you play it often? Thinking bout picking one up

>>2889259
It kind of looks like everything is about to collapse and break.

Way too much shit. Clean it up brother.

>>2889274
It's great. 64 gets a lot of hate but its a good system. Discovered a lot of gems.
>>2889301
You are right
>>2889306
How ? New shelf ?

>>2889259
Could be better, but cozy enough. All ya really need.

This is just half of what I have set up and the monitor's model number is PVM-8044Q for anyone wondering.

>>2889612
Anon... are you in prison? That is one of the coldest, unhomely looking setups I've ever seen.

>>2889614
Maybe it's because all my lights are out, but I see what you mean by that.

>>2889614

He has a tiny Quorra and a boss looking MD. He's legit; leave him be.

way 3 based.
What's the white thing on the bottom?

>>2889772
Looks like a Saturn.

>>2889259

nothing about this looks comfy

>>2889772
>>2889782
White Saturn next to the Xbox, what looks to be a PC Engine Duo R or RX next to the Sufami.

>>2889667
As I've said many times, 6th gen is retro as fuck. Good on ya.

Put this in the CRT thread, may as well share it here, too.

PVM-20M4U that I just picked up after years of searching on and off. Old Sony stereo receiver and SS-B1000 speakers sound excellent. Took this just after setting up, so my SNES and Genesis aren't in the picture. Also looking into modding my NES and N64 for RGB.

Never played FF7 or owned a PS1 as a kid, so I figured it would be first on my hit list. Pretty comfy.

>>2889259
Oh damn, I used to have that steering wheel.

Mew

>>2889612
Here's the other half of my set up. The monitor is a PVM-1344Q.

>>2889883
Fuck, forgot pic.

>>2889612
do you find the 8inch pvm to be suitable for playing snes games? haven't had luck finding a 14 in my area for below 250, and i've had these fucking cables for so long.

Is a Trinitron ok or do I need a PVM or everyone will think I'm a loser?

>>2889894
A Trinitron is A-OK anon.

>>2889894
PVM nerds will welcome you into their great community, but they recognize other CRTs as acceptable ends in the search for scanlines.

>>2889894
Nah, standard trinitrons are fine. What are you gonna play on it? Composite will never look as clean as RGB, but if you're gonna run stuff in component or S-video, it'll look aces.

>>2889875
>that Sonic figure
Is that the one that came with candy inside, and you pop his quills off to pour it out? I've never seen another one since I was a kid.

>>2889893
I thought it was great considering where it's set up. I'd get an HR Trinitron model though mostly for the higher line count.

Is a flat screen CRT ok or do I need a curved one to fit in with the VR famiglia, dont want to be hated by senpai

>>2889916
flat screen =/= crt

>>2889903
Well I'm contemplating what systems to hook up to it that need it the most right now

>>2889919
show us your couch

is floor sitting the proper way to play retro games /vr/?

I'm sure most of us floor sat when we played games when we were younger, because of short cables on our controllers

>>2889916
Flat screens are more likely to have geometry issues, since it's more natural for the electron gun to fire across a curved surface as it aims. That said, I owned a 32" JVC flatscreen that was just fine. Occasionally there would be an issue with the edges of the screen, but it was always very minor. Not a big deal and all, and I'm usually really anal about that stuff.

>>2889918
He means a flat tube.

>>2889921
What systems do you have? Most can do S-Video if you just nab the right cable.

>>2889926
I was lucky as fuck when I was a kid. My parents bought us our own 20 inch TV just for video games and put it in this sweet desk that essentially mimicked an arcade cabinet. Had one of those weird kneeling chairs in front of it. It was really neat.

My current retro gaming setup is ideally played at floor level, my back/ass/legs can't take that shit anymore. Bought pic related, pretty comfy.

>>2889928
I guess my ideal would be the largest curved CRT I could find for light gun gaymin and then a 20 inch PVM or something like that.

I have a Dreamcast, Saturn, NES, SNES, Genesis, PS1, PS2, N64, Gamecube, Xbox

Might want to look through the similar products, there are some other options that may be cheaper. I've been using this one for almost 2 years, and it's held up pretty well considering I'm 6' 2" and 250 lbs.

>>2889802
Yup, it's a Duo RX!

>>2889827
That Xbox is modded. Little toggle allows it to both rip and run games to/off the hdd. Various console emulators on it as well as MAME.

Here's a panoramic view of my office from a few months ago.

>>2889903
Yup its that toy. Pretty rad toy. Had it since I was a kit

>>2889894
I have a shadow mask CRT. Am I a loser?

Does anyone else notice the giant crab on the top shelf? Wtf is that?

>>2889667
Why two PS2s?

>>2889259
what the hell is that thing on top of the nintendo entertainment system

>>2890962
That's just how unretro I am. Also that's like asking why do you have more than one $10 bill in your wallet.

Changed a few things since last time.

>>2889919
sick supaboy

>>2891261
no its not

>>2891542
u have enough gameboys bruh?

>>2891542
Why do you hoard consoles?

>>2891559
Well of course not like asking "you" as you obviously have less than $20 in your piggybank.

>>2891542
desk area

>>2891560
Got a lot from friends after they got out of Pokemon

>>2891562
Idk, I do repairs so about half of them weren't even working when they came into my hands. The 3 on the very left belong to other people.

>>2891576
no it's not like have more than one $10 bill in your wallet because a second $10 bill doubles the utility of the first $10 bill, but a second PS2 doesn't add up to anything unless you're using playstations as currency which is pretty silly imho.

>>2890962
The fat PS2 is a Japanese model, a see-thru smokey color. I traded a fat US model for it to a guy that got it in Japan while in the Navy.

The slim is just a US-NTSC.

>>2891593
A second PS2 adds up to plenty. It doubles the utility of the first in much the same way as a $10 bill. You can use them both or save one for later. If one is lost or consumed you still have another. You can sell or trade them. You really haven't though this one through Einstein.

>>2891580
I always liked the TI for its voice synth support.

>>2891759
>You can use them both
Post video proof of you playing two PS2 games at once.

>>2891771
Jesus Christ why the fuck do you care if he has doubles of a console? I have a few doubles, I might sell some and I might keep some

>>2891771
You're obviously not one of those faggots who keeps insisting that the PS2 sold so well because it's a DVD player.
And you live alone.
And you have no friends.

I also have an snes controller knock off for pc
i only do emulators though i do have a dreamcast

>>2894186
I really dig it. Simple, small, clean, comfy.

> All these consoles just crammed together
> Dreamcasts pushed up against flat surfaces blocking the exhaust vent
> Consoles on top of a TV so cords block the screen

You people are disgusting.

>>2893356
Is this pc for emulation or your main rig ? I was thinking of hooking a crt to my main rig.

>>2889847
That receiver is beautiful.

>>2894259
Agreed

>>2894161

>husky native american bitches with diabetes

>>2894259
>>2894281
Thanks! I quite like it, too. Got it for a few bucks at a flea market many years ago. Can't recall the model number. STR-7025 maybe? Mid 1970s, I think. It's nothing special, but it puts out a nice clean signal, and the gentle green glow soothes my weary soul.

Audio is something most people tend to neglect when setting up a game station, but there's something about it that enhances the experience so much for me. Some 8-bit sound effects become pure ear sex when they're played loud and clear enough to go right through you. Old CRT TVs generally had better built-in speakers than modern flatscreens, but it's amazing how much even they can pale in comparison to the simplest dedicated set-up.

>>2894309
Op here. I'm in the market for some vintage stereo equipment for my setup. I'm having problems finding good stuff for a good price because everyone over charges on anything old cause muh collectors item.

>>2894186
Very cozy... Kinda want this for my bedroom now. I love small tvs

>>2894414
I'd try hitting up flea markets, rummage sales or church fairs. I was lucky enough to get mine back before the vintage hipster wave hit. Might also get lucky on ebay or Craigslist, but you'll have to wade through a million overpriced options.

>dat iMac in the corner
My school's media lab got a ton of those, brand new back in the day. They fucking sucked, especially when you had grown up learning PC. I still get a chortle when I see them in movies and stuff. They just scream "late '90s" like nothing else.

everybody has such cool stuff! I am not a collector but my dad kept all the old consoles. except my NES that is still mia

>>2895254
and downstairs

need to organize my stuff.

>>2895254
Very comfy. I've always been a fan of wood paneling.

>>2895261
That TV is up way too high, though.

>>2894186
holy shit, is that a Mellowlink cel?

>>2894186
I have that shitty nightstand.

(although the same brand, not completely pic related, but it's under my desk).

>>2890138
The only true retro in this thread. Minimalistic and clean. Nice, anon.

>>2895656
thanks.

Had to to clear the speakers. its on a tilted wall mount and the viewing angle isn't bad from the recliners.
comfy related

one for multiplayer/recording. one for comf.

>>2895254
heh, I think I have the same Sanyo. Pardon the mess, was playing some stuff tonight.

>>2896257
And this is directly behind me. I just set up these shelves this weekend and displayed my older stuff on it. Pic came out blurry sorry.

>>2894453
impressive.. but dysfunctional.

Old picture at this point, I need to replace the CRT, it's really screwy with displaying color

>>2896320

Holy shit shedbro is here

>>2896325
I'm in a lot of places

Working on it, somethings have been moved since this picture

>>2894186
>>2890138
I can respect this simplicity movement. I've posted before in other threads. but might as well.

>>2896343

Clean your fucking room, man.

Have some self respect and don't let your living area look like trash. Jesus those cables everywhere alone are awful. You've got broken pieces of your shitty particleboard shelving just laying there, a Saturn precariously perched on top of a PS3, you've got duct tape on your wall, stickers on your laptop, your Dreamcast doesn't have a modem in it... good lord dude.

> Nice collection tho.

>>2889612
Is that a Genesis painted white?

Where do all you fuckers find Trinitrons? I'm jelly as fuck.

>>2896439
my freind got his from a local tv station that upgraded to digital broadcasting

>>2896436
Yes. It's just the top shell.

>>2896610
Not hating or anything, setup is interesting. Is it actually a shed or? Where about's, like in friends backyard or something? Pay rent? What's up with the poptarts?

>>2896667

>>2896670
Only good flavor is cinnamon.

>>2896673
Strawberry is a close second, and Wild Berry is pretty good as well

>>2896597

>>2896689
Half of the motherboards still work I think, too old to be useful though

I use that piece of junk crosley for storing my vinyl and its a good end table. Here's a pic of my Zenith. The sound quality is still so amazing on it!

>>2895261
>those big case VHS tapes
I always hated those. There's no reason for the cases to be taller than normal cardboard VHS cases.

>>2896738
How long have you been collecting vinyl. I just picked it up not too long ago and feel that I'm too choosy with certain records. What could I do to improve collecting.

>>2896738
How do you store vinyls in there?

>>2897217
The stand underneath came with the record player, my uncle got it for me as a gift a while ago and honestly the stand by itself looks kinda stupid so i just use the top record player as a decorative piece

Picture is a few weeks old, things have been moved about a bit since

>>2897215
>>2897215
Well I've been listening to vinyls since i was a kid. I'm 26 now and about half of my collection is my mothers. She was a big influence on my taste in music and she had some great taste!!!

Is there any local record shops near you?
What is your main taste in music?
Me personally I was always really into Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, ac/dc, George Thorogood just to name a few off the top of my head. My mom liked all the rock but she also opened me up to some stuff like Michael Jackson, the go-gos, Cyndi lauper, Elton John...
any decent record store should have a wide selection. You should ask your friends what classic bands or artists they like and see if they say anything you haven't listened too, you'll most likely find something you never thought you would like!
>pic related I just bought this brand new factory sealed! What a deal!

Its messy but I just moved so I need to clean it up some. Grabbed another switch box to help with that. Not seen to the left is every modern system and an HDTV, but VR doesn't care about them.

Postin' the cave. That CRT has been replaced with a 20" PVM since then. Will post the upstairs battle station I share with the wife and rugrat on request.

>>2897459
I'm the same with my dad,sadly he threw out his records a long time ago. I've been going in and out of record stores looking for bargains honestly. I'm hoping I find king Crimson and pet sounds soon.

Gonna go out on a limb here and ask how anonymous feels about cookies & cream. I maintain it is the best flavor, especially when toasted.

>>2898379
>That a mame cabinet?
Not them, but yeah, that's definitely the mame UI. Beautiful setup all around.

>>2898215
-Move that box of cables somewhere out of sight (and coil them up first)
-Pull all the cables coming off the back of your TV, zip tie them, and handle them appropriately.

Your furniture/mount/shelving setup is rad but it looks like absolute dogshit. It's pretty close to looking great, though. The stacks of Xboxes and PS2s is hilarious.

Do you have a pivoting mount, btw?

>>2898379
Yea it's a mame cabinet (all original MK4 stuff except the marquee) that a super rich guy was just throwing out, no joke. Didn't really have space but the wife is super cool so she lets me get away with that kinda stuff. I intend to replace that horrible MK layout with something a little more classy. Also put the stick on the right like a proper gentleman. There's an unfinished mame cab beside it.

>>2891771
What the fuck is a PS2?

Is that like a PSX?

>>2896286
I'm currently storing my nostalgia here while I'm in this apartment, I lost my home a few years ago, but managed to keep this. Much, much more has been lost (sadface). One day I'd like to get everything back the way I had. Nothing autistic, just functional and usable.

Hey don't do a RGB scart mod of the N64 just yet.
People are working on an hdmi N64 mod that produces a better quality picture than the scart image.

>>2898643
That HDMI output will surely help his PVM.

OP here. after looking at this thread and reading advice I've decided to rearrange my setup. Thanks for the input and all the inspire pics !

Nice dude! Bargains should be easy to come by considering they're really isn't a huge market because all the damn millennials would much rather tap the screen on there smartphone and instantly have the whole beatles enthology.
Just listened to King Crimson for the first time and I'm impressed, thanks for the suggestion
I also love the Beach boys but unfortunately out of the 5 albums I own, no pet sounds. I did have the privledge to see them perform live a few months ago at a local venue, still sounds great for a 70+ dudes
Shadows of the Empire still one of my fav games of all time. Haven't had the pleasure to play castlevania 3 yet
I'm also a Flyod fan!

Question: are you from the U.K.?

>>2898379
Currently from the top
N64, SNES, NES (first two share the same scart, next two power supply)
Jag, NGCD, 3DO (Yes they do get played on)
MegaCD32x, next box has changed and is NOT RETRO!! PS2x2(chipped, HDD modded) 360. PS3
Saturn (got two on there right now, ones fully modded another got a Rhea), PCE, DC Famicom
CD32 (yes it gets played on), Master system
All have wires coming to a point at the bottom and the CRT has a SCART extension cable thats set down there

Only draw back I have found is, controllers dont reach the sofa so when friends come over things have to move, looking into extension cables
Yes its a Verctrex on that stand Xbox, 7800 (used for my games nights a fair bit and its power supply is annoying) among the TV boxes
The Vectrex was going on the unit but I no longer have room

These bucket chairs are very comfy

>>2896320
Why do you have motherboards hanging on the wall?

>>2898723
Sounds kinda cozy. Gonna need pics.

>>2898916
I'm going to check out the store again today. I'll probably check out the jazz I hear there's little compression on those resulting in loud and crunchy drums. Well that's how the store owner described jazz vynils really any variety is what I'm looking for. finding hidden gems is more satisfying than paying too much for something you already know.

As for millenials I think vynils are going away for them, I've been seeing more and more cassette releases of new albums here in the States. (also I'm from the states).

>>2898810
Its a Makthaverskan 45 , a friend got it for me because I slept in during record store day. It's really more of her kind of music than mine but I still like one track on it.

>>2898723
Any room for a bed? A sleeping bag? It wouldn't be too bad as long as there's A/C or decent insulation.

>>2898395
I change the cabling too much to zip tie although yeah I suppose tucking away the cables could have improved the pic. It was just a quick snap and yeah I have a rotating mount. You can also see the projector tucked up between the rafters that throws on a wall that's out of the frame. There's a lot more to the dungeon but it'd be a job to get a good pic of all of it. I guess I could take 3-4 pics and just move the junk out of every one before I snap it.

How many of you have dumb terminals?

>>2900507
why is the sensor bar on a stand

>>2902691
Not him, but they come with an optional stand. It increases their reception from lower angles, because, well, they're not sitting on a flat surface. At least, that's what I used mine for.

>>2902612
I don't, but I wish I did.

Obligatory XRGB poster again. This time with new speakers and a reciever now (Denon X2200W). Yeah yeah, >LCD, but it IS calibrated w/ ColorHCFR. I do plan on finally splurging for OLED mid-year if LG fixed their shit from last year.

Missing in the picture is the Dreamcast (Getting spdif and SD modded soon). AV Fami, SNES, and PS1 are still RGB, N64 is now in HDMI, and the Gamecube still runs to the Lumagen. (SNES already has SPDIF, and Famicom will get HDMI when game-tech finishes the modified boards.)

gg

>>2900439
LOL she wouldn't nag me but she deserves a decently normal living area to impress friends and family or whatever. The basement is basically like my bachelor pad was but even more stockpiled and let's say "casual" so she likes that nostalgia of the flavor from when we first met.

Have spent much less time down there since we had a son, hence why the upstairs battlestation is crowding the limits of good taste. Putting in this 60" plasma for Christmas helped balance the retro stuff nicely though.

>>2903090

>stick on the right
are you left handed or something?

Here's mine.
I only have a super nintendo that does composite so I play all my retro through that wii in the ikea case.

That super famicom controller at the bottom of the labled tv stand goes into the wii remote and it was fantastic.

was talking about it to a friend last night and told him to pick one up but he told me they're like $70+ from japan on ebay

Crazy considering i got mine for like 38 shipped a few months ago.

PVM is the 14L5

i'd post mine but its pretty ghetto

>>2903432
There's some pretty ghetto ones already. Are you ashamed even as an anon? If it's funny then we can laugh at it together right?

Made some layout changes and got a lot more stuff since this was taken. I would take a new pic but the room is a mess at the moment.

>>2903090

The basement is already whitewashed. It ain't getting finished because the headroom is only six feet as is. It's nice for people to be able to ash on the floor etc anyway. I agree that it could use reorganized though. I should have a variety of consoles displayed on the shelves there and the stockpiles around the corner deeper in the recesses.

Here's a pic of some cheap shelves I nailed up out of leftover floorboards and fence slats. It has most of the retro software, at least the stuff with uniform sizes.

...I think I envy your lifestyle?
Such a simple, carefree life.
...outside of telling the people who own the place you're at to fuck off.

Whats the story here? Someone living in an underground brazilian prison or what?

Looks like America. English text on trashbags, frozen chicken potpie tin, and the water looks like CVS brand, those milk crates look like for US style gallon jugs and not liter sized cartons or bags.

I'd personally say the photo is likely staged, if not, it's some little kid's "game room".

It's a hovel, but I figure at like 8 years old I wouldn't have given a shit.

Wow, it's almost like this picture that's been around the internet for a decade is meant for laughs.

So what do you urban welfare recipients use to get such nice CRTs in good condition?

Just troll the "free section" of Craigslist until you get something good or there's a place that still sells these fuckers?

>>2904351
PVMs have to be chased. Good consumer CRTs are everywhere cheap. My local Goodwill stopped having them then today I saw a couple. We have a Habitat for Humanity resale store that always has a few good CRTs in it. Craigslist always has tons but mostly shit.

I do like my retro games as well, but right now Im with the xbox hooked up to play some original xbox games, XBLA, and emulators on it. It has an RGH mod.

What's a PVM?

>>2904521
PVMs and BVMs are Sony brand professional video monitors. Pro monitors are basically the only way to display RGB signals in the US.
