/vr/ - Retro Games

I used to have that N64

my new place. think i'm done decorating

>>5487695
where'd you put the cooler?

>>5487713
I used to have that gamecube.

>>5487762
Closet

>>5487762
I found that little table in front of my neighbors house. Came in clutch when I was walking my dog.

>>5487729
you could fuck in there

>>5487695
That looks like a police interrogating/confession room, just with video games.

>>5487695
What is that? Sawzall? Right angle drill? Weird spot to put a dewalt tool but w/e.

>>5487776
not retro

How?

>>5487695
I really hate posting the same image over and over again. I don't even feel like i'm contributing to the thread. I need to take more but can never find the time to do it...

>>5487695

>>5488174
Congratulations, you somehow managed to make a gaming setup look like a garage

>>5487695
>three different shades of green
>Console is clear green
>Controller is solid green
>Shelving is a weird pastel green

I think you need a couch instead of an office chair but it looks fine otherwise.

>>5487989
My apartment is starting to look like this since I'm getting rid of some of my shit before moving out.

>>5488143
Is this the memory card in your PS2?

>>5487695
That's the most depressing set up I've ever seen

>>5488447
Of course it is. You can see another one in the container right next to it. I have this same memory card too.

>>5487695
Comfy level:
Stanley Kubrick torture room/10

>>5487695
Goddamn dont buy plastic furniture. If any of you have plastic just dont use your autism bucks to buy games

>>5488143
Sure you are.
I'm new here, so first time seeing this

>>5487695
This looks sad

>>5487695
Put a poster or two above the TV to give it some charm. There is quite some stuff you could improve

>>5488468

>>5487989
>I can't BELIEVE this man won't add useless crap he will never use to HIS apartment, ugh

Only old TV with ps2, and laptop for emulate others plataforms

>>5488724
He needs a rug in there most of all. A bare concrete floor is decisively not comfy.

>>5487695
>You know what it is boys
I am almost scared to ask, but what is in the box on the bottom of the bookshelf? It looks like a Dewalt tool box, but I am curious.

Also, glad to see you got rid of the cooler and upgraded to something resembling a table.

>>5487695
>>5488753

>>5487695
is that just concrete

>>5487695
That looks so sad I bet Breivik lives a better life than you.

Hoping to add some sort of neo geo in the future, but alas, I am poor.

>>5489632
There's love in that picture, dough, plus cute cat.

>>5488895
No shelving (where does he put games/books?)
One single chair, no couch (not expecting to ever have company)
Not even a little end table that he can set his water bottle on instead of placing it directly in front of the TV.

It's the home of someone who is very sad or very lazy.

>>5489646
Thanks, she's my girlfriend's, her name is Winona

>>5487989
only thing bad about this is it's only one chair. if it was a couch it would be fine. But i guess no one is visiting if he only has one chair so who cares

>>5489873
No table is decisively unfunctional too.

>>5489905
Why would you ever need a table? If you want to use something as support, just use the counter. If you want to sit down and eat, do it in the chair.

>>5489847
Is that a print on the ceiling or actual records?

>>5489927
shut the fuck up before i knock your teeth out

>>5488143
I miss that TV, it's just too big for me though.

>>5489632
Looks uncomfortable to use the atari switches

>>5489632
>I am poor
It shows. Consider consolizing and MVS. You can probably get a good deal on the board from one of the arcades in your favela.

>>5489930
Seems like a hostile response to an innocuous question, my dude.

>>5487989
I totally get why any guy would only want that.
women's apartments are cluttered ad nauseum and to hell and back with bullshit that would make any decent guy cringe his ass off.

>>5490086
>mmmm, seems like a quite hostile response to my little innocuous question ohoho
fuck off you toffee-nosed snob

>>5490108
I wasn't even the anon that asked the question. I'm genuinely confused by why you took such offense to what he asked.
You guys are so quick to assume the worst.

>>5490116
Who the fuck do you think you are asking about my records? I'll fuck you up kid FUCKING WATCH YOURSELF

>>5487989
There's absolutely nothing wrong with living like that... But if you are then why not just live in an RV or a motel?

I mean, live wherever you want, but why would you want to spend so much money on an apartment if you're going to be so simple?

>>5489930
>>5490086
>>5490108
>>5490116
>>5490464
FYI that hostile dude is not me, the records are real, I found them in dumpsters, any that I'm actually interested in listening to are in crates

>>5490464
>Anon invites friend over to his house
>Shows his friend around
>"Oh cool, anon! Where'd you get those records?" as he looks up, pointing to the ceiling
>Anon flies into a fit of rage, assaulting his once friend

>>5490491
Kek

>>5490095
It's not a chick's house without some pretentious love or exploring bullshit sentence in cursive somewhere in the place.

>>5487989
A lot of guys dream of living this way and it's something women will never be able to understand. Having only what you need and dropping what you don't really makes you feel good.

>>5489675
>water bottle

>>5490503
exactly! you knew what I meant without me even telling you, my dude. I swear, the last thing I want in my life as a ugy are those shitty framed sayings on a wall with pretentious "feel-good messages". I especially dislike that on coffee mugs.

>>5488412
Retro gaming is hard work, son. No fun until after you beat Simon's Quest for the day. Although now that I think about it, a pegboard for your controllers might be kinda cool

>>5490863
Stop. I can already picture it in my mind. Black lettering on a piece of wood.

>>5487695
is that a fucking Edison Plug outlet? for fucks sake anon get a modern 3 prong at least.

>>5487989

It's hard to believe indeed.

lol

yes I have crts with real hardware, but believe it or not I have a lot of nostalgia for emulating too since that's how I first played these games.

>>5490503
>some pretentious love or exploring bullshit sentence in cursive somewhere in the place

Pic related.

>>5493365
imagine wanting a (you) this bad.

here ya go anon.

>>5487989
>First apartment, looked exactly like that. (All I had was a table, a CRT, my consoles, and a shelf for all my games
>GF moves in, we gradually start filling our apartment with useless, feminine shit.
>Wife my GF. It's dawned on her that we've only been hoarding stuff that we don't even want. Gradually shift back to our house looking minimalist again.

Women are dumb. And we're dumb for putting up with them.

Only positive to come out of all of this is we upgraded our chair to a couch.

>>5492229
They DO make small CRTs, you know. When I was a kid, I converted my closet into a "gaming room" sort of thing. All it had was a chair, and two shelves with a small CRT ontop of one in order to save space.

YOU CAN DO IT. I BELIEVE. Ultimately, CRTs don't take up that much more space than LCD screens.

>>5493682
I play my consoles on LCD monitor. I wanted to buy a modern TV for PS4 and Switch, but I don't have enough space. I rent one room with kitchen. And that room is like 12 square meters. All free walls are already taken by shelves with books, games and manga.

>>5493365
with that fucking awful aspec ratio too?

>>5490019
Should I keep it in my lap?

>>5493476
Why you gotta do me like that in every thread, maaaaaaan.

I actually lost track of that framed photo after the house fire but it’s somewhere, I’m gonna find a way to integrate it in my closet setup when I find it. PRECIOUS FUCKING MEMORIES

>>5488143
Looks like a waste because you have no games.

Just dusted and reorganized

>>5494517

nice collection

>>5493476

that pic is comfy as fuck

>>5494517
I hate when games are stored vertically stacked.. Makes it cumbersome to grab a game.

>>5494348
>Why you gotta do me like that in every thread, maaaaaaan.
IF I had a similar photo of friends, I would recreate it and put it in every one of my "battlestation" threads.

>>5494348
>I actually lost track of that framed photo after the house fire but it’s somewhere
At this point if I were you, I would find it and display it with pride. I know it is totally offtopic, but how bad was the fire, and are things well afterward?

>>5494348
ignore the others, stay true to your spirit and be proud of your friendship.

>>5494517
looks like a rainbow of colours,loving the setup. now im thinking of putting my games on a shelf just so that id be nice, right now theyre all in a treasure-chest furniture and im not sure if thats a good idea

Same pic as last time.

>>5488143
you are a vital member of our organization

>>5494835
Still max comfy

>>5494517

>>5488143
This will never not annoy me because of the entertainment center blocking the door. I guess it's not one you use very often. Otherwise, pretty stylish.

I'm in the same boat, I feel like it's always the same handful people posting so I don't like to spam mine too much, but I'll contribute, I guess. Old pic, but not much has changed besides me finally cleaning out that box of random shit to the right.

Why do y'all plug out your controllers? Seems like a waste of time having to plug them in and plug them out again. I thought it was just some form of autism but so many people do it it can't all be random retardation?

>>5495753
I used to leave them plugged in and just laying in the floor when I was young and stupid but that just lead to a lot of dirty and broken controllers. Now I like unplugging them and keeping them tidy. Plus it takes like no time to do, how bad are your motor skills?

>>5495753
Makes it easier to ravel the cord up, and I don't want controller wires all over my floor when I'm not using them.
>waste of time
As long as you're not a literal mongoloid with zero hand eye coordination, it takes literally less than a second to plug a controller in.
>y'all
Go the fuck back to plebbit you shitskin wannabe.

>>5495753
>sitting down and playing a 20-something-year-old video game intended for children for multiple hours on end
>ok
>unplugging your controller between sessions
>"waste of time"
fucking kek

I'd post a picture of my battlestation...

But it's just a table in the corner with a TV and a computer on it, and a comfy chair. Right now I have a SNES, A PS2, and a modded XBox 360 plugged into it.

>>5495798
Games made 20 years ago were not made for children. If you want to pretend they were that's fine but it won't change the reality.

Even if there was something wrong with the hobby, at least it's doing something better than a random, purposeless ritual that has no meaning.

>>5494835
fuckin nice anon

>>5495791
>>y'all
>shitskin
Go fuck yourself yankee faggot

>>5495753
I have a basket of neatly organized controllers. I'm 36, I'm not down to have controllers everywhere on my floor like a kid. My fiance would hate it even more.

t. Adult

>>5494591
- Off topic response -

Fire wasn’t that bad, the ceiling fan in a bathroom literally exploded. I was about to take a shower in that bathroom when it happened so I was able to get the fire fighters there early.

Except it took 8 months to get it fixed because the rents got some under the table shady fuck to be the contractor and he dragged dick to do literally anything.

A month after I get home I get Guillain-Barré and I’m in the hospital now for the third time. Not good times for resi-anon. Right now I’m sharing a room with an old Mexican guy and his adult kids are here all day from morning till afternoon and never shut the fuck up. And they talk LOUD. Sound like they are on heroin too. Fuck it because the hospital I was just transferred from I was a room away from two elderly stoke victims that became belligerent after the stroke. One kept saying hallelujah literally all day and the other kept trying to leave and would scream constantly. Either telling the staff they should kill themselves or HELLLP HEEEELP CALL THE POLICE when they tried to lead her back into her room.

at least I got the negro low level staff to wipe my ass for me. Being racist and bedridden has those kind of perks I guess.

>keeping your possessions safe and organized and your home clean
>"random, purposeless ritual that has no meaning."
It's uber-obvious that you're baiting for shits, but I'm gonna guess you still live in your parents' basement and only shower once a week because you don't see a "purpose" for it.

Actually, right now, most of my controllers are plugged in and all over the floor because a few nights ago I was just playing random shit on every system and switching every 10 or 15 minutes. But when I'm focused on beating one game, I usually keep the other controllers raveled and out of the way, because a clean home is a happy home.

>>5495997
>My fiance would hate it even more.
I'm actually the tidy one between my wife and myself, mostly because my mother is a hoarder, and living in constant clutter began to stress me out when I was a kid.

>>5497529
I'm not "baiting for shits" at all. Controllers that are plugged in also can't get dust or moisture at the contact points, that is one reason I leave things plugged in if at all possible. I do live on my own though, guess you got me there. I was just being curious as I don't understand it.

>>5497658
>"I leave my controllers plugged in because I'm afraid of dust and moisture getting into the ports"
>calls other people "autistic"

>>5497665
That's just common sense

Cleaned up my Battle station the other day. I had a wii-u for the kids, but since they are pc snobs they refused to use it over the last 2 years. I boxed it up and put it into storage. I run all systems through a Phillips S-video/Component/composite switcher. All systems are s-video, as the TV doesn't have anything better.

Currently plugged in:

>Sony Scph-1001 w/pu-8 board.
>Neo Geo MVS
>Fire Orange N64
>Anniversary Edition Red Wii.

The sterilite drawers are segregated into 1 for each console and its peripherals. I have 2 other drawers that hold electronics tools like various screw kits, soldering irons, zip ties, and various cleaners.

>>5497665
It’s a pretty reasonable thing. You’re gonna use the controllers with the console anyways why unplug them?

>>5498042
Lmao @ the guys

>>5487989
Women have no taste. They'd buy shit until their apartment was full, just to satisfy their nesting.

Some snowflake really reported that reply I made to a question someone asked me. Offended that I said negro huh?

>>5488143
That entertainment center is bad ass. Was it in the family, you find it somewhere, or did you buy it? (and how much would that bad boy cost?)

>tfw no CRT

>>5488468
Yeah but they've got a Wavebird so idk

Best i can do with the curret space i have.

>>5501908

>>5502569
honestly that pic on the tv combined with all that unnecessary retro stuff might be a manifestation of a mental illness desu.

>>5488174
This is shitty, but I kinda like it.

>>5494835
This is me, I moved my setup today into the same basement room as my PC. It's tight, but temporary until I build a new entertainment unit.

>>5503462
I like how sensor bars look when photographed.

Been working on making it look better. (Yes, that includes a new form of sitting...)

>>5494517
definitely looks more like its set up for visual enjoyment instead of for actually playing the games. I assume you have an ugly beard, glasses, and drink s.0.y.

>>5501912
are those frames sturdy?
for some reason it just looks like something is bound to fall
>>5502569
the pixel art on the wall of the adventure dragon is too much. also just looks like its from some exhibit in a strange museum.
>>5503462
where do you keep the games?
>>5503695
looks cramped. nice collection
>>5487695
get a rug or something and an upholstered chair. also those puke green shelves are awful.
>>5488143
i love seeing this setup. looks like everything has a place that was made for it.
>>5488174
low effort but efficient i guess. looks like it has taken up important counter space and now the tv has become the counter space.
>>5489632
looks very uncomfortable and like its in the way of the doorway. cant really tell.
@5493365
you dont deserve the (you) you wanted to get with this post.
>>5494517
see >>5503985
>>5494835
great setup. very nice
>>5494878
looks like you took the console out of your storage closet just to take a picture.
>>5495605
remove pixel art link. otherwise it looks very nice. a little too nice and like it belongs in a catalog, but still nice.

>>5504014
>remove pixel art link
I wouldn't have bought it myself, but it was a gift from a friend and I've kind of grown fond of having it there. Plus it lights up and is kind of cozy at night.

The real issue is that this shit is empty, your living space isn't a 1:1 into who you are but it sure does give an idea. having a single chair and a TV makes it look like that's your only hobby and you have no aspiration for anything else. it make you seem like you don't care about yourself all that much. The simple fact that this tweet gets people this mad is proof of this. because if they people live what they preach about "just haven' what I need" then this tweet should be laughable to them.

>>5504586
Or that you flare not fulfilled by possessions and spend most of your time out in nature or out with friends.

>tfw no battlestation, just one 32 inch lcd tv
>SNES, N64 and GC, plus gaems, all from when I was a lad, tucked awqy in a plastic box, only take it out to play every now and then
>still browse these threads to get jelly and dream of having a proper battlestation someday

Why do y'all shut your TVs, monitors and game systems off? Seems like a waste of time having to turn them all on and off again. I thought it was just some form of autism, but so many people do it it can't all be random retardation?

>>5504586
>makes it look like that's your only hobby and you have no aspiration for anything else
The only thing having a well-decorated home says you have an aspiration for is decorating.

>>5488143
Sorry I kind of forgot about this thread. Here to answer questions.

>>5488447
Yes.

>>5488638
Thanks. I need to take more pictures, with maybe different games. I will try to tonight.

>>5490014
Great SD set with component. One thing you won't miss is carrying it from your truck to your game room.
