Don't take it too hard though; it's an impressive collection for sure. I think you should leave the modern HD consoles on that shelf hooked up to the big TV, and set up a dedicated retro area with enough shelf space for the retro consoles and CRT.
What do you mean by Playstation TV? You mean one of those "PSOne" branded consoles with the tiny clamshell screen attached?

Try harder!
I know you know this is a fucking killer setup. I'm so jelly of those CRTs.
Looks like you kept the cables in the back pretty well under control too.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jul 17 17:44:39 2017 No.4127879 >>4127714 That's one too many CRT TV's. You need to simplify it by just one. Have a shelf to store your games on. The other should be for your stereo. Only use your best CRT TV, sell the other ones.

I certainly wouldn't want them any smaller given that there's in excess of 200lb on that little IKEA bedside table...

Anyhow, I'm in rented accommodation for the time being so the choice of flooring is the landlord's, not mine. Hoping to get on the property ladder within 12 months though so the battlestation situation should improve as soon as I can devote more space to it.

Oh shit, forgot about my 20" Profeel too. She won't be happy...

Thanks man, the room's definitely only got space for single player action though if you know what I mean.

I used to do this on /g/ all the time. People love it because they all get a little individual attention. I understand this because I have a good grasp of human emotions and motivations.

The criticisms are obviously tongue in cheek. I used to pull shit like blatantly ignoring a room full of dildos to point out one stray crumb on the floor.

Mostly so I can rebuff people on the internet who say they're unattainable these days.

The most expensive item in that setup (by a factor of 6 no less) is the PS2 and everything except that console was purchased in the past 12 months.
