Alright you little autist. I am strapped for space, and in terms of decor, you try living with a womyn. I won't cede the chair though, because it's comfy as hell and in amazing condition for being 50+ years old.

The TV has wheels though, so I can move it anytime.

Every time you post this, I get triggered by the RE2 picture you framed. Completely ruins the vibe of your room. Framing posters is tacky in general but you framed a picture you presumably printed out yourself with the white borders still visible. The contrast is just ugly and makes it stick out in a bad way. I don't know how you thought that would be a good idea or look good.

Yeah, I'd say 27". I grew up playing on a 20", and use a 20" now because it's an RGB monitor, but it could certainly be bigger. I had a friend with a gorgeous 36" JVC he got in the early 2000s, but it was absurdly heavy. (After he moved out of his parents' place, the TV is still sitting in his old room collecting dust because nobody wants to try and get it down the stairs), and I had two different 32" sets that were still too fuckin' heavy, even though I could kind of manage moving them by myself. 27" is still heavy, but not quite as cumbersome, definitely a good balance. I would never want anything smaller than a 20", though.

There was only a dark patch in my life of about 1 year from 2014 to 2015 when I didn't own any kind of CRT.

the frame is just a little too big lenthwise. its a real poster and not printed out with white showing...i though i pointed this out to you before. im not worried about the white showing if its symmetrical, and until i find a frame to fit this oddly dimensioned poster thats just how its going to be. also, putting up posters with thumbtacks and tape is even more tacky and if you can frame it, thats always going to be the better option. if i had to nitpick anything from the room it would be the atrocious wires on the ground out in the open.

LCD for modern (shit) stuff. CRT runs the Dreamcast, original Xbox and PS2. I might have to move the Xbox to the LCD though, seems like softmodding makes it overscan like crazy on a CRT.

You'll probably catch a lot of shit from the haters, but this is a great setup. I'm not personally a fan of LED lighted shelving, but it's very well done. IMO the only thing that needs changed is the lcd needs to be a crt, but again, that's personal preferences.

What's that console on the bottom right? Where do you store your controllers? What are you using to hook them up to the tv?

I really do like your setup, keep up the good work!

I'm currently working on converting a 2x2 cube shelf into a better looking and functioning "gaming center". I plan on removing one vertical divider and mounting a 13" bvm in the top section and totally modifying the layout of the shelving. There should end up being 4 "cubby holes" to hold various consoles.

One shelf will hold toploader NES and SNES 101, next shelf will be Genesis model 3 and PC Engine, lower shelves will be N64 on one, and Saturn + Dreamcast on the other. If Saturn and DC won't fit, I'll put the Master system there and those on top of the unit. Also the top will hold an Atari Jr. Right beside the monitor will be PS2 on one side and Wii on the other. I have an idea to manage cords and am going for a clean look. I'm sick of the snakepit that is going on now. I may actually reserve one shelf for a switcher or something too, I've not fully decided on the layout but it has to be clean as hell.

I'm not the best "carpenter" but this thing has to look right, I don't care if I have to redo it 10 times to get it right.

Find and gut an period specific radio and turn it into a small cabinet for your vidya. I like the recycling of the console.

I always liked console tvs. They have a very fun period specific feel that adds to the "comfyness" of it.

If she would buy off on one of those shitty crosley all in one record players, you could just gut it and hide the consoles in that. Crosleys are shit and this is probably the only use for them. Don't play records on them unless you want damaged records.

Oh yes, the TV is woodgrained. I pick up one whole channel with the rabbit ears, as well.

I do have a HDMI to RCA converter for the PS4 but, you're right, the result is not great. For the time being, this is my only television, which is why I'd like to get a flatscreen.

I don't know how strapped for cash you are, but if you're just looking for a 32" TV they're pretty inexpensive. I'd recommend going to your local Best Buy or Wal-Mart and looking at open box sets, they don't really list them too well online, and they have good deals on them.

If you are on the lookout for a set, be sure that it either comes with a remote or is above a certain SW number (4.7 I think. It's on the sticker on the back) because older models can only the models above that number can use 3rd party remotes... and It's not like a normal TV where there are any buttons on the TV itself to switch AV inputs or get to a service menu.

How can you make a coctail if you've only got two types of alcohol? Do you expect everyone to only have mixed drinks at bars for 200% the price of materials?
Or what about people that enjoy scotch or whiskey or wine and collect expensive bottles and vintages?
What about people that pick up something new to try out each time they go to the store, and end up with like 5 bottles of stuff they don't like?

I was in the process of moving when I took that picture. It was "everything". I went through storage and tested EVERYTHING. Sold off redundant stuff, and kept the goods. Took apart every system and dusted it out. It was tedious. Cataloged, and stored as necessary for the next decade.

The vials and shit is vape juice because I am a filthy addict.

Here is my current mess. getting ready to receive a Officially licensed SNES controller for the red wii.

That does look like the same emerson, and I was impressed with it. I switched to the samsung because of the component and composite input. Wii works great.

No, there's a fireplace just to the left of what you can see in the picture with a big ol' flat panel TV mounted above it. You can see the corner of the hearth poking out right next to the laserdisc player. No, nothing is installed close enough to the fireplace to get hot or smokey-smelling. Maybe square tiles are an unusual choice for a "rec room" like this, but I assure you it looks fine as a whole, not bathroom-like at all in person.

Its normal to keep a glass or two stored with a bottle of scotch, and its also normal to have said bottle and glasses sitting out on a table or shelf or something. one of the glasses in that pic is a scotch glass.
There are three bottles of wine, one of which is a duplicate of the other, meaning one is probably low or empty. The other bottle of wine is probably a lighter wine or a bottle of champagne or something.
The final two bottles are beer bottles that someone has already been drinking out of or finished.

Looks like a normal spread for 2-3 normal people. Plus I'm pretty sure I see a purse strap in the background. If it was all guys, or people who didn't intend to go home that night, there'd be a lot more empty bottles sitting out.

Model 1 has the best sound, but to get stereo out of it you have to use the 3.5mm jack on the front of the console, not the normal A/V connector.

So when you say "vaulted ceiling" do you mean that the ceiling curves upward in a semicircle shape, like an old roman ruin or something? Or just that it slopes upward linearly like a roofline (since you mention it used to be an attic)?

For gaming across the room, you're thinking exactly the right size. Generally bigger is better unless for room size or weight considerations. Honestly, just find one for free on craigslist/facebook marketplace/on the curb that has the inputs you want. Something with component and s video is good.

Sharp made good ones, sony trinitrons, pretty much any brand is ok though. Wega is kind of a meme but they were pretty good. Honestly, just find one with the size and hookups you want and don't pay over $40 or so and you're golden.

I'm just saying, some of you guys have your setups well organized, wondering how women react.

Wine and sushi or chinese food? I have an ok battle station, but its very spartan in appearance, but it's in a guest room, I always keep the door locked when I have a woman over, last thing I want is a woman in my game room touching my stuff and god help her if she made fun of me, liable to lose it.

I have five hundred records and a very expensive esoteric audiophile setup in my living room attached to my television unit, and not a single person has given a shit about my records, selection, taste, or interest in music or the equipment therein. If you don't focus around it all the time, it will just become like any other furniture. That is typically how individual hobbies operate.

Essentially, of you've padded your personality with several traits Andy interests, nobody will be weird about your interests. Its only if video games are your ONLY interest. Then you're the shut in that chooses anime or games over a night out sipping tea, or a few beers, or water, whatever with a couple friends, despite knowing the video games aren't going anywhere.

Anon, despite what "redpill" guys would have you believe, women are people too. They will react differently, depending if they have any interest in the subject or not. How would you feel if a woman talked to you about a childhood NES or riding horses, archery, or shoe shopping? Probably interested to not interested depending on what you find interesting. If you find a woman is really vacant or dumb, you'll probably not enjoy a long term relationship unless you like to feel superior or like the smart one in a relationship.

You seem too worried about what people think of you. I'll assume you're young. Honestly people live their lives and barely think about anyone not in their sight. It's also the reason people are so mean and nasty at places like wal-mart. They are so distracted by the constant stream of stress inducing thoughts and distractions in their own brain to even see other people as people. You need to learn flow and living in the movement. Maybe try clearing your mind with meditation or something. Life is too short to worry about how others perceive you all the time, especially when there's a 99.9% chance they aren't even thinking about you.

Also, not that you said anything of the sort, but another lesson is, people aren't against you. They are independent beings just like you doing what they feel is best for their life. If someone is just nasty they aren't worth spending time on. They may grow out of it with maturity or may never change. Surround yourself with good people and don't be afraid to be laughed at. If you want to paint, do it, even if it looks like a 5 year old did it, it's still interesting to look at and it's the process of doing things and experiences that matter in the end.

As far as what you feed them, it depends on the person. The things you mention seem too try-hard to be honest. A pizza or a meal based on chicken would probably be a decent bet. If she demands wine with meals that would be a red flag to me.

And here is how it works; little pop-up hole and my computer hangs upside down in there. The back faces up with all the ports available. Typically I'd actually play with a wireless 360 controller instead of a steam one because the steam one is kind of a pain in the arse to configure outside steam.

On my actual screens I'm typically coding emulator front end library shit. One day I might play a game after all that effort.

I like that it looks like you've put some thought to hiding cables. As an anti-cable-fag I think you are just a few steps away from having a nice clean setup. I like that your controllers are seperate to your consoles. I assume they are stashed out of sight until needed? I've got little rectangle baskets that contain each console's periphirals stacked out of sight in cupboards under the entertainment cabinet. When I want to play something (typically N64) the basket comes out and everything is there. It goes back in the basket after playing.

Ditching the wireless rack eventually and having a wider solid wood cabinet that hides your cables would be an improvement; but reasonable that you wouldn't just go out and buy furniture on my account. I lucked out (in a good way) and got a large coffee table with drawers built in. The drawers hold baskets with games and controllers. It's excellent to pull out a set of Wii motes and hand them around without standing up; have the console boot itself and just switch TV channel - bam you are playing a game.

Personally I'd ditch the amiibo showcase but obviously they mean a lot to you.

That is very crisp, and orderly. I do enjoy your choices, and think we could share long conversations about how our taste is much better then everyone elses.

I got all my controllers unboxed from our recent move and checked them. Somehow my son destroyed 3 out of 4 Xbox controllers. I have a green one that is barely used, and in the mail I have a few OEM ones+ a duke this week. I don't have nearly the software collection, as I have migrated to space savings of SD cards and hard drives.

You have a similar "small-ish" area for systems. Where/how do you manage your controllers? I have a small tote nearby that has light guns and controllers of all shapes and sizes, but hate it. Id love to have some side table that has everything.

It is my only issue...controllers. I hate winding the wires up around them, so I hoop them ....they get all jiggered up in the box, and end up making knots anyway.

That is how I usually buy. In bulk and possibly not working box lots. Most of the controllers that have been destroyed were things that didn't work when I got them. I get really goofy about used electronics. I take everything apart day one and clean, and wipe everything. I havn't been able to get out in months, and with moving I was trying to reduce the space I take up. In a way it is sweet that they are all broke. I managed to save a really nice green shell,so it wasn't a a total loss. Plus the hot sticker right on the middle top of the tv.

I think they don't sell because people buy the aftermarket ones. I never used an aftermarket, and question the quality. Sure I just talked about my kid busting my xbox controllers, but it really took both of us and a previous owner 18 years to do it if you look at the big picture. I gave my brother my 250 gb and he uses the generics, I may have to compare.

This is how it stands as of now. I've got more in the basement, but I'm gonna be lazy and not take a picture. The Genesis is with the 27xbr because it benefits the most from rgb, while the SNES, Saturn, and usually the ps2 are on an s-video switch on the big tv.
Things I've got to fix:
The apm speakers on the Sony are busted so I've got to refoam them
The geometry on the big tv is perfect but I've got to fix the convergence. If only I knew of a service menu, but I can't find information on it. The user manual lists the tv repair locations certified to work on this tv (in 1991), so I plan to call one that's still open and see if they've got anything.
One laserdisc player is broken, needs a fix.
The 27xbr's baby brother, the 20xbr, is all out of wack and needs more work than I think I can give it -- plus the tube is fairly worn out.

I didn't say he was a short manlet and would need an adult height bed like americans need. He clearly has no intention of sleeping next to a woman, based off your comment neither do you if you think only Americans get laid and need more bed space.

Fucking idiots making non Americans look like mouth breathing retards. Go away.

look, i get this image is all over the fucking internet, but i can't even begin to unironically state how terrible it is. first off, don't stack consoles. that's tacky. second, don't fucking run ANY pre gen 7 consoles into a FUCKING HD tv, but obviously, that shit doesn't matter to someone like you. I can tell by your setup, your only aim is wow factor, which would please any normies who don't know any better, but for us who actually play these games, who know that the reaction time to play mike tyson's punch out is impossible on a HD tv, to people who care about playing games in their proper 4:3 aspect ratio, that this set up is disgusting, pandering bullshit, for nothing more than reddit upvotes. also, where's the colecovision and intellivision? you disgust me.

bought one that was half broken about 6 months ago, took $15 to drop in a new laser and it runs like a champ.

very decent load times.

Metal Slug 1:
20 second initial load 7 second level loads

Real Bout 2 the Newcomers: 11 secondload per match about 5 seconds if both characters are the same.
