I am new here but I must say this is a great site. I stumbled upon the site looking for cases for my N64 games and I got all the info I needed. You guys have been a great help!!!!

Here is a link to my Room, I just took a some quick pictures. It is a tiny room, but I'll be buying a new house shortly so I am hoping to have an entire basement full of fun soon. For the time being I am trying to keep as much stuff as I can hidden away. It is hard though in such a small room. Let me know what you guys think. This is just a handful of stuff, I have a ton more PS1, PS2 and Xbox stuff in the closet that I need to get orgainzed but I am running out of room.

Welcome to the project Adam.
That's a nice collection you got there. Used the given room pretty well, too. I'm sure when you finished with your new basement it'll look awesome.
Say, looking at your movies I saw that the spines from the Halloween DVDs resemble the mask and that your A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday 13th DVDs resemble the Freddy Vs Jason artwork. Are these the retail DVDs or did you create the spines yourself? I think they look awesome. Not enough to rebuy my Nightmare and Friday boxsets but I only own Halloween I+II so getting these DVDs is very tempting :)
Again, impressive collection!
-
very nice collection! :)
it looks to me that your sega cd and sega saturn games are all in dvd cases.
do you have some covers that aren't on the site?
-
looks very nice, very neat, something that my game room is deffinately not most of the time.

The freddy vs jason splines were not done by me, they are on a dvd cover site I am a member of. http://www.generetic.org/ (http://www.generetic.org/) It is a pay site but they have some really great scanned covers and some really awesome custom covers as well.
I did do the spiderman, batman, starwars, x-men and a few other splines myself though.

I did all my own Saturn and Sega CD cases before I found this site. I made my own Template up and scanned all my original cases. Once I found this site I realized I did far more work then I needed too, but oh well. I really enjoy makeing covers and things so i t was still worth it. I had a Nintendo 64 case template almost set up too, until I found you guys. (grin)

Great looking room you have there. I wish I had one like that, but I have 2 other people staying in my room so it won't be possible. :P Ah well....

Thanks I actually just bought a house and I am working on my new basement. Here are some pictures, some are sub par taken with the phone:
I am trying to keep everything hidden away for this room for a cleaner movie theater look. To do this, all of my AV components and newer system with wireless controllers (Wii, 360, PS3, PS2, Xbox) are all installed in the closet of the room hidden away. I had to figure something out for the older systems though since the controllers won't reach from the closet to the couch. my solution was a cabinet I modified to store my gaming systems. I have a NES, SNES, N64, Jaguar, Saturn, Genesis/Sega CD and a 3do in the cabinet. I have all the power and av cables routed inside the cabinet so no wires can be seen. I have 2 4x system selector boxes mounted behind the center speaker to handle system selection. In the bottom of the AV closet I have mounted shelves to hold my games. I have also bought a dresser to store my DVD's, I took a Ikea dresser and beefed up the drawers a little. I have a long way to go still, I have more wires to hide, decorating to do. I still have to build a screen for my projector and a riser for the stadium seating, but I am getting there. Let me know what you think.

I love the cabinet that your old systems are in. One day I'll have a media room to tuck all my "crap" into.
-
Sweet set-up! I'm looking into doing the same thing, I hope mine turns out as nice as yours.
-
That's a nice set up ya got there! Are you going with an old school sloped floor or stadium style seating?
-
I am going to just built a 8-10" riser and have some seating behind the couch I have.
-
What did you use for the shelves for your games. Is it wood you painted? The black looks cool.
-
They are wood shelves made by Rubbermaid. You can get them at Home Depot in all different colors.

It's the same ones I used when I lived in florida. There a little bit more expesing than standard shelves, but well worth the money.

I've been wanting to post this for a little wile now.
I know that my setup is not as impressive as other's, but being that I move every few years I think this is the best it will get for now.
The consoles (Nintendo Wii is upstairs because my sister's kids have been using it wile visiting during summer vacation)

The wall of Media (cartridges and Turbo duo games are boxed until I build more shelves) (notice the Sole gamecube game I have)
(http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc318/Vt102/media.jpg)
BTW. You guys might also notice that a few of the cases have no cover. I'm working on that.

NICE VT! I didnt realize there were that many 3DO games?? A quick question- where do you hide all your controllers? Im in the process of building a room for my systems and games and I've got plans for some nice shelves, but I'm not sure what to do with my stash of controllers?
-
Quite the Anime collection you got there. First thing I noticed was the Robotech, Macross, and Mospeada. Didn't see Southern Cross, but some of those Spines are hard to read.

I keep all the controllers and cables in the closet directly to the left of the games and movies (you can see the edge of the door). They are in some Rubermaid plastic drawer I got at Home Depot. I have to eventually have some decent storage set for them.
BTW. There are a lot more 3DO games than the onces I have. In fact there are as many games for 3DO as there are for Sega CD. 230+ worldwide including edu and multimedia titles (ooh and some softcore adult titles too).

I have Southern Cross, But it was not on the wall when I took the photo. Macross Zero is missing too. But Flashback 2012, Macross Plus and Macross 7 are there.
And I'm itching to get Macross Frontier on DVD ;D
-
I need to watch more Macross Frontier, only really seen the first episode

Are all the covers you have for 3DO on the site? There are a few Im looking for but I cant find any where. Mad Dog McCree, Super Wing Commander, Syndicate, Madden Football, Microcosm, Wailiae Golf. You wouldnt happen to have them would you?

How's this for SWC? Not fully done yet, I think i'll have it finished by tomorrow.

P.S. Most of the 3do games on my wall were made a long time ago with bad scans and bad skills... =)
-
Looks great. Your covers are always impressive.
-
Are those other scans I uploaded too bad to do anything with? Madden and Microcosm.

There very good scans actually. I just have not had much time to work on 3DO.. I have been working on and off on cleaning the front of psychic detective.
