I wonder if it'd be cool if I arranged my games alphabetically (purely)

I'd like to see a picture of this

What if you just took series out and give them their own areas/shelves and left the rest grouped by system? That could be cool. I personally like to group by system as it seems more logical to me, but props for thinking outside the norm.

It'd be cool if we had the space to show the fronts of every single game we own, instead of just the spine. There's a lot of cool artwork that never gets shown. Kind of like comic books always being in long boxes instead of displayed on the wall.

Sigh...

I have seen a picture of this on here, reddit, or nintendoage.  The person actually did it my Company.  So all the sega stuff was organized with other sega stuff, and all the Nintendo stuff was with all the Nintendo stuff. :)  It actually looked ok.   Think about trying to find a game when organized by CONSOLE, it takes you a minute to find it, since all the spines look the same.  But when he organized by the whole company it make stuff pop out.  You'd easily find super Mario galaxy and the smashbrothers games, etc.  I'll see I can track it down.   The worst part of it was wasted space with some of the games, having a shelf larger than nessecary because there was 3 different sized cases to deal with.  But, you never have to re-do your shelving! :)
TDIRunner:
If you think about it, you could store just about everything in a UGC.  They are technically designed to hold CDs, so you could keep you disc based games in there as well (I would never do that myself).  Outside of Neo Geo AES gams, I can't think of anything that wouldn't fit in a UGC (some would require modification obviously).  It's an interesting diea, but at the end of the day, I much prefer to keep my stuff separated by system.

I keep mine organized by system, then alphabetically. I built my shelving units with two shelf sizes, one for DS cases/CDs, and one for DVD cases/ everything else. And yeah, the size difference would bother me. Very cool idea though. I like series-themed collections.
