December 2015 stuff: X-mas countdown is nearing the end.

I spent 3 hours hooking back up all my systems on my new shelf.

I found a Gaems Vanguard on Craigslist from a local military guy for $100! Despite some cosmetic scratches to the shell (and missing the Xbox One/PS4 foam insert) the thing is in great shape, especially for the price!

I still need to hook everything up, I need to get a HDMI splitter, with HCTPwhatever removal, and a splitter to go to the capture card and TV, as the Capture Card pass though does not work when it's not powered.
I may toy with layout more, I think the PS3 can use more ventilation, same with the 360. The Gamecube and Gen32x don't need to be there.
The Genesis/Pwrbase/CD is on top due to it needing the most vertical space. The Famicom could use more space, I may move the Disk System.

Looks good. The only problem with that type of shelving is that it's a lot harder to hide all of the wires in the back. You'll have to post pictures with everything hooked up.

Awesome! I love randomly naming the Duo R when someone asks me what consoles I have. "Oh, an NES, Sega Genesis, PS2, PC Engine Duo R..."
Also, I highly recommend getting an extension cable for the controller. They are a standard old Mac cable and are super cheap / easy to find compared to the US TG extension cables.

It's funny you should mention that, as one of our Chinese suppliers sent a number of samples a few months back which included TG16/PCE to Duo & Duo to TG16/PCE adapter cables. So now I have a REALLY long extension that I can use with the Duo or TG16, not to mention as adapters :D
