@CodysGameRoom hella jealous of your arcade marquees too, some bangers.

 

I would love an xmen so bad

Yea, I got that one many moons ago and it's beat up, but it is authentic. I do have some reproduction marquees for display but I love having a few real ones. My favorite is the Fighting Vipers despite it being very heavy glass and easily breakable haha

Finally upgraded the modern TV stand in the game room and moving the old one to our future in home gym (plan on playing the old Xbox One while on the bike/treadmill).

Next project: Retro TV stand 

Anyone have suggestions on hiding cables?

What I do with cables is hook them in one by one and twist tie them together so they come together evenly. I got some like Velcro things that I used for the gaming area. They have command strips that hold wires you could put along the edges of the cube shelf but i think a white piece of finishing board w.e it's called behind the cube shelf is probably what you need. Then just drill or Dremel out holes for the wires.

Most hardware stores will

It's already sort of been suggested, but most hardware stores will sell sheets of white hardboard that is approximately 1/8" thick in 4' x 8' sizes.  That would make a perfect back for the shelves that would match the white.  All you would need to do is cut to size and drill small holes into each cube for the wires.  In addition, it will actually make the shelf more rigid.

My wife and I recently moved and now no longer have a finished basement, so I've been slowly unpacking and organizing the collection one weekend at a time.

 

The current state of things as of 6/13/2022 - We're at 619/767 NES games. 329 of which are CIB, the rest are C or CI. You'll also see other consoles/games mixed in, I just don't have any shelving with the move so I had to pack everything in.

I've got a lot of organizing to do before I can show pics of all my shelves. But for now, here are some pics of my GameCube collection:

This is my Wii U collection I've been building over the last two years. 👍

1182657212_WiiUgames.png.a01fb6a094f659edbde25a8cc97cadc7.png

It may not look like much, but it's actually 14% of the the North American library. 😅 I'm still looking for Mario Party 10, Mario Kart 8, and Mario Tennis Ultra Smash.

Not pictured are Skylanders and amiibo.

You can have my Mario Tennis if you pay shipping. I don't seem to have the other two anymore.

That's very generous, but I'd feel a little more comfortable paying through a service like eBay. Thanks for offering though!🙂 👍

You'd be paying via Paypal with buyer protection, but if buying/selling on here isn't something you're interested in I can respect that. It'd prob only cost like $10 to send to you which is why I offered (and I'll never touch it). FYI we do have a feedback system on here (link); trades, purchases, sales are all pretty common. 

Again though, zero pressure. Just want you to be aware of all the stuff available on the site as a new user, and I find that sending new folks free games is a decent way to give them a no-stress glimpse into the processes in place.

Game and wario has skyrocketed in price and I'm sad I missed it when it was around the 50$ mark. Nice choices Lynda!!

Thanks! 😁

Yeah, I have no clue why it jumped so hard, but I was able to find it for about $60 a couple years back. In all honesty you're not missing much, as it's not that good of a game. 😅  WarioWare is a series that somehow sticks around, but I feel like the GBA games were the only ones that were any good. I feel like people just don't want to let go of the characters, so the series has survived on that more than its gameplay.

hahah I love the huge inhaling kirby. What is that yellow hardhat? Nice setup

The inhaling Kirby is a cat bed for our smallest cat ironically named Kirby (not intentional at all).

 

The hard hat is a promo item from Super Mario Builder. There is a Luigi version too!

Updated my OLED TV to a full projector setup! Massive step up from my (now seemingly puny) 55" TV to a 120" screen! 😄

Got an ultra short throw projector to avoid a bunch of wiring in the attic and drilling into the ceiling for the mount. It just sits there on the TV stand right in front of the screen. Also got a receiver and 5.1 speaker setup.
