Title: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on January 02, 2013, 03:10:08 AM i cleaned my game room and decided it was time to update my collection profile pictures. the old ones were over a year old at least. i wanted to have them show the room in a clockwise order, but i couldn't figure out how to sort the pics if that's even possible...so they're shuffled, but still look good.
http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/collection.pl?name=techwizard&action=profile&folder=Collection edit: the display case is empty because i'm washing the cloth that the games sat on, there will be N64 stuff in there once it's back. Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: cverz2 on January 02, 2013, 06:32:53 AM Very Nice. I love all the N64 Boxed games. Looks cool. I can't ever find CIB N64 games around here unless they are sports and wrestling.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: Johnny Nintendo on January 02, 2013, 11:16:50 AM That looks very awesome Techwizard. I also love the look of all the CIB N64 games arranged on the shelf.

Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on January 02, 2013, 01:10:34 PM i think the killzone poster was just from walmart actually, it was a long time ago though so i could be wrong.

Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: monkees19 on January 02, 2013, 07:18:33 PM You've inspired me to update my pics. Nothing fancy.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on January 03, 2013, 03:01:40 AM Very Nice. I love all the N64 Boxed games. Looks cool. I can't ever find CIB N64 games around here unless they are sports and wrestling. a really big chunk of them came from a video store that was selling out all their n64 stuff (a lot CIB) for only a few dollars each. condition was really bad on quite a few, but enough were good that it was worth it. i think i bought at least 30 from that alone. otherwise i've been fairly lucky about finding local CIB n64 stuff, i've picked up some here and there. a lot of them were online though, especially as i had less and less of the popular ones to get. Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: Crabmaster2000 on January 03, 2013, 03:09:23 AM I'll chime in on how awesome those boxed N64 games look too! Nice and tidy, very organized, I like it. Also jealous of that sweet Neo Geo Cab :D
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: wildbil52 on January 03, 2013, 11:43:54 AM Classy. Love the setup. I have the same panini press.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: Addicted on January 04, 2013, 07:30:38 AM Nice set up and use of space. What's your favorite N64 game?
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on January 04, 2013, 03:48:28 PM toss up between ocarina of time and super mario 64. close second would be jet force gemini...or maybe majora's mask.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on March 04, 2013, 12:01:31 AM going to need new game room pictures soon...i finally decided to build my own custom shelves for the game room. they're pretty basic but they're sturdy and the perfect height for all but my big box games. i'm building 3 separate 3' wide by 6' 7" or so high units, i finished 1 so far and will do the other 2 on wednesday. not sure if i'll ever paint or stain them, but they don't look too bad as is so i may leave it. just need to sand some edges a bit.

Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on March 06, 2013, 09:59:42 PM thanks :) like i said they're going to need updating soon once i finish building my custom shelves.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on March 07, 2013, 05:40:41 PM finished all 3 shelving units! the boards are still damp on some of them from being out in the rain at the lumberyard. once they're dry and the games are all up i'll post some pics.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on March 09, 2013, 04:50:50 AM project complete :) besides some cleanup.

Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: Fleach on March 09, 2013, 08:43:37 AM Wicked! That looks great. So neat and organized. I can't wait for the weather to warm up so I can build a book case.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: Sauza12 on March 09, 2013, 11:32:11 AM Is that Neo Geo cab converted from a Midway cab? I've never seen one like that before. It could be because I love the Midway style cabinets, but I think I might like that better than the normal version.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: blcklblskt on March 09, 2013, 12:31:59 PM Awesome collection. I love the N64 stuff!

I like the Paper Mario just poking out there. Also like how you've basically hidden Final Fantasy X-2 because it wasn't able to come out of FF X's shadow. ;) Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: techwizard on May 10, 2013, 02:22:18 PM Looks awesome!

XII is behind X too on the left. Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: h1ghw1nd on May 10, 2013, 05:12:25 PM Room looks sick! The N64 stuff, like everyone else said, is killing it!
FFX is badass. I still haven't played X-2. Bought it when it came out o_O Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: wildbil52 on May 10, 2013, 07:49:17 PM You'll have another chance to play it later this yet when the HD re master comes out.
Title: Re: updated game room pics Post by: h1ghw1nd on May 10, 2013, 08:19:03 PM ^ Exactly, I've been wanting to replay X but I'm waiting on the HD!
