Looks like a great place to play games, and drink some beers. What's with the Dracula's pub sign?

Ha!  I originally bought that because I was in the market for a Dracula pinball machine.  Was going to use it as a topper and still will once I have one.

Wow, nice collection and nicely displayed! Is it weird that the first thing I noticed is that you have two copies of the Mad Magazine Board Game? That was a great little game.

Ha!  Yeah, when I find good board games at thrift stores for cheap, I just go ahead and pick them up.  If you would like one of them, let me know and we can work something out.

Thanks for the offer but I already have a copy.  Grin Was part of my original "board game collection" hobby which I still visit from time to time.

Looks good banana.  The shelves look very clean.  Super cool controller wall too.

Great set up banana. Of course I like the Famicom stuff. I'm not sure if I would ever put end labels on, but I can understand why.

The shelving for your systems looks very nice. I appreciate the clean look.

Yeah, I use the labels as a means of being able to find a game I want to play quicker and so that visitors don't have to pull out all of my games to look at a certain one.  I use a cheap label maker for them; the adhesive is very clean and the labels are super easy to remove if I ever need or want to.  It does take away for the natural appearance somewhat and I understand.  My Fami, 5200, and N64 games are not creatures living in their natural habitat.  Ha!

Have you thought about using totes?

I numbered my totes, and made a note of which game is in each tote. This makes it easy to find a game even if it is in a different language.

That's a pretty neat system, but I kind of prefer mine out in the open.  Also, I don't want to have to keep up with a list in terms of what tub each is located in.  The games I use labels for are not associated with systems that I primarily collect for, so this system works best for me.  I like your idea though, since you get more bang for your buck out of shelves.  With tubs, you can use the entire shelf, where with my display, I only get to use a portion of my shelves.  If my collection grows beyond the confines of what I have, I may have to store my loose games like this.
