Hello people, I've noticed now that even though I don't have an impressive game room, you have to admit I have a cool gaming shelf for someone who only spends alot on games. Now it has gotten onto the fourth stage of evolving so I thought I'll show you the evolution stages of my Shelf of Doom, reason calling that because really I don't have much of a gaming room, just my bedroom with posters on the wall and games all in one general area.

Shelf of Doom 0.1 - August 2008 to April 29 2009
This may not be the actual picture of what the shelf looked like with the games in it, basically this was it. The only thing that was different from the picture was two wicker baskets that the Megadrive games were kept. The worst thing was actually fitting all the games together since it was getting bigger.

Shelf of Doom 0.5 beta - April 29th 2009 to May 31st 2009
As mentioned in "New Storage", I thank my mum for helping me with this. From what I remember, these were originally shelves for her music. But she got new ones and asked me if I could use them, and I told her about my games needing better places to be kept so that's how I got these.

Shelf of Doom 0.5 - May 31st 2009 to July 29th 2009
I call this the final 0.5 version because really, this was a reorganising of my shelf. I started to notice that my collection was growing faster than usual at the time because of the car boot sale. So I had to reorganise my shelf to fit the extra games, this meant the MegaDrive and (eventually) the Master System game boxes with manuals inside of them had to go to the cupboard. It did mean I could fit more games but it was a bit of a hassle putting things in separate places.

Shelf of Doom 1.0 - July 29 2009 to present
I went to the local Junk shop with my mum, seeing if there were any games I was interested. There weren't, so I was about to leave, before we noticed that CD Tower. Mum asked how much was it and the guy said 2, and she couldn't resist giving him two gold pound coins. After thinking on where to put it, I decided to put it like it is in the picture. I can now fit 40 double box Mega CD games, less than what I can fit onto one of the wooden shelf but at least I can take them out easier.
So what do you think?
