[quote name='GenPirate']I would post mine but I still live at home with my parents so I would look like a packrat (everything is so cluttered and messy).[/QUOTE]
Yeah, come on, post it!!!!!!! I love seeing everyone's collections, no matter how cluttered!!!!
Well, this is mine at the apartment.. I am still working on migrating games over, so you won't see the Sega Genesis/Gameboy/N64/NES games on my shelf...the SNES are under the tv right now. These are my setups in the apartment (I have 3, two in the living room (me and girlfriend) and one in my bedroom).
[quote name='trailmix10']Wow Killer_xx that is an amazing ps2 collection!! Just build some shelves or buy one and it will look nice... no red labels either[/QUOTE]
[quote name='Swift900']@LakersForLife - OMG your 'Man Closet' is amazing! There must be years worth of entertainment stored in that library of video game storage.[/QUOTE]
didn't know there was a thread like this..you guys can peep this for now. I've gotta say that what you see here has practically doubled (except for DVDs) This was June 2008, a year before I stumbled onto here
I know this is nothing compared to some of the people here, but I'm working on it. None of my N64 games are shown, really need to find a way to display those...
[quote name='Scorch']it kills me to see some of you guys have a 360 that is standing up.. come on, you know better.[/QUOTE]
I know, they should throw it away and get something better. That's what you meant right? Lol. As a side note I don't know why anyone would be stupid enough to stand a console vertically. Discs were meant to spin flat and it's less stable.
I keep seeing these threads and I forgot which ones I posted my pics in.

Also... and this may just be a coincidence, but I had a launch console that NEVER had a problem, I also had it laying down horizontal. But I had moved it to a new position, rearranged the tv and whatnot, and the only way the ethernet wire would reach the console is if it was standing up vertically, a few days of that and I turn it on one morning and BAM, RROD.
Here's my setup plus some random promotional stuff for games. Only thing missing from the pictures is my GOW Collection on PS3. Brother has it right now.
Mmmm....Dusty Wiis, PS2's and Gamecubes. Xbox is in the closet.
This picture was really dark for some reason, but it's a Darksiders standee and alot of PS2, Xbox and Gamecube games on a rack.
Not sure if you can tell by this picture, but this poster is huge. I mean it's really large. (I know that's what she said)
More posters...Have some other Bleach (the anime) ones scattered throughout the room but this is a gaming forum so meh.
In the first picture you can already see my 360 games, but I noticed just now that MW2 is missing from that picture so I fixed it and here's a clearer picture of the 360 games.
Well i'm at my appartment right now during the school year (and I only bring GC/Wii/PS2/PS3/360/Xbox stuff with me to school) so I can't take pictures of my game room, but I'll show you what i've got with me! I'll take pictures of the game room (with this stuff included there) when I go home to Chicago at the end of the month.
Closet where i keep gaming stuff when im at school:
Only the PS3, Wii, and 360 are hooked up. Also, sorry about the glare, but that's a Viewtiful Joe poster
I've got some gaming poster up in my living room:
And I know it's not gaming, but I love these. In my kitchen, i've got two orignal TMNT animation cels up! I do own one more, but it's not framed.
[quote name='dv8mad']I like how it seems as if the edge of your photo pushed your God of War poster down.[/QUOTE]
Haha yeah. That poster is really high up in my room and it's starting to come down. I need to fix it. I just got that black bookcase last weekend. I need some tips on how to display some stuff...Have a DS Lite and a PSP and also a lot of old Gameboy Pockets, Advances and SP's I'll display. And an extra FF13 oversized box like that one up top.
@DrClaw411: Give me that Kingdom Hearts poster. Now.

Have to brag, but the GF found a garage sale with a Kingdom Hearts 2 standee. We took it home for $3 =P

Actually if you want one, I got it at FYE. I'm pretty sure they still carry the poster too, considering both the FYE stores near me have plenty in stock.

Most of my collection has been moved to storage bins for the time being since we have a baby on the way and my man cave has been converted into a baby room. At least I get to keep my Final Fight Arcade.

My fairly small collection. I rent most of my games so I don't have a huge collection. most of these games will be sold off later on when I don't play them anymore. The only thing I collect are books, comics, and movies...
As you can see, I rent most of my games. I work at BBV for those that care.
Small, but growing Blu Ray collection.
Books... they take up so much space =/ The brown stuff on the right side is gorilla glue. I had the shelf fall apart there and had to use the stuff to put it back together. Gorilla glue expands so god damn much.
My TV with all the essentials. Don't mind the hammer... I was installing some door stops.
And then my fairly cluttered desk with my XPS M1330 sitting on it. Just got full situated into this new house 2 weeks ago so my desk is still a mess.
Thought I would show my collection with all you guys. Currently I'm living with my parents (stupid college =P) so no awesome game room pics yet. So here goes.
First off my favorite system, the PS2:
Thanks to my PS3 I can play my PS2 even more (my PS2 had a bad car ride one day) Here's my PS3 games:
The top row of this pic are must owns for any PS3 owner! Especially Valkyria Chronicles.
And what started my collecting habit, the PS1:
Now to finish off the Sony family, the PSP:
Next system up is an the NES:
Strangely I have no urge to collect for the NES. Not sure why, I think it is just to daunting of a task. I sold a bunch of my NES games back in the day to get an XBOX and Halo. I'm regretting that now...
I'm ashamed as a self proclaimed collector. haha
Followed by one of the best consoles ever the SNES:
I think everyone that has a SNES has the top 3 games of this next pic, whether they wanted them or not. haha
Not pictured are the walkthrough for Earthbound and Mario Paint (forgot about it when I was taking the pic)
N64:
Boxed:
Loose:
Gamecube:
I think a lot of the games on this system are extremely underrated. Sadly Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker are in the shadow of their big brothers on the Wii even though they are better in many ways. Wind Waker > Twilight Princess
Wii:
For everyone curious about Okami, I recommend the PS2 version. Doesn't hurt as much and you can use the swords better.
And now for the Nintendo handhelds. First the Gameboy:
GBA:
Boxed:
Loose:
The success no one saw coming... the DS:
Now for Nintendo's rival (at least back in the day) Sega.
My only Master System game with my two 32X games:
Like with the NES I really have no desire right now to collect for the Master System. Or the 32X. I would like to get a Sega CD though someday.
Sega Genesis:
Boxed:
Like my cover art for Clay Fighters? Made that when I was a wee lad.
Loose:
I just got into the the Sega Saturn thanks to my girlfriend and her SHMUP binge:
The top game is Shining Wisdom fyi
We also just won NiGHTS, Magical Drop 3 (JP), and Puyo Puyo Sun (JP) from ebay.
Sega's soon follow up and final system, the Dreamcast:
The giant box, the XBOX ( I feel like a boxing announcer now):
I never got Halo 1 since I always just played at my friends' house.
As of now and the for-see-able future no XBOX360. Not that I hate the thing. I'm just not made of money and I would rather get some older games that are giant gaps in my collection. Mario 64 I'm looking at you. So I hope you liked looking through my collection so far. Credit should also go out to my girlfriend, a lot of these games are hers.
Here's an update to my handheld/Nintendo stand. Added some PSP games since the last picture I posted, also had a friend add another row onto the top of the original stand.

Sweet collection. Are those custom shelves? I really like the clean look of them. I've been looking into building my own because nothing store-bought seems to be just right. (Not tall enough, too much height between shelves, etc.)

Maybe? The depth on this version is too much for DS games though. There is another version of this shelf with a smaller depth where DS games fit almost perfectly. You'll have to buy extra shelves yourself which I think are $7 each (they are fully adjustable for height, so don't think what you see there is how it comes). Totally worth buying instead of building a shelf on your own.

If it's the same shelf I have (and looks like a bunch of people have it) It's the Atlantic Oskar. You can buy it at best buy.
There's a black one. Holds 1080 cds, 504 DVD's. It's 3 columns with 30 adjustable shelves. It's separated by one fixed shelf that splits it horizontally so you might have a little extra room there. If I had a bigger room, I would have a bunch of these. They do the job.

The one that RolePlayer posted is the one that I have, but basically I had my friend add an extra row to the top of the original stand as you can see in the picture, so its actually quite nice. And yeah, I went through quite a few stands before I finally got the Atlantic one, which was much better than I expected, so very satisfied with the find.
HOLY SHIT !!! @ Squarehard I am going to plan a party at your house , sorry for not getting your permission but I have already invited over 100 people for about 3 games a piece
Rules:
Bring own AC adapter
bring own chips/food/drinks
bring own sleeping bag
bring own DS
HAVE FUN !!
I posted earlier with my collection which is kind of strewn about my room. Just was looking at the Atlantic one people posted and came across this one. Anyone happen to use it before? Looks pretty good and it's really cheap for how much it holds.
