So this is the part of the basement for games. I still need to replace the carpet with different flooring, tear down the drywall on the ceiling, take down the 3 ceiling fans, put up all new lighting, repaint walls & exposed ceiling and add a 1/2 bath…



Here the main area:

Shelving from box store, made and painted the shelves to match color. (2) 27” Sony, left is for all Nintendo stuff, right is for all others. Nintendo stuff is all hooked up via s-video. The others are RGB21 switcher to component. All systems can either out put sound though the tv or receiver. I have power strips on either side with individual switches for things:


Shelf above the TVs has my pcbs with custom labels. Will probably redo the multi’s and fill in the negative space with their list of games.
Top shelf has a few superguns, various sticks & projector.

Cabinet of stuff:

(Don’t read this if your eyes are working)
Sitting on top are my AES games, a couple mini cabs plus Bowser.

Inside:

Top shelf is Sega stuff: SMS, Genesis & MD. I should have moved the Nomad because it’s blocking a couple games.
Middle shelf has Saturn, DC & PC Engine stuff. It also starts the MVS with Metal Slugs, KoFs & Samurai Shodowns.
Bottom shelf has PGM and the rest of the MVS 2 deep…


Onto the cabs:

My Z-back. Usually run the CPS2 multi and NG multi here. You can see my rotary control panel the goes on my vertical cab. To the right is my projector screen I need to hang up on the back wall, probably after construction is done.

Cocktail:

I’ve had this for almost 20 years. It used to be a Capcom bowing according to the screen burn. At least it’s not noticeable when playing. I made a custom panel for it. This is my PGM shmup machine more or less.

Vertical & Centipede:

Vertical is use for shmups, rotary games (Heavy Barrel, Time Soldiers & Guerilla War). It currently has a JammaMiSTER in it. Centipede is, what it is.

“Modern” stuff

In the cabinet I have Switch, MiSTER, 360, PSTV. I also hook up the TTX2/3 with a supergun. Monitor can have 4 simultaneous inputs (roker mom joke…). The cabinet has a pullout drawer where I can put the SG or sticks and I have a couple matching stools…

I have a couple marquees I’d like to make light boxes for:


Not pictured is a bunch of other stuff in the “lab”. Maybe someday…

You call that a casting couch?

What's wrong with the ceiling? Why do you want it exposed?

What's wrong with the ceiling? Why do you want it exposed?

Currently there is only one light switch that controls the ceiling fans (only light source). I want to add a bunch of dimmable cans (12) and put them on different switches for certain areas. The floor joists run perpendicular to the walls and I’d have to punch/patch a ton of holes to run the electrical stuff.
Feel it would be easier to demo it. I am thinking about spraying the “ceiling” black, kind of an industrial look, some restaurants do it, painting over the cables and stuff. At least that is the idea/thinking.

Okay. I noticed the "man cave" I posted in the War Room had an exposed ceiling, and I guess this is becoming a thing.

Wow nice stuff & setup man coming along really nice! I recognize some of those Sega games 8)

Liking the power strips w/individual switches for each outlet. Remember where ya got em? In the process of sorting out part of the attic to setup my older consoles and those seem like the way to go

I removed a drop ceiling and installed drywall, but was able to install 6 can lights during the remodel. I have a book I should send you. I got a lot of great ideas during our basement remodel from it.

Or you can send a pic of the cover and I can find it?

Bet that lounge has copped a lot of stank farts.

 

[HellioN]

I used to have a space to setup my stuff.
Le sigh.
