My home theater was taken over by drums thanks to my little brother moving in. So for now the setup is squeezed into my office (along with all my other hobbies). And right now I am on a heavy PC gaming setup - so many titles so little time:
- Gaming PC - 2 15inch crt monitors - Q6600, 4 gigs of ram, 9600 gt (Im a Quake gamer so its lasted me two years and Ill get another two out of it).
- Old Home Theater Shuttle - 1 15inch crt - 1.8ghz Athalon, 2 gigs of ram, fx5700
- Nettop - 1 15inch crt - KVM with Shuttle - 1.6 ghz dual core atom, 2 gigs of ram, gma 950
- DOS computer (ok Win98se) - 533mhz celeron, 192megs of ram, 2mb Rage FX
- Imac G3 - blue - currently borked trying to figure it out. I think it is the 300mhz with 196 megs of ram. Ideally itll run ubuntu or os9 (osx runs like a dog on it for obvious reasons)
- 14 inch Amiga Monitor - Currently N64 and SNES

Im going to upgrade the monitors early next year, if I get a bigger desk I already have 3 22 inch crts in the wings...I play most games at the lowest setttings so I can get the best FPS - Like I said, Quake, but I am waiting on Windows 7 to flushout. Im thinking 19inch lcd and a 32inch lcd tv (I already have a 27 and 32 inch tv sitting in the corner but since the home theater and storage area are full of drums and camera equipment they are unloved.

Yukima, how is your PS2 modded?

Well, I'm the only dude with an Apple 2, N-gage, or NGPC so far, but I kinda feel ashamed I don't have a SNES or NES :oops:

I actually bought the PS2 pre-modded from a website in Canada, not sure what chip was installed (probably a Modbo 4.0 or something similar). It works pretty well, but it scratches every disc it plays, so I pretty much have to play only backups in it so my original discs won't get killed :shock:

And actually, I didn't have an NES until about 2 weeks ago when I found one in the local retro game shop. My SNES, however, I had since I was 12. :mrgreen:

I might actually have a full-fledged game room in the next few months, because we're currently remodeling the house and are converting the attic into another room - my brother and I are already planning to put a TV up there and move the Wii and some other consoles there.

BlackDS I thought this was about what we have out right now - my Apple ][+ is in storage. Once I get a bigger place/little brother moves out, itll be out on display.
