Survey: What do you look to add to your game room?

Post by Deschain »

What do you guys and gals like to add to your game rooms, aside from games. Do you look for prints, lithos, plushies, action figures? Other 90's memorabilia? I'm always curious to see what people deck their halls with.

Any specific kind of framed posters you like? Are they licensed, or are they anything that strike your fancy?

I would say posters from some of my favorite movies and favorite games as well.

I'm a huge fan of the poster inserts that came with some of the Sega Genesis games :D

Framed Vargas pin ups, art deco furniture, other photos of vaudeville performers, and sports memorabilia.

^, and of course, more games.

My game room is my den, so my wife and I decided that anything I do has to be family friendly and understandable by nongamers/former gamers. So we zoned the room and put things up that matched the zones. So around our TV is all TV and Movie related things. Like My 1965 CBS line up Studio posters - Man from Uncle, Get Smart, and I Spy, which are divided up by lobby cards I picked up from a TCM event years ago for classic films - Casablanca, King Kong, Wizard of Oz, A Night at the Opera, He Who Gets Slapped, another I cannot remember. Around the wetbar, is hunting related with Ducks and Fox hunters. Around the gaming area is Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis Movie poster and a Gradius fan art a good friend of mine drew. Actually there is a random Groucho print there aswell, but that is because I had to move him from behind the bar.

I really want to get some cool artsy posters like 8bit has in his room. I really like the ones he has, but some cool third-party posters that add some flair to the rest of the room.

Action figures and posters, mostly. I've grown a liking to those "pop figures" so I'm hoping to collect a few Fallout ones. :lol:

Mostly, figures or something like that. Just cool things, maybe to make a scene or something like that. Currently, amiibo is basically filling that entire void for me. (I may have a problem, there. People can feel free to chant, "One of Us")

I'd say posters, but I honestly have more than can actually be hung up in two rooms, let alone one.

I'm always on the look out for old game mags. I've come to the conclusion that I'd probably like to have a complete Nintendo Power collection, and maybe all the Sega only mags too (since there aren't that many).

Of course more games, though the room was necessitated because of the games I had, rather than the other way around.

If I had more space, arcade cabs. Even just marquee's to games I didn't necessarily want hanging around, but still enjoyed.
