file cabnet

lower level

this is the secret of storing power adaptors. I am still using the same 6pack sleeve today

and the closet. even when this was taken there was quite a few more games that were boxed away. Theres quite a bit more that has been aquired since.

and where the magic happens... ironically I am still using the same tv. it was pretty crummy then. sigh, if only I had an extra 4 grand for something new.

I do like the power cable storage.

About how many nes carts do you estimate?

What he said. I still play PS1 and older on a crt in the bedroom because 1.they look like shit on a hd tv 2. the old consoles are obviuosly designed for a 4:3 tv not 16:9.

Also....if your buying a new HDTV for 4 grand...it better be like....100"....my family got ours...64" for 1500.

Plasma, LCD, flat panel or deep, brand name, retailer...? Lots of things that account for price beyond the inches.

rear-projection mitsubishi
brand doesn't matter to me....in years of having different TV's it doesnt seem to make much of a difference.

well I just threw in a random figure. thats about how much I'll budget when I do the next round of a/v upgrades [I am no longer a college student, I can afford nice things]. I should've done the TV before the stereo, but I've never owned anything nicer than a boombox my whole life and I went a bit overboard with it [decent onkyo reciever, biggest of the big polk speakers all around, oppo dvd player, sangean hd receiver, 2 big boy terk antennas, nikko rack mount preamp and eq, all on fancy cabling, and a decent voltage regulator].

eitherway I'm in the middle of remodling my house so the next round of toys is still 6 months away

currently its sitting like this

ubelaffe, no idea how many nes carts I have. I'm currently missing a few boxes of carts. But I should have around 200 on hand. Its far from everything but its just about every single game that matters.
