Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
Re: Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
i have my 11x15 dorm room. i wish i had more room, but everything is hooked up to my tv, sans my genesis because i dont have enough room! when i have a house or apt or anywhere i can have a man-cave, i plan on having a main gaming platform for the general living room and then everything else in my cave!

Living room has recent gen (360,ps2,gcn) hooked up to my LCD tv. Spare bedroom has my old crt tv with all my older stuff (nes,snes,n64,gcn,ps1,xbox-modded,md2,dc). So that way I can play any of em at whim. Also I have a media centre pc hooked to my lcd tv in the living room that can double for gameing and emu work.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

In store my entire game collection in my bedroom. I have an small LCD TV in my room along with my computer, and a CRT on the other side of the house if I ever want to play anything last-gen.
Re: Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
The main area of my apartment has my HDTV which has a ton of stuff hooked up to it. It's got my SNES, N64, PSX, PS2 hooked up to one switch box on S-Video, a Saturn on the other S-Video input, an Xbox and a Wii on component, my computer on the DVI input, the PS3 on the other HDMI input, and the Dreamcast and 360 on the VGA input behind a switch box.
Then in my bedroom I have my NES, Master System, Genesis, and Turbografx on a switch box for composite and the 3DO on the component input on my old CRT from college. When I first moved in I had everything just on the nice HDTV, but then when I discovered how badly it upscaled my Genesis (it was creating some kind of scanline) I moved the Genny to the bedroom. Then I've slowly moved more systems in there as I've run out of room in the main room.
In a few years when I get a house I'll probably have a similar setup. It's hard to run so many systems through a single TV, not to mention the difficulty of shelving it all.

Re: Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
well we have the living room set up w/ most of my games but got the CRT and computer in my room. I really wish we had the CRT in the living room though, 4:3 is the best.

Re: Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
Still, it's no fun to have to hide in the basement every time I play a game. So I have a Sega CD, N64, and Atari 2600 upstairs. They're good for visitors, or to just pick up a few minutes of gaming here and there.
Eventually I'm going to clean up that area behind the couch. I'll put some shelving in there, get some small TVs and hook up my REAL old systems. I have most models of Atari 2600. A 5200 and 7800, an Intellivision II, a Vectrex and a Fairchild Channel F. Still keeping my eye out for an Odyssey 2 or a Colecovision. Or an Atari 800, or a C128...

Well i'm homeless so yes, all of my stuff is divided between girlfriend, parents and brothers houses. I did use to just keep all my consoles near one tv, with only one plugged in at any time and all the wires for the others just in a drawer.

Re: Do You Have More Than One Gaming Room?
I have the majority of my systems in my studio room, but in our loft I have the 360, PS3 and Dreamcast.
In the master bedroom is a Genesis with a power converter for Master System Games.
In the family room is the Wii.
