I keep one system hooked up at a time, because i dislike untangling wire messes.

I keep them all hooked up for the same reason.

I have halfway decent pics of the wires here, from when I posted the pics of my gaming setup. It gets the point across that I'm not actually trying to organize them at all.

Hehe it's okay because I ended up just buying those plastic tubes to organize things plus a lot of zip ties. I am still enjoying everyone's perspective though.

Nice setup, by the way, I have one of those tall skinny ikea dvd holders also. I want to get a couple more like you have as they are so easy to stand side by side without taking up space. And nice clean wires I see.

Trust me. I had to learn to keep my wires organized the hard way. It used to take me, like, 10-20 minutes to get them all untangled. Now I try my best to keep them from tangling, especially my controller cables. I do this because I'm the type that likes to re-arrange my room once in a while.

I gave up trying to bundle and tie wires a long time ago. I even went as far as to buy a bunch of wire tubes from IKEA. But it never worked... there was always a loose wire or one that was too short to fit with the rest. Now I just try to make sure the power and video cables are separate (on different sides of the TV).

Still waiting for those pics. :roll: :lol: :roll:

I just purchased those Gamestop Universal Switches and want to pick up one more plus and RCA one too.

I've tried everything and like people say it just doesn't last. Those Ikea tubes, same problem always one wire is shorter then the other. Tie up slack ... well if I move a system all I have is a bunch of twisted rings all togther in one. I sware these wires, during the night, conspire on how to drive me crazy and some how come to life and tangle up together.
