Here is where I am at. Live in an apartment so space is tight and needed everything to be able to move into the closet. I’ve got SNES, N64, Wii mini, Sega Genesis, PS2, a vcr, receiver and stereo speakers, Extron switcher, and playing them all on a Sony PVM14L5. The rack is from Amazon and most are hooked up via RGB.
This setup is nice. It’s also interesting that I’ve never heard of Wii mini but I was a PlayStation kid :)
It flew under my radar for a long time as well. I got it for a steal.
Nice! It reminds me of teachers bringing in the TV for a class and having the usual fight with channels and inputs for the next 3-5 minutes.
Do you wheel it back to its parking spot when unused?
Ha yes I do wheel it back away. When I bring it out for my kids I tell them this is what it was like back in my day!
nice, i have one of those carts too and put some hanging canvas organizers on the back to put controllers and stuff in. however, i wouldn’t be able to see a thing happening on that monitor without being a couple feet away (like at a desk)- how close do you sit to it??
I usually do a few different things. Including sitting on the floor with the kids and the tv about 3 or 4 feet away or pull it up next to the couch and play. Eventually I’ll get a bigger one as well but for now it suits my needs and those 800 scan lines look gorgeous lol.
Also here is the back side. Still a mess but better than it was in the beginning ha.
I wonder how much time you invested to build this setup
Not as bad as you would think actually. I collected all the gaming hardware over time. Cables and tv and such. Last piece was the shelving. Took about a day to get everything set up and another day of tweaking and cable management.
Interesting. Just by looking at the picture I thought it was much more than just two days. Thanks for sharing!
Very nice! I’m seeing a SNES, N64, VCR, Genesis?, and a vertically stood PS2? Am I missing anything?
Also the wii mini!
Nice rack 😏
Getting real “wheeling in the cart for movie day in school” memories, except those were a lot less cool than this is.
I tried to make it as cool and nerdy as possible ha
Good stuff!
Thank you!
SICK Extron switch!! I used to install those in media centers and theaters!
Thanks! I got it for a steal and it’s totally overkill but hoping to expand someday!
That is so dang cool, how do you get games if you’re looking for a specific one?
Lol for me, the key is not have specific games in mind as they’ve gotten so expensive. So I hit up used and retro shops and just see what piques my interest.
Oh man that is awesome!
I think this needs an NSFW tag.
😆 appreciate it. It is sexy!
I wonder what happens when this rig goes 88 mph.
Legit
If the cart doesn’t have a name already, go with Mario or Crash Team. Nice setup.
I like Crash Team
