For some reason, I forgot to post this here. I moved my gaming room to another part of the house simply because my stuff was outgrowing the space I had. Lately, I’ve had an unhealthy obsession with collecting GI Joe 3 ¾” figures so I have the in the room as well. Some of my gaming stull like my Atari stuff, PC Engine and TG-16 collection had to be put in storage to make way for the Joes.

+1 for GI Joe toys, those bring back memories. Nice room, I like the organization and cleaness of it.
As an Indiana Hoosier I feel it is my duty to ask you where your 2007 super bowl champions Chicago Bears hat is...

That's a pretty gnarly game room you got there. I really like the framed NES posters on the wall. Nice.

Nice game room, i wish i had an extra room to do that too. It sucks living in a one bedroom apartment, most of my collection is in the closet.

If I could get my room this neat, I think my better half would be a lot more forgiving. Nice.

Nice room.
However your Joe collection is missing a little something called the U.S.S Flagg.

True…but my wallet is missing something called $600…That damn thing is extremely expensive!

Hey, I've been there!
Looking good. What the hell is that thing near the TV though?

Lately, I’ve had an unhealthy obsession with collecting GI Joe 3 ¾” figures so I have the in the room as well.
In 1996 I threw all of my GI Joe stuff away. This was every single 3 3/4 figure from the 1st generation to about 4 years later (1983-1987). I had almost every single figure, weapon (no USS Flagg...sorry) and accessory in a box and I just threw it in the garbage. I also had a few (10 or so) Transformers in the box too...although I don't remember exactly which ones.
My rationale at the time was to clear out clutter before moving. Sometimes I wonder what I could've sold them for on Ebay. Oh well, at least I kept my Star Wars figures (the true toys of Gen-X).

love the neo geo stuff. I wish I could find stuff for that to make my collection look that good. Luckily a room is now open to make a room of doom (minus the MVS machine). But its gonna have both mine and my brother's collections in there (minus the next gen stuff.)

Are you using These (http://www.mediashelving.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=W&Product_Code=USCG&Category_Code=VHS) with your loose SNES carts? I've been thinking about getting some myself. Do you like them? Can they fit a manual? Great room, btw.

$40-45 dollars for THAT?!? No thanks, I'll take my chances and leave my carts to the *gasp* open air space.

That's $42.00 per 100 cases. RIF.

Oh. Damn, now I feel like a jackass. Still, I'd rather pay a buck for twelve cases (that's still about 1/4 less for 100 cases) than a bulk of 100 cases for close to fifty bucks that I'll never use. But then, that's not the topic at hand here.

I’m using those for my SNES, Genesis and random Atari carts…they work great and the manuals fit perfectly. One bad thing is that they DO NOT fit NES games. The NES boxes I got off of eBay some time ago, I’ve yet to see them since anywhere. The seller from eBay got them from an old video store that had them in the back sitting brand new in a sealed box…they are well over 10 years old. I’d love to find more but although I’ve looked, I’ve yet to come across any.
