Im almost done! It will only include my PS2, XBOX, Cube, PSX, DC, and my guides. I didnt have enough room for my SNES or NES... I put them in a drawer in my endtable next to the shelf. When I post pictures, please leave some reviews... ;)

Nice!
I just got new storage as well but with lots of empty spaces as I need more games. I'll post pics of mine when I fill some gaps.
That looks really nice though but double layering can be a bit of a pain when your trying to search for a certain game.

Ah-ha.. I thought of that... Thats why the back layer of games is being held up by Genesis Boxes! :)

Very nicely set up, I hope some day I'll have enough space to put together something nice like that...

AHA - now that I like!
I may have to steal that idea some day. :)
Very nice collection, I like the neat set up.

That's some PSX collection you got there! So are the games in the front in front of another row of PSX games in the back?

I think he's answered that already:

Very nice man!
I've been looking how everyone stores there strategy guides, any problems by putting them up like that?
I've just been paranoid :) I just leave them in stacks. But I may try that approach and save some precious room.
How many shelves did it come with? It looks like you could pack more in if you had any extra shelves.
None the less, looking good :)

I like the idea of a two-tier CD-ROM shelf, but I don't really like the waste of space. I've got a shelf (from Wal-Mart, heh) for VHS tapes that works great for holding a small number of games (Mega Drive and SFC fit in very well), with the shelving adjustable enough that you can use the top two shelves for CD-ROMs and they'll fit quite perfectly.
Downside...it's low-quality (unlike the nice looking one you've got there, Husker) and small. It'll hold all the CD-ROM games that I'll likely buy in the near future for Mega CD, PC-E CD, import PlayStation and Saturn, and a few GBA boxes too...but it's small enough that the SFC and Mega Drive collection has outgrown it by far, and I've even got too many Neo-Geo import titles now.
The perfect gaming shelf: tall, lots of shelves for tight rows, not very deep (maybe an inch or two in front of the game if you push it back), and definitely not top heavy...quite a tall order.

That's a nice collection.
Very nice collection. I especially like how almost all of it's all organized on the one shelf.

VAC, there were no problems with the guides. It was just a pain in the ass finding all of them then organizing them in alphabetical order. The shelf only came with 4 shelves. If there were a few more I'd want to put my NES, SNES, GEN carts on there as well, but oh well..
Thanks for the comments. I think my collection is finally organized, but one bad thing.. when I get more PS2 games, I wont have any room so I think ill have to stack them on the top.

I know how that is. I filled up a bookcase nicely awhile back, but since I've gotten more things since then, I have things stacked awkwardly all over it because there's no room left. :P
Anyway, looks great. :) That's a heck of a lot of guides you got there. o_O

I have the Suikoden Guide in a plastic bag sitting above the guides ;)
