Finally I have purged all the cockroaches and dust long enough for you all to peruse my Rooma Dooma!

Amazing how the MAME cab seems to fit perfectly in that corner! Build the house around it, did we? :)

Nice! Love the rocket launcher, the arcade cabs, the way you've got all the hardware on display, and of course the wall of cans. Dr. Pepper truly is the king of colas. :-P

Umm...does Dr.Pepper really qualify as a cola?!

I dunno.....Some people from different areas refer to every carbonated drink as Cola..I never understood it myself...

Great collection by the way!

Great collection and set up you have there.

I noticed some Star Wars toys too, very nice. :)

Nice room, although you had a pretty major typo in there. In the part where you're talking about your old Commodore stuff you had accidentally typed "crap". Surely this is a mistake. ;)

So does your RoD stay that clean, or did you have to do a lot of cleaning to take those pics? When I look back on my gallery pics I always think "wow, was it ever that clean?"

I like the broken cabs that you're going to restore. You probably rescued those from somewhere, and it makes me feel good to know that they'll shine again someday.

Not exactly. Actually, it was all these built-in shelves that compelled me to buy the house in the first place. As for the MAME nook I'm guessing there was a fridge in this room once. I was going to put another one there for beer but then I got the idea to build the MAME Frame instead...the beer fridge is in the laundry room 8-) .

"Crap" changed to "stuff" in deference to the Flackster.

As for cleanliness. What you're looking at is the result of four days of butt-busting work cleaning and organizing after months of saying, "I'm gonna post Room Of Doom pics." Prior to this the room looked more like the garage pics :shameful:. The room is between the laundry and the garage. The dog somes in and out through here and, this being New Mexico, dust is persistent. No, these pictures represent a peak; how long I can maintain it is the question.
