So, most of you have seen the plans for my Basement, here is a refresher drawing:

Well, I have got quite a bit done, so here are some pictures of the work-in-progress. I also found a use for most of the $13.00 Sony PSOne monitors I picked up at local Kmarts..what do you think of it? It isn't dome yet of course, still need to hook it all up, and figure out how hte controllers will be stored.

More to come..the next big step will be the vertical blinds behind the Monitors. Then to figure out what to put on them..pictures, poster, mural, whatever.

It's really shaping up man. Very impressive collection and design.

That's a cool Saturn kiosk. I have never seen one before, is it official?

Pretty spiffy.

I know i asked this before but, what is the program you used to make that diagram? How much and where do i find it?

Search function isn't working that well for me (only lets me search for author).

The program I used is called Sketchup. It is an awesome program, but runs around $500.00 (actually quite cheap compared to other similar software).

DO a google for it, you will find the website.

Twitami, you can make alot of money off of your collection. Make your house a Pc/game center or whatever. Have people pay you to come to your house and play your games and all like those PC centers in Korea and Japan.

Hell, get a Karaoke Machine as well.

Now THAT, is friggin awesome. I know those screens look like shit (unless you got the official sony ones?) but that is just slick looking right there.

Nice. :D :D :D

Is it just me, or do some of your items, (i.e. the PS1 screens), look like prototypes?

Those are the official PSOne screens, and they look GREAT! And no, they are not prototypes or anything, they just still have the protective screen cover taped on them (the yellow tape).

Looks nice. But to me all those t.v's/screens seems kinda excessive, and doesn't look comfortable for extended gaming.

Personally I'd rather have fewer systems hooked up to better biggers t.v's with nice sound, and a comfy seating arrangment.

Ah, even better. I still have to agree with the others about the monitors and tv's ALL OVER the palce, but those PS2 LCD screens are very very nice setup.

That is why, if you look at the plans and the pictures, there is a section with two matching 21" JVC Monitors, which will have nice chairs in fornt of them. Most of the newer systems, and the ones that can really take advantage of better sound, will be connected there. I also have a small roll around cart which will be used to temporarily hook any system to the larger TVs. Plus, I have a huge 50" tv and surround system in the living room with game systems as well.
