    My DC is atop a five-feet, wooden entertainment center. From left to right, there's a Saturn, N64, then the DC. Its games are furtherest to the left at the bottom, stacked, in no particular order. Above it are the Gamecube games, and above those are the Atari 2600 games. To the furthest right, starting from the top going down, I have the Saturn, then Xbox, and finally PS1 and PS2 games altogether in their own, little sections. In the middle's the 27" Sylvania TV, and below those from left to right, there's the PSTwo, the Gamecube, and the Xbox, behind glass cases. I kind of regret leaving those three other systems on top, though, because of the dust and such, but I'd rather play them than worry about them. And a towel covering them is ugly. Ah, and the N64 games are in a shoebox to the right of the afforementioned TV, while the SEGA-official keyboard is to the left of it. I am proud of my little gaming center.

    I have all the jewel cases stacked in a closet and all my cd's packed in huge cd wallets. Just too many cases to have lying around.

    I think we should post pictures of the collection and how it's stored now... I might go take a photo :3

    very interesting guys, very interesting. I'm suprised you'd use cd wallets there straycat, I always thought of you as a shoe-box kind of person.

    impressive set-up buzztron.

    Well I'd need about a bazillion shoe boxes. I use to have all my games in nice stacks to look at but it's not worth the headache. Once you hit the point of having over 500-600 + games having the boxes/cases out is just a headache. It's looks terrible and is hard to dig through.

    I keep my Sega consoles in a mini-entertainment center in my room. The Dreamcast games are in a shelf that's in a vertical position with clippers to hold the DC games up. I do the same with my Sega CD and Saturn games. The Genesis and 32X games are in two seperate shelves with the cartridges stacked up. My portables and portable games are in a seperate shelf in my room. My Xbox games are in a drawer, since I don't buy much Xbox games and I just got my Xbox replaced with a new one.

    lol. 600+ games!? I don't think I'll ever even play HALF as many as that. don't you have some rareities on display though? or aren't you into that side of the gaming scene?

    600+, holy maccaroni. and they're all good ones too?!?

    I've played most games, like 99%.
    And no, I'm not into displaying rare games. I like collecting games and playing them, not showing them off. And to be honest, I dont even know which ones are rare. The biggest laugh I had this year is going into a game store just to look for cheap games. I always look through bins to fill out my collection and try to find some half decent games for a buck or two. I looked under the glass and saw some games from the 90's that were selling for like 90-100 bucks each. I was pretty blown away games could sell for that much. Seeing as I had 3 or 4 of the games that were worth something.
    Plus, A ton of those games are totally nostalgic and probably wouldn't be considered "great games" by today's standards. But back in 1984 they were awesome.
    I've been through a few situations where the games market has fallen through making collections virtually worthless. I just keep games I like for the most part.
