Red 5 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Just updated the collection photos. Please see end of thread for new photos. Thanks to everyone who has helped me with the collection! What an excellent excuse to update the photos of my basement! This is a fun new catagory here on the ole AA. Thanks Al! It will be fun to see everyone's collection in one place instead of mixed all over. And now, without further ado... my man cave...

Red 5 Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 What a superb view, buddy! That´s ruly an eye catcher! I swore I would never collect boxes, now I wish I did from the beginning. As long as the 'Sealed Boxes' bug doesn't kick it I should be fine. (like the bats?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 5 Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 The Stop Thief actually used to belong to JoeyBastard. I miss that bastard. Wonder if he found a new job yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emehr Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Nice! I like your movie theater set-up, curtains and all! And those are some sweet 2600 cart shelves. I really like how you have some of the labels facing out so you can see the artwork. Nice touch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 5 Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 Mmmmm*salivates over the Vectrex* I used to collect every old system NES, SMS, Odyssey,CDi, Genny and so on. I decided to stick to my true love (Atari) and I sold the rest and used the $ and space on the theater (and in-focus projector). However, I couldn't possibly part with the Vectrex. The only non-Atari system left. I wanted that thing so bad when I was a kid, but as my parents were not millionaires, so that was not an option for Christmas. I was lucky we got the 2600 when I was 8. I don't miss the old stuff at all because I can happily play all those games on my DC and Xbox a la emu.

Artlover Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 That's sweet. Love those cart shelves. That said: For the love of god, fix the Cabbage Patch cart and stand it up right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariRx Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Wow, I really need to swing by for a visit one day. Its been a couple years now, right? Your game room looks great. I'm going to start working on mine this summer, so I'll FINALLY mount the cart shelves on the wall and start pulling all my carts out for display.

I'm going to start working on mine this summer, so I'll FINALLY mount the cart shelves on the wall and start pulling all my carts out for display. It has definitely been too long. PM me when you hit the flea market again and we can meet up. (And of course you have an open invite to pop in whenever.) I still say you have one of the biggest collections that nobody knows about. You need to finish that basement and post some pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeybastard Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 That is a very impressive man cave except you're missing a key ingredient: Alcohol. Where's the beer fridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
