Video Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well, I got a store for movies, games, cards, whatever pretty much anything to do with entertainment, and at the moment, I have a table set up with various consoles on it to play with. I was just thinking, wwould it be cool to maybe build arcade style cabinets or something for them? Right now I only have a few systems set up, would you go with a full sized cabinet, or maybe a table top stule? Stick with something thin with flat screen TV's or a bigger one with crt? Would you just have a regular game controller on there, or make an arcade style controller? (I'd probably skip the latter for newer consoles) Anyhow, just curio9us what people thought. Is there some plans for one? Mostly it's just a hobby, but I'm also thinking of a way to keep all the systems sorted properly and not have just tangles of cords everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I personally think consoles belong in front of a couch or easy chair. I understand the need for tiddyness. Maybe a custom coffee table with storage kind of loungy and home like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 Cool, don't know if I could do a couch due to space, but yeah, that makes sense. Thanks for the input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkiker2089 Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Consoloes belong in front of a couch sure, because they belond in a home. You need cabinets of some sort. I'd like a cocktail cabinet style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 A short-lived video game store near my house had a couch and a Sega Saturn located in the front of the store. I do not recall what, if any, enclosure was used for the console, but it was always busy. Of course not all of the game players spent money in the store... Nextwave Games in Edmonton has one or two full-size arcade games in their Westwood store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) that's cool, I'm mostly wanting something set up so people can kind of playtest stuff before buying, but it's as much awareness as anything. [edit] and I expect having something set up for general people to come and play will attract more people anyways Edited September 12, 2014 by Video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
