Quality thread, love the set ups!
Just purchased a home and land package with the fiance, won't be moved in till June next year roughly so ill have to contribute to the 2015 thread.
The good news is, it has been decided that the garage will be the designated man cave / entertainment area! pretty wrapt with that (its only a small house so it works well).
Have a 360, Wii, N64 at the moment but will be getting a PS4 at some stage too.
Needing to get a cabniet that will hold all of those plus foxtel.
Will also have a bar in the mancave, i have around 8-9 sporting frames to go up and 14-16 Signed sherrins in cases to display as well.
So i have a bit to work with, but its great seeing all of these ideas!

Um, dude, if I had know you wanted a Daytona arcade cabinet, my brother in law is trying to offload one. A Double set.
Let me know. Not sure if he's sold it yet.

Um, dude...let me know the condition & price. Seller has been having issues with the unit, so he is getting it repaired before selling.
Let me know.

I have 360s in the same way he has N64s. I currently have a 360E, Star Wars 360S, Reach 360S, Halo 4 360S and Halo 3 360 Fat. But I also at one point owned an original 360, Modern Warfare 2 360 and Resident Evil 5 360.
Trevelyan do you have the Pokemon Nintendo 64? That's the one I've got.

Shpeshal Ed, I don't have one of those yet. I've missed a few opportunities but they come up every now and again boxed so I'll grab one eventually.
Just checked out your load-out on page 2 of this thread. Very impressive!
I've updated my post with details of my units and what's hooked up, with a few closer pics.

If I ever decide to sell some of my older consoles (been considering it lately, already sold Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie and Tooie), I'll give you first dibs.
That makes him MLG yeah?
How do you like your sound bar? I'm thinking about heading that way, not sure surround is going to work with our current lounge layout.

Love it. Bought a Samsung and the sound is really good for what it is. I paid $450 but Samsung were having a sale on their website not too long ago and you could pick them up for $350.

What's the go with a lot of these set Ups? Do they have their own dedicated room, exist in another room, or some kind of separate man cave/refurbished shed? What's everyones thoughts on the ideal situation?

I have my own room. Some do it as part of living rooms though. Will obviously depend on the house. I'm lucky I made an adjustment to my room to make it half a study to free up a room for a potential second drainer...I mean kid.

Not done with my, but happy with it so far.
Things to note: It blocks my cupboard off that has all my limited edition stuff, boxes and other crap in there. It's only on this side for a week or two until I move some stuff out of this area so the desk can go on the other side of the room and the cupboard become a showcase for all the gaming shit I have. I also got the desk for 100 bucks which I thought was a good deal. Xbox 1 & 360 on that end <
Sorry for shitty picture.

Sorry for shitty picture.
and for those wondering my PC specs (my first PC I built with much help from Gold Member):
NZXT H440 RED
i5 4690
8 GB RAM @ 1600
120 GB 840 EVO SSD
1 TB WD Blue
Radeon XFX R9 280X
AsTock H87 Performance motherboard
RED LED lighting (not visable in computer)
and a bunch of corsair RED AS 120's
Monitors are BenQ XL2420Z in the middle, some shitty LG on the left and my iMac 21.5
Getting a new keyboard and mouse soon along with either another XL24020Z or a couple of cheaper ASUS monitors (heard they do the job well) - BenQ monitor I usually just play Xbox One.
and the cord sticking out the top of my PC is for my snowball mic, which I don't use much as I have Astro A40's plugged into both console and PC. I need to invest in another TOSlink cable because it's a pain switching when I play 360 when I've just done playing XB1 lol
Under the desk is a box with doors that goes along the back that I built. I'll try get a better photo of it hiding the cables but my phones camera is shit
