My dream games room/man cave would include all my consoles set up perfectly along with a custom built arcade (to play many arcade classics) plus a pinball machine. One day!

Another arcade machine added to the collection and shelving completed in the games room.
Not finished setting up yet, just had to rush to get everything unpacked. Still a few boxes to go. Looking forward to unpacking my F4F Crash Bandicoot statue also. Waiting for my glass display cabinet to arrive.

This is from Amart too!
I was actually going to buy a different 2 seater from Harvey Norman (2k). But this 2 seater came in a bundle with a 3 seater for $2.8k. I purchased this instead and used the 3 seater in my lounge room and took the two seater for my games room. Super comfy.
It's the "San Marco" range.

Great setup. Reckon you could talk the wife into getting a bigger TV to fill that empty void though

Told the wife I'm going to take the new 65" we bought for the lounge, and I'll replace the one in the lounge with a 75". Haha.

So this finally happened. I'm a happy man now. No more arcade machines. I've run out of room.
Gotta finish off painting the other half of my garage, and then I'll start tidying up my games room.

Always thought the Sega Rally arcade machine was more fun then Daytona back in the day. Would love one!

I've been tidying up my Zelda room and finally got a table to store all my Nintendo consoles, just need a NES and a Gameboy colour (my GBA is displayed on the other side of the room) and I'll be set.
This is the other side of my room, just need to get a comfy chair now

After 7 months I'm almost done.... until I want to change everything again.
Games room 95% complete. This is the games only.... There is a wardrobe full of figures and consoles. Then another large wardrobe shelf full of collectables.... I need another house!!

I've tried to manage to fit everything in and leave myself room for future purchases (Games, and statues I have on order. Luigi's Mansion figure, Conkers bad fur day statue and Banjo kazooie statue).
I will get a bigger TV for newer games, I haven't put my modern consoles in the room yet. They're still connected in the lounge room. I have my old CRT sitting in the spare room. I want to get rid of that, and purchase a small CRT and have it in the room ready for retro gaming.
Since setting up the room, my biggest regret is purchasing so many Collectors editions of games. Just useless junk that takes up too much space. Wii U CE games being the worse!!
-edit- in case I haven't mentioned it. I went through a phase and I sold off all my limited edition Dreamcast consoles, 3DS's and a couple of coloured N64's. While I was between houses it was just too much money sitting there for things that I'd never use. Especially the Dreamcast consoles. Some of them were irreplaceable and worth a few thousand each. No regrets at the moment....haha

Upright Display Cabinet MSC-27 - Metro Display
Glass Display Cabinet MSC-27 with storage and spot lights.

Expensive and a bitch to put together but the final outcome was worth it.
-edit-
The shelves are from Ikea. Billy range.
Yeah, they are at the moment. A Japanese cab in good condition goes for around 6-7k. They do fluctuate but I've only seen them increasing over the last few years.
