I have them all fed into an RCA switcher and then up scales to HDMI.

Thanks for all the comments peeps

Really appreciate it

Very nice games room! Tempted to drop $200 on the Analogue Mega SG to have a MD hooked up all the time. If Analogue do an N64 or Dreamcast I may lose my mind

I doubt you would be the only one!

Excellent work right there.

I now have a room that is going to be a dedicated boys room, my former office which I have now moved into my summer house. I have some drawings incoming (again) for a bespoke build that will house 30 spaces for retro kit, some which will be home computers. Will post them up when they arrive. I dumped a Sony TV (same one you have on the left) and plan to get a CCTY monitor and use LCD 1080p with upscaling.

Sounds great, you really need space to enjoy collections properly

I meant to ask, where did you get the storage units from? The OG Xbox seems to fit perfectly in there and I'm looking for something similar myself!

EDIT: It looks like the ones I've seen in B&Q - not sure if that's right?

To me they look like the IKEA Kallax units but I could be wrong

You are not wrong. I checked dimensions vs the Phat PS3... spot on. Good call... I was on the IKEA site on that very page thinking I wanted to know if that was the ones too...

Late to the party but that's an awesome setup! I would personally add more colour, maybe on the walls or curtains or maybe certain lighting other than white to set a more retro mood (thinking of this reference for the suggestion, first one) but then again that's down to personal taste. Like how organized it is though.
