I don't make a lot of things especially these days. But sometimes I do and then I put those things here.

My Retro Gaming Setup 2023
มุมมอง 54K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Here is all the info I can muster about my super clean & automated retro gaming console setup. A lot of this info is very common for nerds who are already into this stuff, and probably way too advanced for your casual viewer... so I don't know who this is for :) I am not a "youtuber" and don't have a camera or good lights so made due, sorry for the shot quality.

Gut-Off Brumfield Promo
มุมมอง 3378 ปีที่แล้ว
A special "Things Mike Brumfield Looks Like" group promo. The Great Astoria Gut-Off is a summer long event wherein once a year, local beer bellied gentlemen and women wishing to lose weight have a lighthearted contest to see who can lose their flabby guts from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The Gut-Off has gone from a silly bar bet to a truly positive event that in some cases changes lives. Year 6 ...

Well, with all my respect, this is how its done🔥🔥🔥
WAW! 😲
Cinematic excellence
Just subscribed since you gave me the link to your TH-cam page.
Thanks man! I rarely upload anything on this page but I upload weekly to my other page Console Crapshoot. Mostly Tiktok but I upload them to TH-cam as well.
hello, i love your setup. I'd like to build my own. Would you mind if I emailed you a few questions?
sure. consolecrapshoot@gmail.com
Holy crap dude...I wanted to do this to make my life easier. Not one company has made a stand-alone audio video power multi input universal switching grid? It ain't rocket surgery. ...or is it? 😎
you can make an improvement to your power management. since you're probably only going to be able to play 1 system at a time. you can use a ps2 slim psu and get some splitters, center polarity reverse, and some guitar pedal barrel connector chains and just run the single barrel chains per each shelf and branch accordingly. i would put all your retro consoles with center neg polarity on a shelf (nes, snes, gen1, tg16, etc.) and center pos on another (ps1, ps2, gen2, gen3, etc.) split immediately from ps2 slim psu to a center pos line (no reverse polarity since ps2 slim psu is already center pos) and the other reverse to center neg. then you'll adapt accordingly from these primary branches to each console. typically need to skip plugs in order to provide enough spacing between consoles. inspiration comes from guitar pedal powering, daisy chains my friend.
1. can't self proclaim being a nerd. 2. not a nerd if not retro gaming on a crt.
oh man, i used to have a similar setup. I highly recommend getting a Mister FPGA to remove every console up to N64 and PS1. Plays just like the real consoles and removes a ton of cables. Great setup!
@@strongandnerdy MiSTer is great! Maybe one day
Lot's of work brother congrats looks great....
Great set up. Thank you for sharing. BUT, it is way too complicated. I am not a kid but my brain did short circuit watching this. lol!
This is epic! Great job brother.
A route that I went instead of CRT is a led projector. I have that screen mounted on the ceiling and I pull it down in front of my TV. I find that the projector feels like a middle ground between modern flat screens and old CRT's. One thing to watch out for though is that some cause a lot of input lag. The nexigo pj20 I bought has low lag and I've been happy with it.
"The neo geo is out of my price range" ...makes video showing how he spent $10,000 putting consoles on a shelf and connecting them to his tv 💀
$10,000 spent over 40 years.
All that equipment, just to end up on a TV like that, yikes. Just get a CRT, and put an HD TV like that above it. The image quality looks awful stretched for older consoles.
I don't play any games stretched. The ones you are seeing stretched is a background youtube video. Second, you've clearly never seen a proper setup with a RetroTINK 4K on an OLED. CRT's are great but these days with the right setup you can make it look and feel exactly the same.
@@salmakesthings Explain the monstrosity at 7:39... That looks like complete shit.
Again, that is a youtube video just playing on the tvs youtube app.
Yo Sal, awesome content, thanks. God bless. Jesus loves you!
Like the retro wall art
All that work to make a nice setup and you are playing your games stretched? Come on man…
@@arcadeages3917 no one is playing games stretched. I was playing a TH-cam video in the background.
What a nerd😂😊
Excellent need btw, keep nerding
Where did you get the component switcher??
It's called the GComp. You can get it many places. Stone Age Gamer for one.
I did all this around 2019 and it was very expensive. Finally sold all my retro gaming stuff and bought a new sports car and now emulate everything.
Enjoy ur input lag and neverending tinkering 😅
@@olevet75 there’s no input lag on a pc. And my 90k retro collection is portable as well
Gimme CRT or Gimme Death. What a bunch of wasted effort
He can easily add it up, through scart switches, did you watch a video?
REspect for you about the idea to no tinclud a PS5 Fat model in that beauty shelve!
i have a question for you that i think you might havea good answer for. do you leave all youre consoles plugged in to the wall or do you unplug them? I always unplug them becuase ive heard its bad for youre consoles overtime, but its a hassle everytime. How do you do this?
It is generally good to not have them plugged in. I feel it is best to have them all on a large surge protector and have the surge on a nice battery backup UPS. Then you can just flip the surge protectors off. However I kinda keep everything on most of the time unless I go away on vacation or something. I like everything to be one button automated. I've also soldered new capacitors into every system for this reason so they don't really take damage and I'll recap them again every 12-15 years or so.
@@salmakesthings exactly i think ill buy one of those surge protectors with a switch. and about soldering all new capacitors, im a guy who likes to keep all of his consoles all original and dont like opening them. but thanks for the advice!
Great video! I'm also a planner, but also obsessed upcycling. My beer crate console storage is probably going to get an upgrade at some stage
Awesome just found your channel inspired me to build one thanks like how you have the Atari paddles on there
Updated video?
Ha! No update but I do a weekly TikTok show called Console Crapshoot. It's also on TH-cam but I don't have any followers on that one.
any particular reason to have ps 1/ ps2 separately while your ps3 fully bc compatible? just for pure expirience I'd asume
Yeah. I like to play on original hardware whenever possible. Plus not everything is 100% compatible. Games, peripherals and general feel isn't the same.
@@salmakesthings your dedication to project is just mesmerizing how you were able to pull this off. Wii U has HDMI out and automatically take an edge over regular Wii not needing modify and to deal with peaky dongles and separate sound wires + 1 gaming gen more in same closure.
Really appreciate your focus on gaming and enjoying the experiences the different consoles provide, instead of hoarding. Err, sorry, collecting.
pathetic
@@Drewkhat Hoarding does tend to be.
I may have to move my wife to the porch so I can put this in my living room.
🤗
Oh wow that is a dream setup right there, i am so jealous!
Could have used more footage of the setup. Like, a lot more. Almost barely saw it.
I really should setup a controller rack one day, i got so many playstation/ps2 controller variants its a shame its all in totes
Do it! Pegboard is a good way to go but even a door hung shoe organizer isn't bad. Anything to get em out of boxes.
GeeZus
Absolute best console setup I've ever seen. Can you come to New Zealand and make me one lmao.
Thanks! Sure on my way.
WOW Fancy! thanks Bruh!
Damn, really amazing setup! But why 16:9?😂
The 16:9 shots are only when I was playing TH-cam clips in the background shooting in my dining room. Not my actual game play:)
would you stop white knighting about not "pirating" decade old games by greedy as corporations that want to keep re selling a small select amount of games while the whole back catalogue is inaccessible due to licensing or dated copyrights or the game cart is over 200 dollars on ebay.
The joke clearly went over your head. I put that in there as a legal protection, claiming I would never do something that I clearly do.
I believe everyone wants to know the answer to this question... How much do you have invested in this setup? And expanding to another question, total cost for your entire retro collection?
Ha I have no idea. This has been slowly building for 40 years. But according to GamEye I'd say roughly 40k-ish
Your setup is amazing dude! Thanks for sharing this with us! I kept your video on bookmark as I plan to do a setup like this in my future home!
Where did you find the 3d models of all the different systems??
Amazing game room and setup thank you for sharing. I enjoy seeing the unique collections and setups of other gamers I find it interesting and fun. The jab to the PS5 will always be a thing and I am convinced this will go down as one of the classic jabs in gaming like how people jab at the Nintendo Wii U name the Sony PlayStation 5 will get jabs due to It's design. I love the Sony PlayStation 5 and the memes / jabs that gamers have come up with. thanks for sharing. Cool video. ^_^
Very cool setup, Just wish it was hooked up to a CRT to showcase what it actually looked like back in 80's and 90's, nothing beats nostalgia
Typical bandwagon-jumping hack. Pirating games, playing games in the wrong aspect ratio, and a fan of led shelf lighting. Lol.
I don't play games in the wrong aspect ratio. I had a youtube video playing in the background for ambiance and that was in widescreen. Also I don't have any LED lighting. You seem like a typical snob douchebag who needs to constantly tell other people how they should be enjoying their hobby. You do your setup in whatever way makes you happy.
Dude, the Rastan intro was on point. Still one of my top 10 arcade games of all time.
I was wishing for a crt but… I understand the absence of it because of the wife approval.
Nah. Pass
It's a nice clean setup but it's missing a couple of primo CRTs. I know they're chunky and take up extra space but most of your systems were optimally designed to be played on them. Thanks for sharing.
I am holding out for one very specific CRT model for my setup. I search for it at least once a week but I can be patient till then :)
you could empty half your shelf with just using the mister fpga and get neo geo with other cores as well
Totally look alike @edwardretrodecouverte
Haha yeah I guess I see that too.
