My set up also has 5.1 Surround Sound with a 5-Disk DVD changer and 37" LCD TV. And two 13" TVs. I'm a little short on game systems - Just got the Nintendo systems and the Intellivision.

But now, that doesn't show my 21 Game Boys from every generation and two DSes... do those count for something? :smileywink:
Kudos!

Awesome dreamcast, Genisis, and Famicom

The problem is in the way LCD screens work... But one way to get around this is to point the gun at a bright light (such as a flourescent lamp) and pull the trigger.This will register a hit (because the gun thinks it hit the target, which appears as a white square on a black background for one frame) but takes the challenge out of playing.

Challenge? It doesn't just take away the challenge. It takes away the whole reason to play the game in the first place. It'll basically just make it a game where you push a button whenever you feel like progressing.

"most every video game console known to man."  That made me laugh. I could probably come up with another 50 that you don't have and have never heard of.
And maybe it's just the camera angle, but it looks like there is very little room between the N64/VCS and the bottom of the shelf, doesn't that make it a little tough to put games in?

OMG! Is that a... 2600?!?!? Does it still work? I have rolled over the score in Asteroids! It took me 6 hours non-stop.

That isn't a VCR, It's a Atari 2600. The video game console even before NES. Ahhh... Good times....

I didn't say VCR, I said VCS which stands for Video Computer System, which is another name for the Atari 2600.
