The perfect gamers case is created

303873242_e092413862_b.jpg

Take a good look at that picture. Let it all soak in. Mmm yeah, that’s good. This homemade rack (which you too can create with enough time) has a DVD player, a cable box, a PS3, an XBox 360, a Wii, an XBox, and a TiVo shelved down its center. It even has a custom LED computer cooling fan on each side of every device, resembling the blue lit Antec Nine Hundred Gamer PC Case. Talk about parking yourself in front of an optimal gaming rig, and we thought some other rigs were ultimate nooks ! Each device also has its very own stand with an open vented bottom so that it can radiate heat from all sides. Every controller has its own rack so as not to get tangled up into an impossible knot with the rest of the wiring. Though probably not its intended purpose, the subwoofer even functions as a Guitar Hero guitar stand for an all-encompassing gamer case. And they say gaming isn’t an addiction.

speaking of the gamecube controller, where’s the gamecube that the controller goes to?

Now he’s saving up for a T.V.

the gamecube controller is probably there for the Wii. If you have a wii, you don’t need a gamecube as it plays all the games and has the same controller ports.

pretty cool setup. needs to be black maybe.

That looks awesome

I think I see an old NES at the very top. Very nice set up.

12
by CharMarch 12, 2008   14:38pm

actually, that is a first-party gamecube controller…
i like your stand. you must be very popular with gamer girls.

perfect gamer’s case ? how come there are a bunch of shitty consoles and no pc ?

15
by Robot CartoonsMarch 12, 2008   15:04pm

I was wondering where the TV is, perhaps he has a projector? That’d be stellar. Having the controllers on the side is a great idea. Especially for the old ones that require wires.

by RandomMarch 12, 2008   15:26pm

The only thing he’s lacking, as “lololol” pointed out, to make it a REAL gamer’s case is, indeed, a PC. Unless it’s hiding somewhere off to the side (I do spy a keyboard), he’s missing out on the best games that the industry has to offer.

17
by EbonyMarch 12, 2008   15:35pm

@ really? — They’re actually LED lit fans to stop any of it overheating. Good idea imo.

by Jon OMarch 12, 2008   16:13pm

What are the dimensions on this, would love to build something for my consoles as well.

19
by bobMarch 12, 2008   17:53pm

agreed, this cheep shelf with holes cut for lights is amazing. how on earth did you make it?

20
by cheezewheelMarch 12, 2008   18:53pm

nice looking unit except the l.e.d.’s would be annoying if placed beside a tv, (distracting with the lights off beside a tv you’re trying to play on.
also who needs a pc now, seriously it’s just overkill if you have the money to waste on one sure but you can play most games on a console without the need to constantly swap for bigger and better parts costing about as much as a complete console, and still end up with choppy frame rates. only thing a true gamer needs a dreamcast, and a super nintendo as well, high five on the nes XD

Ditch the Wii to make it perfect.

by RomagMarch 12, 2008   20:58pm

Mac can run vista and pc games better than most off the shelf pcs… However with a cool setup like this, I’da like to see a custom build pc too if you’re a serious gamer. I too, however, separate my pc from my home theater. I prefer my 22″ monitor to my 40″ HDTV for pc gaming.

by :SMarch 13, 2008   13:00pm

so umm this guy had an ungly crappy shelving unit and he put all his gaming system on it, wow, that is AMAZING, and then cut out holes and installed some led lit fans :O im shitting myself thinking how incredible this is. the stupid things are the stand for each system with open bottom vent and the controller hooks. jesus this thing blows

24
by Dark HandMarch 13, 2008   19:26pm

hes up late his clocks read 3 41 and bedroom clock reads 3 42 so he must not have a life im loving that games case though its banging need an elite cos its like a thousand times better than everything there except the nez :P

25
by ErmMarch 13, 2008   21:13pm

Or it could be the middle of the afternoon. Or it could be that at 3:41 AM there’s not much to do outside of your own home many places anyway. Or it could be…

Do I really need to go on? How does his clock reading any time at all imply he must not have a life.

And depending on what his (or her) personal schedule is, 3:41 may be a totally normal time to be awake, maybe he works nights and this is his day off.

didnt you forget to mention your apple tv? and the other guy is right all you need is a pc and a wii so go suck my ****

Too big

31
by WrenMarch 22, 2008   0:58am

Actually, if you look to the left of the picture, you can see a Netgear router, indicating that indeed, at least one PC is nearby. And with all the cords you can see behind the router, I’m guessing that that big black thing you can see the edge of is either a monitor or a television. Perhaps he has his PC hooked up to his TV?

And what’s with all the haters? Is your setup any better? Yeah, it may not be the best thing in the world, but it’s pretty damn cool.

32
by RolladungafussApril 1, 2008   15:24pm

I agree with wren. And i also want to add the fact that those of u who are bashing the setup probly cant even afford all the stuff shown.

33
by LevApril 1, 2008   19:12pm

I don’t understand what all the hype is all about?

The only thing that is different is that he has put pc led cooling fans into the sides?

An easier way to do this is if you brought Car neons from http://www.halfords.co.uk

Or I have seen on the metacafe website a guy has adapted his computer speaker system to have flashing leds which dance with the music. The cover he used was a condom and the finished item looked spectacular!

But anyways well done for trying. Perhaps I should upload pictures of my system?

Anyway guys check out my website and let me know what you think. All comments are good comments even negative. =)

by AnthonyApril 5, 2008   11:49am

Wow, I respect the DIY factor, but with all those open fans, that thing has got to be the loud as damn. Still, pretty cool.

by xnukeApril 27, 2008   2:52am

Just stumbling through.

I noticed you have the dvd player stacked on your dvr up top. Just a work of caution; the hard drive in my dvr overheated and burned out being stacked the same way :(

One day the dude that built that cabinet will go outside and will meet a girl. Said girl may even get naked for him.

by ZackJune 29, 2008   9:25am

That’s gonna suck up alot of energy if those custom LED computer cooling fans cant be turned on individualy, he can only play one console at a time. Plus, I would have taken the pucture after having bought a HDTV.
