Custom made.
Tonight I will start to put some games on those shelves and next week I will post a lot more pictures when it is finally finished, including pictures of before.

My favorite thing about you set up is 10 Things I Hate About YouWell, we finally updated a lot of our setup, new furniture AND technology...
Main setup:
Wow, that's a nice job. Reminds me that I need to do a complete overhaul of my entire cable management soon. I fear the amount of dust that must have accumulated over time in that part of the room.I've recently moved so setting things up again is the perfect opportunity for me to tackle better cable management. It's a battle I somehow lose in the end, but one of these days I'll figure it out.
I don't want this again, which started out clean, labeled, tied up, but over time just got out of hand as I changed stuff around, added new things, removed old things, etc.
So this is the result of three days work (one for research, one for planning, one for what you see here). This is all the power cables plugged in, tied up, and power bricks hidden. So this is the current state of my gaming setup and I think I'm off to a good start.
Today I have all new Ethernet cables and HDMI cables coming. They are of varying lengths to minimize excess cables which will hopefully help reduce the chaos. I'll post a pic with hopefully good results.
This is a setup that contains 5 game consoles, one HTPC, one Fire TV, one Blu Ray player, 1 receiver, 1 Chromecast, and 5.1 speakers. So it's pretty cable intensive. I'm all ears for anyone who has good advice on how to wire things in a clean fashion.

The way it looks on your picture is superb, but where do you have the non-power cables running? I don't see them in the second pic.
Seems kind of redundant a lot of those things? That may have been the thing that caused your original issue in the first place.
But good job organizing all of your cables. How are you handling your speaker wires as that's always the hardest to hide without running through walls or between baseboard.
Overall, a huge step up over what I had before while retaining almost all the functionality. A few things aren't there yet. I'll post another update once I make more progress.
How will you be reaching the top shelves on a day-to-day basis? Or is the shelf merely for showing off your collection?
That would have been perfect for a rolling library ladder.
This may not impress as much as Galdius' Shelves of Insanity (looking amazing man, can't wait to see it fully furnished), but here's a quick shot of my own custom-built (thanks dad!) retro set-up. The hard part is gonna be connecting it all (this shot is just for showing off). And I just put some games and stuffs around to dress it up a bit, but this is far from the end-result. I'm gonna be hooking up all the consoles in the next few weeks if I can find the time. Hope you guys like it. When my game room is fully done (it's getting there) I'll post a lot more pictures, but I thought I'd show this off as I think it came out really nicely.
@Galdius: Awesome shelf. One question, did you have a plan of what goes where before building it? Judging by the place holding the 360, I guess you at lease had some sort of a partial plan.
@eXistor: Awesome shelf too. There are 21 consoles, are you sure you want to hook everything up, you need a lot of receivers. And where are the controllers?

I would move all the systems with the wired controllers to the bottom and leave the top only for 'wireless' systems.
You will have to rearrange a few to handle the power adapters also. Some of the top loading stuff (esp if you want the 32x hooked up) will be a little wonky on box shelving systems.
House is getting the floors done, I actually like this setup.
These two tv stands look similar, where'd you get them?
Building a new place starting next month, preliminary stuff is done.
Most importantly, the living room. I'm making a few custom panels for connections. I currently have a panel planned for behind my entertainment setup (PC, consoles, wall mounted 55" TV). This has HDMI, USB, LAN and routes to the TV (sockets behind the TV, no visible cables), and USB 3.0 and HDMI through the walls to a panel in another room where I have a desk and monitor for non-couch PC work.
I have one panel left, to go next to the sofa in the living room. What should I have on it? USB? GameCube ports? Any other ideas?
Looks great, Marty. I'm really jealous of your cable management skills!
If it's not too late, I hear one of the things to best futureproof yourself is to have at least 4 cat6 ports running there. In the future, you could use it for video distribution through HDBaseT which will run over your cat6 wiring. I added four ethernet ports to any spot I thought I might want to use for distribution in the future.
Thanks! It's taken a lot of failure to get this far. Hopefully I can figure out how to make things cleaner behind the receiver.

Haha, looks cozy. You need to get some bindings on that board.
Living in a small studio in Seattle. I had to pack everything in extra tight so it didn't take over the entire room.
It's my powder board. I have my baby rossignol and it's hands down the best board I ever rode. Beats lib, burton, and my arbor. Go figure right? A ski company made my favorite snowboard.

Looks neat!
Dont you have issues with you PS4 overheating?
If I put it in a closed closet (more spacious than that one) it seems it is getting ready to take off and gets WAY warmer then when I give it some air.
Never ridden a Rossi only Lib/GNU, might have to try one out. If you are looking for bindings I stumbled upon a new company called GCW bindings. They make some sick custom colors and are manufactured in the US.
What TV is that?
No, I put some small screw mounted fans on the back of the cabinet for the consoles from the home depot.
Custom made.

Any links to these? How's the fan noise?

that's really sexy and nice but I would replace the PS3's with old game boys or something. They are HD console and you wouldn't really want to play them on an old crt, unless they are just their for show. Or is this your main setup?
Here is a picture of how it looks today. Yesterday I started to put some games on the shelves. I don't know if this will be how it will look like in the end as I may change some games to another shelf so that I can fit almost everything without having to do a second line of games.
This is just a thing of beauty. Did you build it yourself?
Edit: Can we get shots of the whole room? I want to see how that thing fits in with it.
I hired a person to build it.
Next week (monday or tuesday) I will post pictures of whole room. There is another shelf on the other side of the room.
