Do ya plan on putting a finish on the shelves or just leave them all natural?? I like them but I'm the kind guy who can never have too many shelves.

Curious, why do you have duplicates of some games?

I'm liking how minimal they are.  I might try some of these inside a closet.  That'd be a great place to put my Xbox games.

I like them. You would be surprised how many times people try to overengineer things like shelves when it's best to just follow K.I.S.S.

Looks quite nice minus those nasty GameStop stickers on the spines of some of the games.  ;)

Thanks.  Funny you mention that as I'm about to address that issue.  :)

I'm the same way I have the largest bottle of Goo Gone ya can buy and many other cleaning supplies to rid my collection of that grossness. The side effect is afterwards my hands smell like oranges even after I wash them.

Took an hour to build and another hour to sort alphabetically.  My lovely wife helped which was fun.  I suck at making things.  Ok so I'm concerned about weight. 77 games per shelf on average is a bunch of weight. BUT I like the results so far. Only need to add my PS4 and XBOX 360 and I'll be mostly done with this shelf leaving room for future purchases. I'll be displaying my Final Fantasy XII another way. Hard to believe how small my PS2 collection looks until you realize it's over 200 games up there. Haha.

Materials:
2qty 2x4's
10qty 1x2's (one split)
2" Drywall screws
2 deluxe wall anchors


Thoughts?  Go easy on me!!

These look amazing! :) I'm happy you came up with a means of storing your games extra tidy.

My stepfather recently built some shelves for games at my flat too.
