Argyle, where did you get the frames for the posters? And how much does it cost?

Different places - the 3 PS2 posters are in frames I got from Wal-Mart.  I've had them a while, but I want to say I paid around $10/each for them.  The Nintendo Power posters I got from Michael's (an arts & crafts store, dunno if it's regional or not).  They were having a buy 1 get 1 sale so they averaged around $8-$10 each I think.  Some of the others I've had for a while so I don't remember where or how much I paid.  And the PA strip is in a frame that I frankly overpaid for, but I wanted it in a nicer frame so there ya go.   ;D

Oh I see, I'll have to go to Walmart and Michaels, they opened a  store a couple months ago near me.
Thanks for answering my question!

Since my first post, I've upgrade from "Gaming Shelves" to "Gaming Bookcase"! lol I got everything better organized now.  Top shelf is nothing but Zelda games.  Second shelf is basically all Nintendo related.  Third Shelf is Nintendo 64 since I can actually pull them out of the drawer now and Sega games.  Fourth Shelf is PS1/PS2/PS3 and Xbox 360 Games.  and bottom shelf is mostly just for whatever and the few cased copies of PC games I have.  I have a bunch of physical PC games over the years, but most of those are just in a big CD case.  I have some more gaming memorabilia stuff to put on the shelf that are elsewhere in the room right now, but I'm slowly building up.

Looking great :) I like how there's space at the front of the bookcase to put some toys and whatnot. I'll have to get me some bookshelves like this when I have enough space!

Meant to post this earlier, but here's my framed Club Nintendo LoZ poster I finally got hung in my den:

That poster is the exact reason I ordered the set myself. I gave the other two posters to my buddy whose teen daughter is a huge Zelda nut. I like the frame around it but I know the size of the poster and looking at it in that frame, there is no way I would have room for it. :)

Yeah, it's pretty big.  A friend had given me the frame a couple years ago for another purpose, but it was the wrong size so I had just been holding onto it.  Got the mat cut at my local Hobby Lobby and it looks fantastic (much better than that pic actually but the lighting sucks at my house, so it's either very yellow or washed-out with the flash...).

I think I have the same bookcase, but in black. I kept getting damaged ones when I first bought mine. It's an okay case, unfortunately only holds about 1/4 of my stuff! I wanna just build a whole wall shelf system at this point.

I love this setup especially the layout with the tv, the stands on the side and how you have looks like a dvd player on a separate platform from the top.  Very very nice setup in my opinion
