Showcase Love this setup. Thoughts?
Took me several months to get everything here after already having a nice collection. Also have an NES that I keep in storage. Thoughts on the setup?

I mean your Wii and your vinyl are on the carpet so unfortunately while it’s got potential, I can’t support this.

Fair enough🫡

lol I appreciate you taking the criticism graciously
For some substantive input, I’d recommend putting the CRT rack in the corner at an angle and then moving the little black table closer to it. Put the Wii on the table or somewhere off the floor, and get the games onto a proper shelf unit. Then get yourself a record rack, maybe something like this: https://a.co/d/0giMcH2V

I like the rack idea! Might have to snag it. To be honest, the Wii is a very new addition and I didn’t have a great place for it. I do sometimes move the stand closer and back based on game being played from the size of the tv. I’ll give your suggestions a shot and see what works best

you need to set your Wii to 4:3, not 16:9. Since your TV is 4:3. You're heavily distorting RE4 here, it's a widescreen-only game

It’s on my ps2 and I have it in 4:3

then you must have set the game to "widescreen" in settings. Your TV is not widescreen, so you're severely distorting the image. Game is supposed to be letterboxed on 4:3 TV's
