In the interest of science, I will be documenting the deconstruction, transportation, and set up of my new game room (aka the Temple of Doom) as my wife, daughter and I move from being renters to home owners.
Where to start? Well how about packing. Now, I may not have the Bubble Bobble 2s, Chase the Chuckwagons and Cauldron 6 in 1s that some other collectors have, but I have been very selective in my collecting and my large collection is more impressive and valuable as a whole, rather than when it’s viewed in parts. There are of course, exceptions (like my mint CIB Snatcher, Suikoden 2 and Dragon Warrior 4).
What this means is rather than put all of my high value games into one or five boxes, I kind of have to think about packing and transporting my collection as if it were one singular living entity.
Not only is the title of this entry a nod to one of my favorite bands of all time, it is also descriptive of my attitude towards packing my game room. I want to get it packed and ready to go sooner rather than later because I have about 8 more rooms that have to be spotlessly cleaned and packed and I don’t want to have to rush packing my life’s work.
So I have already started packing up my collection. I bring home about 5 or 6 boxes everyday from work (it’s times like this I love working in a print shop, where the boxes are plentiful) and I have them filled before I even get on a roll.
Below are three pictures of my temple of doom as it looked about three weeks ago:
