    I love the philosophy at the start of the video and your general tone in this video, it may just be about constructing shelves but also has so much emotional content, we get to find out more about our beloved Gemma. I can also totally relate to your childhood, I spent many hours wandering around game shops and staring at boxes. This is probably why I too find so much comfort in gaming.

    Interesting childhood story Gemma. I don't know why but it seems many gamers have histories of childhood problems. Maybe games were just a common therapy that many people used and we still use as adults.

    This is a similar story to mine. My mum was a single parent when I was growing up so I didn’t get the nice things my friends did. My friends all had PlayStations etc and I absolutely loved playing video games, but it only really happened when I went to friends houses. I had a Sega Master system but only a couple of games. My mum gave me what she could. But, I became obsessed with the things I couldn’t have. Now that I’m 37, I’ve become obsessed with collecting old games and consoles. Just being in retro game shops makes me feel warm and comfortable. It’s a happy place. Expensive. But happy.

    I had a very abusive and traumatic childhood and games were always my escape from that reality. Even now in my 30’s with kids of my own they are a place I go for comfort. I often play back through those games I loved as a kid because in an odd way they feel like home.

    I totally understand what you say about your childhood staring at games in blockbusters and Wollys, I used to do exactly the same thing!
    And I get what you mean, retro/indie gaming (and gaming in general TBF) stops my mind going to anxiety, depression and anger!

    I can relate to your experiences 30 years ago (for me it was about 35 years ago) I was the same, life could get really dull and boring, no bros or sisters (boohoo me😂) and computers were a little bit of light in a dark corner. I think that’s the root to the appreciation for them… they helped us, quite a lot of us judging by how many retro enthusiasts there are. 😊😊😊

    I know what you mean about having a troubled childhood. We never had much money so I would only get a new game on Christmas or my birthday if we could afford it at the time. Now as an adult, I collect basically to fulfill the stuff I wish I could have had as a kid. I suppose you could say I trying to relive the childhood I wish I had. Maybe we all have a special reason for collecting stuff not just video games but other stuff like toys, baseball cards, or whatever. Trying to capture some moment in time we could feel better about our lives. If you don’t mind me asking gema, are you a psychiatrist? Just curious cause you sometimes talk in education language rather than in layman’s terms. lol

    Fantastic reflection on those childhood memories. I always viewed games and movies as an escape, even just browsing the store shelves, which is probably why we surround ourselves with them in our game's rooms. It wasn't until I was diagnosed with ADHD that I realised I was simply trying to regulate and give my racing mind a break for a few hours. Have you ever read up on neurodivergent tendencies/behaviours?

    You talking about going to Woolworths, etc, to look at the games honesty brought up memory of mine.
    As a kid, I and a few friends. Rain or shine would walk to Comet, talking an hour and a half walk to play on the kiosk. Or Woolworth, where i would buy Gamesmaster mag, turtle figs, or WWF figures 😂.
    Even though between us we had Snes, megadrive and commador. It was just fun to do it because we were with our mates. Great times, what kids today just dont get. Honestly, great times

    To move things around, you should use boxes. Loads of em so you can load it up and move it around like that. Also you should use elasto bands, that will help a lot. Keeps track of things more neatly and doesn't get clusterbombed all the time if you know what I mean. ;) Especially if they are alphabetized. :D

      I agree, but what I did was just get a roll of felt adhesive strips you can get (for cutting to put on the bottom of furniture to stop it marking the floor etc) and just stick 2 lengths of that along the shelves - I find it gives enough of a lip to nicely stop game cases pushing back and gives you the depth you'd want
