I honestly never thought this would happen: the need for a bookcase for my strategy guides.
I used to store all of my strategy guides in my entertainment center, under the shelves for my games and DVD boxsets. I think the space is supposed to be for a sub-woofer, but it stored my guides just fine. As of last week, I could no longer fit all my guides in there. I had to relocate them to my bookshelves in my office. I have one shelf open since we bought more shelves a few weeks ago, so I moved my guides in there this morning.
They even fill up that entire shelf! It’s a good thing that I don’t want any of the games coming out in April and May, because I have no space whatsoever. I’m actually going to have to invest in a bookcase strictly for my guides.
However, I must say that that one shelf in my office is the most colorful shelf out of all my shelves, even those with the children’s books.

You should arrange them by color ROYGBIV style. It would be so pretty.

I shelve my strategy guides with my pc games. Some of my older pc games are the old big-box kind, and they are close enough that they fit together. I lay them on their back face with the pages wall-side and they fit much better (without bending) than if you stand them up. If you own too many, pop some on amazon. Sometimes it’s worth it to cull the weak.

I sell the guides to games I no longer own, but I keep the others because they’re like artbooks to me. That’s pretty much how I got started in collecting them in the first place. 🙂
