You know when metal Jesus puts that hair back in a pony tail he means business
HAHAHAHAHA. So true! :)
I love the fast forward bit he keeps brushing his hair back every few seconds for like 30 minutes straight then just says fuck it
Loser McPooser 😂😂😂
Ita the equivalant of ash Ketchum turning his hat backwards
@@kylejohnson5585 lmao legit
Man, I can’t wait to see how you display everything.
You never realize how much crap you have until you move. I've moved a number of times thinking I didn't have much stuff....boy was I wrong! So happy for you and the new chapter in your life!
I love the use of the word “crap” in there 😂
I moved twice last year, and that's so true!
Yeah, seriously.
NEW CHAPTER!!!
It will take me one trip move my stuff who knows how May for his stuff
Dam that’s crazy my pap is 80 and is having his 3rd hernia and the doctors say they can’t do anything for him if it bursts!! So please send some prayers!!
i cant imagine the look on their face when they saw all those boxes and you said "thats only about 50%"
Even a horror like moving is fun, peaceful and interesting with the Metal Jesus
If I was one of the movers I would be less surprised by the epic game room and more surprised by the lack of snakes. Metal Jesus looks like a dude that most definitely owns at least one snake. XD
I don't know why this made me laugh
I used to admire the “if you haven’t used it in a year, you never will, and you should get rid of it” until I started pulling out and playing my retro systems lately with much joy
"Want me to do more big box PC gaming videos on my channel?" Hell yes mah man!
Agreed! I'm like lots of people here, I started on PS2/Gameboy and really have no idea what people were playing on PC back then!
Bring on the classic PC games!
I've been considering getting into collecting old school pc games, but it's just so far out there compared to what I'm used to, and I have no idea where I would even start. The point of my comment is to say that the more PC videos, the better! The more he does, the more it helps me get an understanding of what I want to go for for my eventual PC collection.
I imagine its a mix of emotions! Best of luck with the new place man!
As my best friend would say "I'd rather Sh!t a Pinecone Backwards, than move."
@C- Lab Yes!!!!! absolutely yes to this comment.
^ that's a real Donald Trump kinda thing to say lol
Truth....
Just wanted to say those red tabs are really funny. I hope you can find a way to implement more of them into your videos.
Thanks! Those were fun to add to the video :)
Considering that you’re moving into a new house, maybe invest in some new shelving units that are all the same or similar color. Please don’t take my comment as being mean. I’m just a little OCD about a cohesive appearance and I think that would make your collection stand out even more. Always enjoy your videos.
Manuel Dunn - he could also paint them all white or something so they match without buying all new ones ✌️
Yes, uniformity makes a collection look so much more awesome.
Tech With Sean That’s a good option as well!
I agree id say go with black or dark wood/walnut shelving to give a contrast with the lighter colored walls. Also would match the dark couch. There are some sellers on ebay that make some amazing large video game related banners (up to 30 ft wide). Some of the ones I went with are Star Wars, TMNT, Back To The Future etc I have them all around the walls of my game room. Bigger pieces can make a cooler statement sometimes then a ton of smaller frames. Thats just my opinion youve got a lot of walls to decorate.
I agree. With millions of views he certainly has the RUclips Ad Revenue to warrant making his setup much more professional looking. It will easily pay for itself rather quickly by improving the production quality. Time to get rid of the poor man's budget ikea shelves!
"So this is the current state of my new game room."
100/10 Don't change a thing
Props to the guys who moved all this. I hope all goes well in the new house Jason! Congrats on the Gamecube Kiosk!
It is so satisfying to watch you pack those boxes.
I can't imagine being a collector of that magnitude and having to move it all. Hope everything works out, cheers!
Sadly, this might be my reality in a year or two. I am planning to move out of my parents house and have over 900 games in my collection. Along with a ton of collectors edition boxes and a handful of figures. Not looking forward to that part of the move.
With a collection that large, I'd watch any movers like a hawk.
yup
As you should. Can't trust no one !
I don't blame you. I work for a moving company full time. Each job I'm on, I tell my crew if ANYONE reports to me about ANYTHING being stolen or I see anything being stolen, I will have them prosecuted to the full extent of the law. and that's if I don't break their bones first.
@@Xx1SailorScoutxX im a mover aswell ill break fingers for yah if they take anything.. i never understood why people think its a good idea to steal working for a moving company.. number 1 its not that difficult to figure out who did it or even notice it for that matter. number 2 you can make alot more money doing this then you can selling that ring you just stole.. if you get good enough theres no reason why you cant have $200 days as a good mover. ive planted easy targets for people just to see and caught maybe 2 people in 10 years so luckily around here people are normally good for their word. i also dont work for no fly by night company so our guys are all good. i agree 100% some of those cheaper companies who pay there guys pennies are the ones you should be looking out for. i dont need to steal when i get paid well and usually when you take care of your client they typically take care of you.. plus karma would smite me if i stole anything lol lets be real.. and if i gotta have a pep talk with my guys about theft then i probably have the wrong guys.. good help is hard to find brother..
Moving companies around here love to lift things. The more stuff you move the more they think you'll not miss a box or two of stuff.
It’s definitely like a game of Tetris. I’d say, as you’re moving around, monitor and picture where you’d want your furniture to set. Visualize how your setup would look and then proceed to arrange accordingly. Of course being neat and organized is no issue, as I’d be certain you’d want it that way yourself. But that’d be my suggestion. I wish I could do that for the house we currently live in.
I put all my old controllers in Ziploc bags to keep the dust off of them and avoid needing to twist the cords up, or worse yet, wrap a rubber band on them. They just go loose into the bag and then placed in a plastic bin. Each controller gets its own bag, cheap and effective.
If there’s 3 rooms available, (and assuming that the collections are big enough to make this idea worth doing), I’d do one dedicated to retro, one to modern (PS2 or PS3-Switch), and one to the PC stuff.
Also, I’d try to alphabetise them as they’re unpacked, so that it’s easier to manage I guess (also stacking them horizontally makes them easier to handle I’d say).
Can’t wait for the finished product! :)
I think organizing by system->Genre->Alphabetic it's the best solution for games.
And maybe the music collection would be spread along the different rooms. A few particular genres in each room.
Had the same thought. Definitely, make the room with the fire place the modern game room. Also, alphabetizing can be a bit of a pain, but it makes everything easier in the long run. If I didn't have alphabetizing then I would easily loose track of what I own.
Three rooms? I'd make the largest the Game Room for hosting parties, the second largest a Museum for all the "do not touch" items, and the third room could be soundproofed and turned into a streaming studio.
MyNameIsBucket the small one would have to be the museum which may prove troublesome. I suppose Jesus could work his magic and squeeze it all in ;)
Oh, natural light?!? - that’s good and healthy an all but sun is a COLOUR KILLER of box art dood!!!!
Most modern windows are UV treated, and you can buy reflective window tint to block even more UV.
actually you should check out the 8-bit guy he did a video on this a while back, he has a retro computer room and he had to treat his windows and change out the lights because the plastic yellows from UV. it was quite interesting.
I’ve said this a thousand times before (at least to myself), but you seem like a really chill dude. Reggie as well.
I moved from Rhode Island to Florida in May 2019, those Home Depot boxes were so useful!
Rich Mello
Who lives in Rhode Island lol
RI its such a tiny state that by moving you left it deserted.
PAWTUCKET !!!!
He blocks his fireplace with an entertainment center - bad feng shui!
ive thought about it but just can't. Even if its rarely used gotta love a fireplace. Hopefully he changes his mind and we see it in action in the background
Also since he lives in Seattle and it gets cold and snowy Jason should probably use that fireplace to laid back with his lady and drink hot cocoa and get warm.
@@jd-py5nm Personally, I see it as a big space saver putting the TV right in front of the fire place, but I see your point. Fire places are a nice source of heat especially on the really cold days.
That smoke would make all the games start to smell. I wouldn’t use it in a game room.
@@russellhellyer4957 That is true. Also, it might cause some of his systems and games to darken or yellow. I know it happens with cigarette smoke at least.
07:51 How to get crushed by a semi truck 101
I'm also moving into a new home currently!!! My FIRST home purchase!! So anxious and excited also
Congratulations on the new house! I’m tired just watching all the packing and moving.
Not only is he the Metal Jesus, but also the Metal Flash.
When you get to your new home you should do a full play through of every game before you put it back on a shelf! You should be done sometime around 2043! :-D
Moving is one of the most overwhelming and stressful moment in anyone’s life. It also reveals how much useless crap you own. 😱
I'm 21 currently and I am just prepared for the useless amount of crap I'm going to accumulate over my years on this planet
streamline6666
Yea, I feel you. I don’t own a HUGE library of games like MJR, but I still have many retro consoles like the ColecoVision and up. I’m not getting rid of them anytime soon.
Agreed. I work for a moving company full time, and with some of the jobs I get thrown on, it makes me want to simplify even more, and I'm in an apartment!!
11:00 Leave the big cube on that wall near the window (it's behind the sofa at 11:03), put the low cube under the window, put second big cube where the low cube was (fireplace wall). You don't want anything up to block the window, so the window is most of the lower height stuff.
I just moved this passed Saturday. I'm still unpacking and moving stuff around six days later.
I'm moving soon and I don't look forward to that. LOL
I moved four years ago and there are still boxes in the attic that I SWEAR I will unpack one of these days.
Who passed on Saturday? RIP
That overtake at 7:52 is just begging for an accident.
I still wish I had a bigger home to spread out my game collection more than I can. On the PSVR you missed one of the early titles that was really fun Eve: Valkyrie!
I would set up the game room like this
Room 1: All game storage, wall to wall filled with games.
Room 2: Where you actually play the games, your TVs, monitors, consoles, etc. (Maybe where that mini bar thing was)
Smaller room: For PC gaming where you have your old PC and monitor set up.
Just an idea, because I don’t have as many games as you to set up 😭
I would recommend installing a security bar for that sliding door, so even if the lock is picked or pried the door won't be able to slide open.
All that video game goodness behind a sliding door is a worrisome prospect in my eyes.
As sad as it is to say, if someone wants something bad enough, nothing will stop them from getting it.
@@HeartzInk Well, it kind of stops the new people who try to break in...the Noobs. Personally, I cut a 2 X 3 just long enough to work perfect, and never had a problem....
Just cut down a broom handle to fit in the guide railing.
@@HeartzInk Buck shot will lol
That won't do much of anything(only block sliding it), if anyone were planning to really rob going through that sliding door... they would just smash it - as simple as that. What he needs is add something like this but with a better lock for security in front of the sliding doors: i.imgur.com/qauTYG9.jpg
I loved seeing this process. Great video! End of an era and the beginning of a new, super exciting one!
Watching one putting games in boxes is more interesting than "The Game Awards 2019."
thats actually the way we pack them too.. a vanline would of used paper sheets but for the most part thats how id pack a game room too.. it was oddly satisfying to watch someone who has no idea that there doing it right lol.. ive seen so many questionable pack jobs in my days as a mover.. its mind blowing how something so simple is soo beyond some people.. pack one of those boxes with the games flat instead o of vertical and watch the box be crushed on the other end.. then the shipper who packed their own boxes get mad at us for crushing the box.. sorry i have to fill the truck and not every box can be a top load.. if you care about your stuff and have no idea how to pack hire a moving company to do it for you or expect some damages... if its super fragile take a page from this video and take it with you.. of course id never say it like that to a customer but i mean come on you cant fix stupid. i cant tell you how many times ive seen "fragile" on a open untapped box with nothing but lose glass in it.. -.-
Always been a big fan of your presence on RUclips! Congrats on the move, hope the new place feels good!
I can’t wait to see a new tour once you guys are settled in and everything is back in the game room, once again congrats on the new home MJ🥳🤘🏼
Good luck with your new home! Hope you guys will have many many great years and new memories there.
If you’re looking for a great desk/work table consider mounting a kitchen countertop to a wall somewhere. It can be any length you need. There’s no legs or other obstructions underneath it because it’s bolted to the wall with big “L” brackets and the backsplash prevents anything from falling behind it.
I’ve got an attractive, 10 foot long kitchen countertop bolted to the wall in my games room and it’s the best desk I’ve ever had. I used 3” Tapcon screws to bolt it to the concrete wall. It’s so strong you can even sit on it. Best of luck MJ. 👍🏼
I'm definitely going to look Into that down the road! Thanks
U-Haul store clerk: how many boxes do you need?
MetalJesusRocks: yes
Props to the moving company for doing a great job.
They were being watched by the client AND they were being filmed. What else would they do?
(I'd like to see hidden cams of some movers. Bet we'd see some good AND bad!)
JuggaloSupreme ok?
JuggaloSupreme ok?
Good luck with the move man!
Oh this is bitter sweet! The end product will be immense though 💪
This is really awesome seeing a video of your move and the movers. Ive worked for a moving company myself for the past three years and really enjoy the customer interaction and basically getting paid to stay fit and work out. Haha
I just started collecting about a year ago and i watch your videos all the time to get new ideas and content to play. What to look for and everything. Youre like a mentor for game collecting. My birth mom lives in tacoma Washington and i visit her sometimes. Id love to meet you when im out there!
Theme each room. By decade. 80’ 90’ 2000’s.
I like that idea. Maybe they could decorate each room in the style of that decade too.
Problem with this idea is that the 2000s room will never cease growing XD
That's a pretty good idea actually.
As someone with a large gaming collection myself and having moved into multiple rooms recently.
I organised by the screens. I had 3 main setups, CRT TV, CRT Monitor, Modern Flatscreen TV. Then I divided all my setups, for example my Dreamcast, System 2x6 and Naomi 2 (last 2 are arcade systems if anyone is confused) went on the CRT Monitor, SNES/N64 generation stuff went on the CRT TV and PS3 gen onwards (with exception being Wii which I have on the CRT TV) going on the modern flatscreen.
Don't forget to recalibrate your CRTs after the move.
You better throw these movers a party when you are setup with all the stuff.
Lol
@Jp111 I know that, those guys probably want to se the fill collection setup and not in boxes.
Something I noticed while you were moving. When the movers were moving stuff, I saw the 1st Zebra album! I'm a huge fan of Zebra! They're from New Orleans, La. I live an hour and 15 minutes from New Orleans. I'm in Mississippi. I grew up listening to Zebra! Love your videos! Great stuff!
ACEDBH Mississippi to brother!
Alabama here. I need to check them out!

@@djphildeez6357 Right, I lived in Seattle for over a decade and experienced the coffee craze, and I'm not even a coffee drinker.

I like the way the white desk is facing away from the wall, it could make for good spot to record yourself reviewing a piece of hardware, software, etc, and want a close up, or with a chair next to it can be used to do interviews. Can't wait to see the house when you are all done putting things in their place.
It's gotta be so exciting to plan out and set up the new room!
What the 21 hours ago?
Of course, there is always option to leave some things in boxes and then open and take them into use when needed. I just realized after moving that it is good to have also working space.
3:44 Reggie: "OMG Jesus" that was funny ! 😁
Love the profile of the movers portion of the video. There’s nothing better than meeting people and learning they have a similar interest that’s not on the same level but you both have something to relate to. Good luck setting up.
Did I hear Amiga? 😁 i'd like to see a nice setup and some vid about that (or did I missed a video like that?😅) PD: that Gamecube kiosk is awesome, i love that machine.
SLD-SNaKe I agree a MJR Amiga video is needed!
Those cats will be in empty box heaven once you start unpacking.
I'll take your free boxes! :D I'm moving next year. I'm up in Canada though, so if you can just drive thousands of miles/kilometers to deliver them that would be much appreciated. Cheers! 😂
Moving a few times lead me to sell most of my collection. True story. I was painful aware that game hoarding is a sickness.
Man I would be super nervous about my collection being transported without me having it in site. I have always transported it myself while furniture travels separate. Just in case something breaks then it's all on me.
Can't wait to see the completed project!
I always lose some games etc whenever I move, no idea what happens to them lol
Super Nicktendo insurance. I have a lot of very valuable items. I usually pay about 3-4 K for full coverage insurance. Not worth it other wise.
Yeah most likely the movers will pilfer your stuff if you're not on site seeing your belongings while moving.
@@Thollis1987 stuff falling off the truck is a big concern
Awesome, congratulations. Looking forward to seeing the video on your new setup.
When my wife and I eventually buy a home, I seriously want one with a fireplace in the basement like that. That's the neatest thing ever!
Congratulations dude!! How exciting!!! I just moved in and still working on my game room/ theater
My recommendation for layout would be: a room for consoles, and a room for retro computers (PC, Amiga, Commodore 64). Perhaps a third room / overflow for handhelds?
I love the layout of the new place and I can’t wait to see what you do with it!
The first things that come to me as far as setting up I would say definitely tint those windows or get some blackout curtains so the light does damage any of your collectibles, I love the way you have the tv in front of the fireplace but if you haven’t already you should put a board or something over it to cut down on dust. That’s all I can think of right now but I hope everything is going smoothly with the move, I know what a pain it can be, especially with a large collection!
Congratulations on the new house and I look forward to the next update video because I’m also in the process of moving
This was so short, I could watch this for hours. And that Gamecube kiosk just for beer. So jealous :D
I packed and moved recently and it was interesting the memories that come to mind when sorting through and packing your stuff. Its like reliving the past.
MJ may the force be with you my friend. Those boxes OMG!!! Legendary~
I just got married a few months ago. We moved into an apartment while my wife finishes school. Most of my collection is sadly packed in boxes at my parent’s house. One day I’ll be able to bring everything back into a proper game room.
I wouldnt wish the moving from house to house process on my worst enemy! Good luck buddy!!
I work in libraries, so my advice comes from that context...
1) You have a lot of games and findings a shelving scheme for your games might be a good idea at this point. (Probably by system and then alpha by title). A mis-shelved item in a collection is often a "lost" item.
2) You might want to even try spine labels (and yes you can find labels that are designed to peel ... just invest in a decent printer so that the ink doesn't fade over time.) Figure out early on how many characters you can fit on the label. And remember that labels can be stuck to the front of the box or even inside. If labels wont work, perhaps tags with strings ... though that gets messy. Sample ...
SNES
Super Mar 2
3) I noticed that you have some pretty big windows. Watch out for fading!
4) Think about a "feature" display shelf. Even if it is just for you. Libraries want to circulate books. Books on "display" are almost always more attractive than those on the shelves. Plus, you will have fun putting the display together!! And you wont forget about some of your games.
5) Books on the bottom most shelf and on the top most shelf circulate almost 50% less than books at eye level. For you, eye level might be the top shelf! I'd suggest keeping stuff like game systems on the bottom level.
Room one: Current Gen. Room two: Retro Den. Room three: Merch Museum
Great idea!
Well done really looking forward to seeing how the new setup will look in future videos

I remember a few months ago you were talking about mold in your basement. I guess it doesn't matter anymore.

When he's all unpacked he should make a giant fort.
Look forward to updates& seeing the crew together. Near & far y'all rock & good fortune to all.

I plan on moving soon myself and looking at this video for tips. Thanks!
"LOOK AT ALL THOSE BOXES"
JAMES ROLFE
Absolutely utilize the vertical space. May seem obvious when it comes to your game display. Just watched Erin Plays' game room tour and she had a lot less to work with but it helped.
My dear friend, it's almost 2020. I think 4K is EXTREMELY overdue.
Happy holidays.
I imagine he's like myself and many other gamers and has a 4k TV and consoles in his living room, then 1080p plasma, HD CRT, and an old SD CRT (or 3) in the "game room".
I mean the resolution of this video. It looks HORRIBLE on my 4K oled.
Congrats @ MetualJesusRocks I am so happy this worked out, ever since the water damage video, I was put on suspense mode on the future of the gameroom, this is def going to work out a lot better!
Definitely put PC in the second room with all the Big Box PC stuff. It may also be an idea to put your personal less popular consoles for play back there if you don't have enough space for them all out in the main room. Try to keep the Kiosk and you arcade cabinet together if possible, they look nice together. Its hard for me to help with exact detailing because I'm not there but I believe in your ability to set it up well and look forward to seeing it.
never saw such great caring moving people wow they really were not only organized and fast but they took great care in how they loaded and unloaded everything from beginning to the new house
7:41 LMFAO that was so random hahahahaha
I love moving :-) Live in my current house for about 9 years now, and space is getting an issue since most of my games are packed because there is no space left.
Damn! You’re fast MetalJesus! 🤣
I pack my games the same way. Love your show, and the camradere between you and your friends! I moved from Seattle too, and I miss it so much. Good luck to you!
Movers: Whats with the weird white dude and the camera?
When all the moving will be done and your new room will be set up, you should invite the moving squad to your place to play games with them, they seem nice guys and I think they deserve it a little!
I’m going to miss your old game room and no matter how hard I try I will never get used to your new room
i dont think he cares XD
JeremySheer Ok IDC if he doesn’t care
