Video Game Organization for a Clean Look and Efficient Gaming

Game organization isn’t just organizing your games; it’s everything that revolves around your games. Your game setups, the games themselves, controllers, headsets, VRs, cords, and more. To create a clean look while keeping your gaming as efficient as possible, we need to organize it.

Why You Need Clean and Organized Gaming

Those who game probably already have an organization that works for them. Those that are just starting or fun game may need a bit more assistance within this area. Imagine you come home from a hard day at work or school and you’re thinking of playing a game. You look around the room and you can’t seem to find the game you want to play, you’ve misplaced your controller or it’s completely dead, or while digging around for what you’re looking for, you encounter massive amounts of cords.

The frustration and stress of not finding and playing right away can make your day even worse. Like my husband, who feels if there is a button on something, that button should always work and do as it should.

Not only will your gaming be cleaned up, but depending on how you organize it, you could create an aesthetically pleasing presentation.

When proceeding to clean and organize your gaming area to create a pleasing and efficient gaming experience, you need a plan. You’ve collected systems, games, and all the accessories. Let’s see how we can give your gaming a clean look and become more efficient as you continue your gaming venture. The idea here is to have one space that holds all of your gaming gear that is organized and easily accessible to all parts.

Step 1: Plan Your Space

Plan Your Time

Your time is precious to you. You only have so much in a day. It’s good that plans are not a waste then.

In order to achieve the gaming space you desire, you must first plan your time. Schedule it so you can give it the dedication it needs. Schedule the time you need to plan, brainstorm, time to choose, gather, and bring your gaming space to life.

As with anything, you need to have a plan for your space or at least an idea of what you want the space to look like when it’s all finished. When planning, you can decide exactly how you want to organize all of your gaming systems, controllers, cords, and extras.

Decide what you’ll need to accomplish this task: more shelving, baskets, velcro, hooks, whatever you feel will help you organize your items in a way that benefits how you play. What you need will depend on whether you’ll be doing a complete overhaul or just adding a few things to offer better-organized efficiency. If you need some ideas, I’ve got a great post here for you to check out!

Keep Comfort In Mind

Comfort is important and sometimes it’s overlooked when creating a space you want to use for leisure. Most start with a normal desk chair or old couch. What do you want within the space that will provide the most comfort to you and your team as you game? Keep this in mind as you plan and organize your space.

Understand Who You Are/How You Game

You are the only one who knows how you game, what helps you game best, and what you need to have a good time while gaming. What things do you need to make your space work best for you?

Step 2: Gather Your Organizing Items

Once you’ve planned out your space and how you want it to look, gather what you’ll need to make this organization happen. You may or may not need to purchase items to store things in and make a clean presentation of your systems, games, controllers, and more.

Whether those items are baskets, shelving, hooks, velcro, or anything else; you want to make sure you have everything you need to get the job done right the first time. If you decide to do a complete overhaul, that’s great! Just make sure you have EVERYTHING you need, that includes any tools that may be required for building anything.

Step 3: Organize and Assemble

If there is anything to assemble, now would be the time to do that. If not, you can go ahead and start organizing your space to fit you. The idea here is to create a place for everything you have. When not in use, it goes back to that spot. No misplacements or fighting with things, just uninterrupted gaming.

The organization of your space may take some time to get right but follow your plan. This is what you made it for.

Feel free to move things around, and use different containers and methods. Remember this is all about your gaming space. The organization of the space is important for how you game and gaming efficiency.

Step 4: Enjoy!

The planning is finished, the gathering complete, and you’ve made your gaming space suit you best. Now all you have to do is enjoy!

You’ve done the hard work. You now have a reward that will continue for years to come. Of course, things may change, but you will change with them. Adjust what you need to; you know you can game without fighting with cords, losing your favorite controller, or any other mishaps that may come along.

Final Thoughts

Your gaming space is just like any other space you occupy at any time of the day. If it’s unorganized and messy, you’ll continue to have a poor experience with gaming. Your experience is what’s important, and you want that experience to be a pleasant one. Hopefully, these steps will assist you in getting your organization where you need it to be for your gaming experience.
