Typical grass. Won't grow where you want it. Flourishes where you don't.

Cool setup man. A gutter would probably solve your rain runoff issues. Any contractor worth their salt should be able to make you a small gutter system.

I love this. I just have a megacade im trying to fix up. Bought a 32 inch large cab to keep that nastalgia feel that i had when i was a child. 44 years old now. Trying to upload as many as steam sidescrollers to it as possible. I always promised myself if i ever made money...ill get an arcade cab. Bought one during quarantine and have gutted added and changed buttons. Added over 4000 games. Im going to add plenty so when i retire..ill have tons of games to go through.

I did a similar project. Built a 10X12 shed and turned it into a home office. I've had mine for about 6 years with no major issues. An unsolicited tip: for those rock patch you have on the left and right of the entrance if you want you can easily fill in those spots with holly bushes. Lowes sells little ones for about 20 bucks a plant. They grow fast, are hardy and keep their leaves in winter. After about two years you will need to start pruning them but they only really need to be cut twice a year, once if you don't mind them being a little shaggy. A slight downside is if you over prune the plants or animals start eating on them the leaves will become very sharp. But if you leave them alone they are a fine landscaping plant and need little to no maintenance. The roots can go down to about 17-25 inches, so best not to plant them over any wiring that is not encased in PVC pipe. Alternatively you could also use Juniper bushes. I have a couple of them too. They grow VERY slow and their needles can be sharp but I have not had to prune them in the 6 years I have had'em.

Great job on your project! I believe the weight of the machinery inside would benefit you more than the hurricane anchors-though I do understand your way of thinking. Besides, if you experience winds that move the building, you'll have other things to worry about!😃

Put a guttering around your shed please 🙏🏽. Outside of that nice set up 🙌

Bro, you got CarnEvil, Hydro Thunder, and Mortal Kombat II Cabinets, that is sooooooooo dang sick! Love the contents bro. Glad you got it up and going! Great work! Might inspire me!!!

That’s awesome my friend I never knew you had this out back I assumed it was upstairs in your house or something. That’s absolutely AWESOME! 👊🏼

Congrats on making your dreams a reality man. I know it sounds hokey but you're an inspiration. Maybe someday I'll listen to my kids and start filming my arcade adventures.

TBH I would invest in doing a floor pour for ur foundation. Just saying. Definitely makes a bigger difference depending on where you live, but it also gives you a ton more options for various things with it, like deciding to build an underground bunker 😉 I know it sounds crazy but it's the coolest thing to bust out to company when showing off a place like that. Mine was my man-cave originally until I built it and then decided to build an even bigger underground bunker under it. Then it became like a little chill/smoke game area with my PS4 and PSTV etc so my PS4 can connect to my PS5 and play via system connect etc. But when theu ask about "all these arcade games etc they have been hearing about" and you either pop a latch or in my case I hit a switch that pops up a hidden door. When they get underground via steps albeit slightly tight with head room going down, they see an enormous T.V connected to a custom built walk up 4 player cabinet setup where you can go and choose your games. I did purchase a set of the Terminator 2 gunner arcade games since they come with the guns and everything already setup to play. Then sleeping area off to the side (cause if ur gonna have a bunker it obviously needs to have a sleeping area and food storage just incase. Otherwise u will regret that shit should u need it) and food storage off in a seperate little space I carved out underground that is designed for air flow to keep things much cooler. I

Hi, I'm one of those random people that youtube randomly suggested your video to me, and I clicked on it as a first time viewer. Thanks for posting this. I'm doing the 'save up for a home arcade' dream while rocking an Arcade 1up cab or two, and I sometimes look for videos on home arcades for inspiration to work hard and keep the money in the bank. I live in a desert with very hard clay soil (Las Vegas), and I always wondered how to get a home with a home arcade, when we don't have basements out here like most people. Doing something like a shed has given me a lot of ideas so thank you!

That looks fabulous man. You did such a great job! Nice rock band drum kit too.

Turned out great, dude! It's held up pretty well. If it were mine, I'd put a ramp style porch on it. I have one on my mobile home and it makes taking arcade games in and out way way easier.

Put neon lights outside that say Arcade and give it a cool paint job with some fluorescent colors to give it that retro arcade vibe… ;)

Your shedcade is a wonderful place--thanks for showing us around! Always enjoy seeing behind the curtain :)

You really have grown like I remember when you were called “modding arcade1up” and you had like 4 arcade1ups in your small room and now you have 4-5 full arcade machines in your backyard

Rent a tiller and till your yard 3-4 inches. Spread new grass. Rake the seed into the loose soil. Put down hay/straw. Spreading grass food also helps. Water the lawn 30 minutes in the AM and 30 minutes in the evening every day for 2 weeks unless it rains.

Wow, what a great build. I knew i would find a youtube video showing exactly what i want to build (arcade/music room)

Looks like you're ready to build 2 or 3 more as you run out of space :D Found your channel months ago when you first got killer instinct and were struggling to find room for Rush. So glad this came across my feed, awesome to see how far you've come.

Very nice, I know your short on space but I actually made mine so that the machines recess in the walls so the controls are actual level with the walls and it really gives that extra bit of room. My arcade sis 30 by 10 and I got permission to build up but the taxes are insane if I do it. Keep up the good work.

Sold our house a year ago and am looking to buy one in our budget that has a 2 car garage and a basement big enough to fit a couple of full size arcades. This is very inspiring to know that a seemingly decent person - (don't know you personally ;) - can dream and achieve some happiness.

When I move I'm doing something similar to this but I'm going to have an area in the corner that's ventilated so we can smoke weed and cigars.

Former roofer. You really need gutters on the are you see erosion around the structure and issue with the out side walls. Plus you will want to direct the water away from the cinder blocks.

Shed cade looking great my friend! You can tell how passionate someone is about something by how well it’s been taken care of and that thing looks amazing still!👍

Awesome setup!! Get some sand for you grass. In the areas that won’t regrow, just pour some sand in those areas and it will creep over it more easily. That’s the cheapest and easiest way other than just simply waiting for nature to take its course. You can always seed it and use chemicals but that can get expensive and you seem like the same type of guy as me. Do everything you can yourself and do it for the best deal that won’t screw you over lol.

I assume somebody has already pointed out that the reason that "waterproof" outlet leaked is because it is stuck on to the outside of the shed rather than recessed into the wall (like any other exterior outlet). Still an easy fix and something you should do sooner rather than later.

I love this so much! I have a game room in the house but when we buy a house of our own and some land I'm totally doing this!

that rock band setup is sick

A 5 inch aluminum gutter and down spout would divert the water away from the front door. The only reason I could see it’s not there is possibly there isn’t a proper facial board to mount the gutter.

Friggin awesome! RUSH The Rock, probably my favorite game of all time👍 Path idea: use bricks to make an 8-bit scene. Mario world 1 instantly come to mind.

It looks awesome!

That's a nice drumset. Pretty cool you use it to play Rock Band.

Sweet setup!

Simply the best shed based arcade I've ever seen. Awesome!

man i want a shedcade

That’s my man!

Hey i just found the channel through this video. It's duch a sick set upyou have with your arcade. Always wanted to do one of my own. You seem like a great guy. Subbed

It kind of looks like my old school outside but smaller. Not kidding. I went to DAVE School on the back lot of Universal Studios. Back then the school was in a triple wide trailer with a wood deck in the front. The school was also blue instead of yellow.

I love it. Gives me some ideas for creating an overflow arcade/mancave. I currently have a basement arcade but I’m running out of room. This is awesome. Well done 🎉❤

You could snake another outlet straight up on the wall easily if you have one lower on the wall.

This looks amazing, great work!

you need to lay some plastic on the grass under the building. that grass will draw a lot of moisture under your building and possibly damage your floor on the shed.

I'm not the only one that has lights for Rock Band! I also use a "real" electric kit to play. How great is this whole set up? Awesome stuff.

a year already? It's amazing!

should add a cheap gutter to each side you can get them cheap at Menards or most places to get stuff like that and they're easy to install.

Love the shedcade man! Glad you are enjoying it and having great memories there. Love the channel. 😊

This is awesome! If I could I would totally do this.

That's really cool and inspiring! Thanks for making a video!

If you put the machines back to back in the center you can use your walls too.

think i'll take all of it out and just live these seeing how tuff it is to find a place to rent now a days yeah, this guys got aaan Arcde...

Looks Amazing Chris . Really enjoy your content keep up the great work .

Looks about the way I'd build one. Killer Instinct being the most vital. If were to do one, I'd probably try to do Primal Rage, Motocross, MK2, TMNT and Cybersled with the obvious KI games.

Aj styles and austin creed are drooling

By Arcade 1Ups! :)The real thing is the way to go.

>carnevil this man knows whats up

Looks good Kris 👍 right on man

Great work!!!! Awesome!!!!!

It's funny that's exactly how the convo would go with my wife too. "Honey I want a shedcade" - "OK but isn't that expensive....?"

We have the same apron. Los pollos hermonos.. lol Awesome shed cade

What you should do is get a fuck ton of roms get an ultra short throw projector build wireless arcade sticks for mobile use and get awesome seats for your 130” hd arcade wall and install a refreshment bar to your liking 😎 or just keep doing what you’re doing because you looked blissful in the video props on the mk4 cab

Oh man I thought it said She Shed...this is way cooler lol. Awesome!

You should stain that trim you made the same color as the steps.

Hell yea Rush AND Hydro Thunder. Rock looks good around the shed

If you wanna do what I did is paint the extension cord same color as the wall or get one of those cord cover things and paint that the same color as the wall but yeah that white cord stands out but it looks good

I found your channel from this video. I currently use a box trailer for my arcade room but am looking into building something with actual insulation. Lol

What I found is that it’s not an arcade unless it’s public and anyone can fill it anytime. I also own an garage Cade but with just me in it - it’s just a geek-cade

That BUG @ 9:21!

What, no pinball machine? Can't be an arcade without a pinball machine.

Love the Breaking Bad Funko Pop set. I have it as well.

Beautiful Cade room man. I like it.

I love this. I subscribed.

First time watching your videos and finding your channel. I'm not a arcade player but I can imagine how cool having a full blown gaming room for sega/nintendo yadda yadda, still cool though.

I’d put a little bathroom in there in case I needed to drop a deuce or just to smoke a bong in.

I need a friend like you to hang out with. 👍🏽🎮👾

Mancave High Score! Place your 3 initials in alpha font on the front door :D

I wonder if there is a weight limit concern with a shed on pillons like that... those classic og cabinets are heavy as hell.

Awesome shed!

Neat idea for an arcade, all that's missing is a token machine to the right of the steps ;)

Bro I love it 🎉🎉🎉

Wow this is so awesome congrats!

You have a wonderful arcade shed! Fun fact, you should do a comprehensive video for insurance purposes that can be in future claims. Also, consider a permanent structure and a multi-cade. :D

Epic real video

Lotaburger!

Awesome shed and looking forward to new arcades if you get any in the future! Ya I guess like everything stuff can be changed and improved upon and updated after using for a while but just tweaks you notice which is cool. Also if m a big breaking bad fan too and that is an awesome gift from lady kag! I would never have thought to try that with famous people but that’s the power of the internet

Man it looks fun asf in there

Blake’s bag 🤟🏾🤟🏾🔥

want your grass to come back get some straw and grass seed and lay the straw in the yard then lay you grass seed and water it then leave it alone the straw will retain the moisture and help the grass grow

Chris my duuude! Its so cool that you actually made the shedcade a reality and sorry about missing the live streams. Im always at work but hopefully I can catch the next one. Any recent roach stories?lol

I'm fascinated by how Americans build houses, sheds and such. Form my perspective as European I see them as the first house from "Three Little Pigs" tale. Your tornadoes are no joke but jesus, use bricks and concrete or fear every seasonal huff and puff 👀

Ever thought about having gutters installed? Bet that make huge difference

Can't believe It's been a year, time flies. Looking good. Nice pad. 👌

If only there was a way to consolidate all of those games onto one cabinet.:-p Should have shifted the door slight to align with back of house. But well done overall. I dig it

Love it 😅 why not an arcade one up or one of those machines that does multiple games 1000's ?

Cool setup

Call me crazy but your Shed Cade looks bigger on the inside than it does on the outside. Also if I were you, I would get a token dispenser. It doesn't have to work but it brings back old memories. Lol!

With it having electricity and cooling, did the city say something since it’s. It just a “storage shed”? Thanks

Bro got a Backyardcade

You would have needed permits from the town because you were building a fixed structure on your property right?

Some people have all the luck in the world, just kidding i'm happy you can have your childhood at your home. Grtz to you and Mrs KAG

I thought that statue was Psylocke lol
