Gaming Setup and Studio Tour 2024 - How Coury Makes MLiG / MY LIFE IN GAMING

[@Voultar]

I really enjoyed this video. I love the basement and how buff Coury looks on camera.

[@palody_en-ja]

His camera added 10 lbs... Of muscle!

[@Sir_Redwood]

Really appreciate the comment about the value of your games. My young nephew asked me recently what my most valuable game was... My copy of Super Mario Bros. 2 on NES, which my 5'1" grandmother fought to buy me a copy for Christmas, for sure! No other copy, even of the same game, will ever be as valuable as the memory attached. Loved the video!

[@steeda6]

Well said... I have games like earthbound, chronotrigger, and other over 100 dollar games sitting on my shelf but MY copy of super mario world and ocarina of time and various other "cheap" are on display in plastic cart covers 😂. Value isn't always just monetary

[@symol30872]

All my most valuable games are the ones by Mum and Dad bought me as a kid. I don't keep those ones on display to protect them and have bought other copies to keep the originals safe.

[@geoffnaylor3734]

I was just expecting a great room tour but instead got a masterpiece that made me think about life in the context of the spaces we live in.

[@ThePhantomnaut]

23:35 Dragon Wang will always be my favorite Coury bit.

[@popeyedbark2115]

You beautiful people. It's finally here. Thank you!

[@Punisher6791]

part of being a gamer and a collector is about the journey we take, its not just about the games we play along the way, its also about where we play them and who we play them with.

[@dontetaylor]

My favorite part of this video was was that you not only that you showed what you have, but you explained why you decided on particular options, even if they needed customization or don't fit your needs 100%. Your creative solutions gave me ideas on things I can incorporate into my own streaming and production setup!

[@judahbestyt]

I first found you guys around 8 years ago when the first tour video was released, I was in middle school at the time and you completely blew my mind. Shortly afterwards, I checked out the rest of the channel and garnered a now deep-seeded appreciation for older games. Now I'm here once again, and I didn't know a space could be optimized this well. You guys have become responsible for so much of where my love for gaming lies, and for that I am grateful.

[@nathanielmills4678]

Have you played the top 16 bit games now?

[@waytoopesky]

waited 8 years for this video

[@Foxanic]

Amazing video! The end made me a little sentimental. Being very soon in my 40's you realise the process, moments and joys are all that matters after all. Much love from Norway!

[@worldoflongplays]

Awesome room and awesome channel!

[@theneedforspeeder9575]

You guys here too

[@andyfrey1612]

Great setup vid. The photo montage at the end was great. Cheers Coury and Try and happy late 11th channel anniversary!

[@scottdavisonline]

Your original setup diagrams made me take the plunge into a major multi-console setup. Years later I have scaled back considerably to keep things limited, hidden, and simple by design. Stuff like this is hella impressive.

[@danielguisado5317]

I imagine myself in that basement with all the consoles connected, sitting on the couch and falling asleep five minutes after starting to play 😂😂😂

[@Dorien837]

that's pretty much me now. I have everything I ever wanted but to tired lmao

[@richardwiech]

As somebody who only started watching the channel a few months ago (I bought a retrotink and your video was soooo helpful) I’m still learning a lot about both of you and I must say: I wasn’t expecting to agree with you so much about the rationale behind why you’ve built your setup the way you did! It’s great! We share a lot of the same habits lol it’s crazy, your setup is amazing and I hope one day mine will be as good. Looks like a super cozy relaxation cave and I want to build one of my own.

[@riky_diamonds]

Awesome vid, you killed it! Always nice seeing the pets and the fam enjoying the setup too. Thanks for sharing!

[@SEGASATURNSHIRO]

40:48 I like the magazine in the middle ;) Thanks again guys for the cameo and support! We at SHIRO all love MLIG!

[@cicabeot1]

This took me a few sessions to finish but it was worth it. You put a lot of effort into this setup. Im eager to see Try’s video when that’s ready!

[@ThatMacintalker]

the updated tour series might be my most anticipated release on this platform, ever! i first discovered MLiG through the original setup tour video as a scrawny middle schooler, with nothing more than a gamecube connected to a hand me down lcd TV over composite. now, 6 years later, i am working on the retro console setup of my dreams. this setup is beyond amazing and i hope to have one with a fraction of the beauty, efficiency, and optimisation of yours. thank you both once again for making amazing informative content for years now, what you both have done for the retro gaming community is truly astounding!

[@kamalzamer9443]

Thanks for making this Coury. Definitely took a lot of effort. It’s interesting to see the decisions you’ve made along the way and how it has influenced your setup. Always appreciate the craftsmanship in these videos and throughout the years.

[@jasper-byrne]

so happy to spot my game Lone Survivor in there

[@pinkace]

Bro, thank YOU for letting me be a part of your LiG :)

[@maximadrvr217]

Awesome episode! (Especially since I’m trying to update my setup now) Love you guys, thanks for what you do!

[@roberthernandez7564]

I've watched this several times now. Each time, I get another idea for my own setup. Thank you, Coury, for going so in-depth.

[@ChaosGenerator]

That's awesome, Coury. I am happy for you. The LEDs really add a flair that is hard to beat.

[@Unexpectedstuff]

One of the best videos on the channel. It’s serves its purpose, detailed and amazingly heartwarming

[@stareanddream]

It’s so beautiful. My favorite thing about your older setup videos was looking through the differences between Coury and Try’s setups. It’s the little things that inspire me, like how different the setups are, but still so easily working together! Looking forward to Try’s video soon!

[@Bodega_dASH_Goteem]

This is the best tour i ever seen, but outside the gaming space what really made my eyes open was subpop tshirt appearance at 23:48 🔥

[@RedGamingTech]

Absolutely love the setup; it is so awesome.

[@spiritro06]

thank you for letting me be part of your life in gaming

[@Cimone90]

Your videos have been such an invaluable resource. Please, please release physical copies on bluray or dvd

[@HindsightWithHustle]

That would be awesome. I’d definitely buy those Blu-ray

[@jimmyeddy]

I've been waiting for this since you uploaded that preview a year ago, this is going to be awesome!

[@scarrface28]

That PS4 /PS5 duel disc idea is genius!!

[@biggallcaps]

This is absolutely mind-boggling! I'm so happy you posted this because I love getting ideas of what to do for my setup. Thank you so much ✊️

[@JordYulK]

I really enjoyed watching this. It’s almost nostalgic in its own way. Thanks for putting this video together, Coury.

[@FoursideAssetManagement]

Amazing video Coury! What an incredible journey you have been on with your family, thank you for sharing it with us. Love the room! Looking forward to many more videos and Tri posting his updated setup soon, I hope!

[@jmopborba]

The amount of work that was given in this video is absurd, Coury really deserves a coffee for this one. Very entertaining to watch while doing some errands. Thank you!

[@yruhatin1988]

Every time I see a new MLiG upload it gets me so excited and I'm never let down! Thank you for all the work you have put in and all the joy you bring to all of us

[@enterthearcade]

Coury, this is such an awesome view behind the scenes. I love seeing your history of progression and how you made it here. Your current setup is the stuff of dreams for some of us, and this type of video is much appreciated. Definitely one of my new favorite comfort videos. And on top of that it's also very enlightening and educational - just as most of your videos are. Good stuff!!

[@groovesalad89]

Wow! Amazing setup and video! So cool!

[@JaySharknado]

I want to watch this at least 3 more times by the end of the week. Coury - both you and Try are amazing at what you do and it's always a pleasure watching an incredibly slick production you guys put on for the viewers out there. I'm not the best at checking the livestream, well, live - but I always try to check out some of the archives a few weeks later if something catches my eye. This was a great video and believe me - I just finished and I already want to watch it again to get some tips and tricks for my setups in the future. Thank you! P.S. - I commented on another video way back but man, that rainbow/pride colored Sub Pop sticker on the PVM is fantastic.

[@hideokojimajr]

Bro thank you so much. Now I can point to this video when my wife thinks my setup is getting out of hand. But honestly, thanks man, this is incredible what you've put together.

[@mariomartinez5820]

Great set up! I love the evolution your space went through. Here's to more years of gaming and MLiG!

[@hajilee4539]

Damn, that ending speech and montage got me in the feels. Thanks for everything Coury!

[@travisbowmanmusic]

I owe a lot to you guys, my setup exists because of your videos over the years. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! Thanks, Coury! Excited to see Try's video as well.

[@scarrface28]

thanks for making this video, i will definitely be watching it a few times before the next one!

[@NIC_Pineiro]

Dude thank you so much for this video. I'm such a fan and feel so privileged to be a witness to your passion for gaming! Stay blessed homie!

[@travisaurusdunk]

Thank you so much for this video! I really appreciate all of the thought and candor you put into this comprehensive room tour - y'all continue to put out some of the best, entertaining, educational, and heartening retro gaming content on KZbin Wishing MLiG many more years of success!

[@goldengladiator4856]

I had just watched the 2016 episode, glad to see a sequel!

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

Finally! A new setup video! I've always been curious how y'all's game rooms have changed over the years! Mine kind of changed a bit, but I still wish it could be better.

[@BaronStVon]

I appreciate the deep and pondering side you bring to it all. Always considering more than just the games themselves

[@yawnny9098]

Lovely setup tour. My stomach pangs with nostalgia at all the games, PVM's, Receivers, and more that I've sold over the last couple years while I attempted to "downsize", thinking I was going to get out of the hobby as deep as I was. Seeing videos like this makes me realize I should have kept up with it. All my RGB modded consoles, my PVM14M2U, my Denon Receiver, all those custom cables.. I digress. I appreciate the experience gained from having setup hardware just like this, but I feel I may have torn out a piece of who I was. Thanks so much for the inspiration and passion, Coury!

[@charlesdrake7119]

WE'RE SO BACK! Love the set-up, Coury!

[@TheRustyshackles]

I loved seeing my art still up on your walls!

[@SotNist]

Awesome set up. The wire array is mind boggling, and it's all so cozy and functional, dense but roomy enough somehow. Still has character.

[@DQFG]

Fantastic and a joy to see how far you have come. Try your up! Looking forward to seeing it!

[@Calv1ncc]

this is every gamers dream, congrats and hope god gives you and your family enough health for you to enjoy it for a long time!

[@LeesChannel]

My old comment somehow disappeared, but anyways, I just wanted to say thank you Coury for showing your beautiful setup!

[@joshuahelmeke]

15:20 Man, 10 years went by just like that! No worries though, Coury, all your hard work has definitely inspired our own gaming setups as well. What I experience daily, thanks to your and Mark’s efforts, is simply beyond my imagining. Thanks so much, bruh! 😎

[@paladin8669]

Such an awesome and well done tour. It was fun getting to see a behind the scenes on the making of these videos.

[@strzxgvnuvwvfld3597]

I know from watching the streams regularly that a lot of work gone into this and the end result was well worth it! I love all the detail. I've been watching MLiG since close to the beginning (at the time I was looking for some tips on how to use my new Framemeister), so I almost feel I've been on this journey with you. Definitely some inspiration to help with my own setup as well. Looking forward to Try's video!

[@brys.3131]

This was great. Awesome setup, nice and cozy! Also, your passion for great quality totally justifies the cool tech for sure! One of the things I've always loved most about your channel is the production quality and unique attention to style.

[@josephlbradford]

Awesome video! Thanks a ton for taking us on a tour of the culmination of years of tinkering to get a setup like you have. I feel like I spend most of my time doing what you did in always trying to optimize my setup and half the fun is seeing if I can even do it. Keep at it man and hope to be watching your videos well into your 80s and 90s!

[@joeykeilholz925]

The hard work on the video and overall is crazy. The passion is deeply inspiring

[@massvideogamer]

Perfect timing for my set up! I ran out of room un my game room for my 54 consoles all hooked up so we are building an addition and wanted tips to give the architect who is designing it. This video offers visuals for her which is perfect! Love your setup Coury and thanks for doing this!

[@mrfujisawa]

What an awesome video. I still remember when the first setup videos came out and it's amazing to see how far things have come.

[@ryanpc2]

This update was sorely needed!

[@ScottReviews]

That is a HELL of a gaming and studio tour! Looks amazing!

[@kainsenpai7172]

This was an amazing video! It was so nice seeing your set up, and the evolution from your previous set ups.

[@Deanster101]

The end scares the hell out of me, you’re coming back right? RIGHT!?

[@quintonbjohnson]

It's finally here! Thank you both so much for the work you do!!!!!

[@JaySharknado]

Can't wait - watching this after work!

[@DrClaw77]

Mention of Lakewood and the Chautauqua Mall will always make me smile.

[@johan.eriksson]

Thank you, Coury!

[@G23G_]

I know I'm a few weeks late to the party, but I'm so happy you released this! I've always enjoyed these videos from you, so it's nice to have another one to watch. Also, the timing of this is absolutely perfect because I just recently moved countries and shipped all of my stuff here. I've been having some trouble thinking of how to get things set up, so this has given me a ton of ideas. As always, thanks for your hard work with this channel! Also also, crying from 1:03:44 😭 lol

[@seanmcbay]

I’m so jealous of your set up. I just have a 42 inch C3 with a Switch, a hacked Wii U and a docked Analogue Pocket hooked up to it. Always on the lookout for a decent CRT.

[@GabeSwarr]

Whoa, thanks for the shout out Coury. This was one EPIC video--maybe the next one will be 2 hours a decade from now! :D

[@mylifeingaming]

[Try4ce] When my video is out, that will probably be about the length of the two tour videos together!

[@kendric_BUF]

love all the shelving and pegboards. its giving me inspiration for what i might do for when i build a gaming room setup

[@EposVox]

Incredible, beautiful setup. Thanks as always for sharing.

[@benjaminjackson9202]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG YESSSSSS

[@JimyCalzone]

That was awesome. I have to tear down my gameroom in the next couple of days myself. Maybe I can use this as a inspiration for the rebuild. Can’t wait to see Marc’s video.

[@csciacchitano]

Damn didn't expect to cry at the end

[@MarcoRetro316]

Love me a setup video. Great cinematography, editing and story telling as always, something to aspire to.

[@kytor]

What a great tour, thanks Coury. Who knew a video about shelves and rats nests of cables could keep me entertained for over an hour? I'm glad you said what you said in your closing thoughts. The hordes of stuff can at times feel like a colossal burden and it's nice to be able to walk away from it and go enjoy time with the people you love. It's the memories we make that brings personal value to the stuff, not the stuff itself.

[@picc9000]

Did not expect to get emotional at the end. "I love you all. RGB class dismissed."

[@DapperIndividual]

Ive been waiting years for this lets gooooooooo

[@samuraijaydee]

Fantastic video Coury. Thanks for making this. It's fun to see how others with these issues solve their problems haha :)

[@dcashley303]

Such a professional and extra setup, I love it! I'm the same with the tinkering, I'm particular about not just one thing but everything. It's all part of the fun. Unlike you I don't have this massive glorious wealth of space and equipment, make the most of it! 🎉

[@daver7178]

Great video and what an insane amount of tech in one room! The one piece I saw numerous times without mention was that sweet Raiders poster. Great stuff and appreciate all of your work throughout the years. Cheers!

[@danholo]

Love the music choices in the background. Mad Stalker Full Metal Force!

[@Beastlyxpanda]

I can’t believe this video is real. It’s finally here 🎉

[@adamw9764]

Love the setup, you gave me some many ideas I want to explore in my setup room now! Love the content!

[@ragkong]

Wonderful video as always from MLIG, keep up the good work.

[@briannorthFW]

Great Video, you give us so much to think about, mostly how creative you are solving the complexities yet make it look elegant

[@georgek2662]

Great cat, room, dog and happy kids.

[@arbelnox]

Hello fellow Ohioan! I really enjoyed the video. I also have a basement with drop ceilings and you have given me a lot of ideas on how to improve my setup. I always really hated them but now Im thinking they might be quite useful. My cable management is a mess right now. Also I was really thankful the previous homeowners water proofed my basement as well. I guess that can be insanely expensive so I am eterenally grateful.

[@DadLadsGaming]

Well that was certainly worth the wait..... absolutely top notch set up. Thanks for sharing Court......now we wait for a room tour from Try👍

[@ndpx673]

This is awesome! Im so impressed with this setup! I have no idea how you keep track of it all! 😂 I am super jealous!

[@KevInBuffalo]

Sick setup! Loved the Space Harrier cabinet cameo too.

[@tsunamirider9895]

Great video and great setup. Thanks for sharing!
