A light grey could be a cool contrast with the black, but then it just matches the wall.  I like the pop of color.\r\nYou could look at adding a small lip to the top side of each cube and mounting some LED lights behind it too\r\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Triangle-Bulbs-T93007-Waterproof-Flexible/dp/B005EHHLD8\r\n\r\nFor layout, have you thought about switching the location of the arcade cabinets and the sectional/TV area?  Not sure how the space works out, but could be an option.\r\n\r\nAnother option (that I use myself) is to break up the retro and current video game areas.  I have my (also free) CRT hooked up to non-HDMI consoles (it has component input, so it handles everything from Atari to Wii) in one area downstairs.  Then use my flat screen for the current gen consoles in another area.  This cuts into cabinet space though (which I don't have but am now interested after seeing this!).  SO, could get a better layout for console games at the expense of cabinet gaming -- depends on which will get more use I suppose.","subreddit_name":"gamecollecting","author":"DibsNoJoust"},{"body":"[LED strip lighting like this](http://www.amazon.com/Triangle-Bulbs-T93007-Waterproof-Flexible/dp/B005EHHLD8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1431674710\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=led+strip).
