How do you organize all your video game stuff?
I have:
360 + controller + guitar
PS3 + controller + media remote
Wii + 2 controllers + gun attachment
PS2 + 2 guitars + 2 controllers
XBOX + 3 controllers
And the games, of course. Is there something that attaches to the wall that would help with all the controllers and accesories, including the guitars?

Surely you don't use all of those at once. I keep one of each controller for the systems I'm using the most on the coffee table. Everything else goes in one of these in the closet.
So right now I have a 360 pad and a Wiimote/Nunchuck on the table. Headsets, extra controllers, guitars and whatnot go in the closet until I'm ready for them.
Or you could get a coffee table that has a bunch of storage space. I used to use a nice looking trunk as a coffee table which gave me all kinds of room for game stuff.

The only systems I have connected right now are the 360 and PS3. I keep a couple controllers in the entertainment center for my wife and I, as well as a couple games that we're currently playing. The rest of the games are in another room on one of my media shelves.
The more important question is how to store all the plastic instruments that are cluttering up everyone's living space. I have a small closet that I keep everything in. Drums go on the floor, with the guitars attached to the wall via strings. The only guitar I don't hang is the LP, due to the detachable neck. I don't want to have the body pulling down and not keeping that connection tight.

Wow, I thought I had a lot of guitars at 3 but I count at least 6 in that pic, I feel better now 
The problem is that there's only one HDTV in the house (in my room) and I'm the only one that plays video games. And the room's not that big.
I saw a rack in a magazine once where you could hook up your controllers to the wall. Haven't been able to find it

1 Rock Band Fender
1 GH3 Les Paul (on the shelf)
2 GH2 XPlorers
1 GH2 SG

I keep the PS2 stuff in another closet, as they're hardly ever used.
