A gaming console (10) that retains gaming devices in a cockpit-like arrangement for enhancing the experience of home video game playing. The gaming console includes a seat (26) for the game player and armrests (28) for the game player's arms. Each armrest is equipped with a device retainer (32) that provides a sturdy mount for gaming devices. A game player can place the gaming console in an existing chair, thereby permitting the game player to sit on the seat of the gaming console at an elevation suitable for home video game playing. By grasping the gaming devices mounted on the device retainer, the game player can play the home video game. The armrests (28) are tilted inward, providing the effect of being surrounded by a control panel. The gaming console is modular in that additional components can be added to the gaming console without changing the basic structure of the gaming console. Additional components include a laptop table (59), a mouse pad (70), a storage compartment (72) and a sound system (78). |
