5 Inspiring Gaming Setup Ideas

Whether you’re a casual button-masher or a die-hard gaming marathoner, one thing’s for sure: comfort and vibe are everything. A solid gaming setup isn’t just about high-spec consoles and flashy LEDs—it’s about the vibe. And what better way to build that perfect gaming zone than with a bean bag throne (or two) from Big Bertha Original?

Bean bags are making serious moves in the world of gaming. They’re comfy, versatile, and way cooler than a creaky desk chair. So whether you're decking out a gaming nook for your kids or crafting a proper adult battle station, here are five inspiring bean bag gaming setup ideas to get your head in the game:

1. The Ultimate Chill-Zone for Hardcore Gamers

If you’re someone who clocks serious hours in front of the screen, you’ll want maximum comfort and support. Enter: the Ultra Lux Gaming Bean Bag Chair.

With its high-back design and structured support, it’s basically the gaming chair’s cooler, comfier cousin. Add in a mini side table for your snacks, an LED strip for atmosphere, and noise-cancelling headphones—and boom, you’ve got the ultimate setup for long sessions on the sticks.

Style Tip: Choose darker tones like black or violet for that pro-gamer aesthetic, or go bold with a neon-coloured trim to match your RGB lighting.

2. A Family-Friendly Gaming Den

Kids love gaming just as much as adults (if not more), so why not create a space the whole family can enjoy? The Teens Bean Bag Armchair from Big Bertha Original is made just for newbie gamers—lightweight, wipe-clean, and just the right size for fun without fuss.

Pair a few of these with the Footstool Bean Bag (perfect for tired legs), a low gaming station, and you’ve got a lounge that’s as practical as it is playful.

Style Tip: Go for vibrant colours like lime green, electric blue, or pink to keep it fun and kid-approved. Bonus points for themed wall decals and a Mario Kart tournament bracket on the fridge.

3. The Modular Multiplayer Lounge

It’s social, it’s cosy, and you can move them around to suit your game night vibe—whether that’s FIFA with the crew or a sweaty Fortnite session with snacks on standby.

Style Tip: Keep it sleek with matching neutral colours (like taupe or navy), and add texture with soft throws or a rug to define the gaming zone.

4. The Minimalist Gamer’s Retreat
