My modded console and PC setup with everything interconnected. Too much clutter? (lemmy.ca)

It has two screens with and I can toggle between the inputs of my modded consoles (PS2, PS3, PS4, original Xbox, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii), my ThinkPad, and my desktop computer below my desk. When something is being displayed on my smaller screen it's passed through my PSVR processing unit so I can view whatever the output is in VR.

Everything is connected to a passive audio mixer.

My two computers are connected to a USB switch so that I can swap between the keyboard and mouse back and forth without relying on software.

I feel like it's pretty functional but I am wondering if it's a bit too cluttered.

Edit: The Xbox 360 Kinect can be used for its intended purpose but I can also plug it into my PC and use gestures for mouse movement.

Is this in a bedroom? Get some under-the-bed bins to put everything in that isn't plugged into the wall or necessary for the operation of your computer. If it's not in a bedroom, you have space for more storage furniture, I can guarantee it, so get some.

The top shelf can then be used to display choice things or for plants or books, which will look way less cluttered.

It is in a living room but I might be able to get some storage units to put things underneath the desk. I feel like having the upper area clear would definitely help.
