I've got a setup that I feel is a reasonable compromise. All of my systems are in a cabinet under the TV, with most of them plugged into a power bar, but I only have one of the HDMI ones connected at a time, and the others are hooked up through a 3-way composite switch that they share with the DVD player. I don't have controllers hooked up, though, so those have to be dug out if I want to use a system. Other than that, though, it's a simple matter of swapping the HDMI cable around or selecting the input on the composite switch, which is pretty readily accessible.
That's pretty much exactly how mine is set up. I have two switch-boxes - one for HDMI, one for the composite cables. I don't consider that additional setup, because it just means I have to push a button on the box at the same time I'm turning one of the consoles on.

My controllers are in a couple of those hanging-shoe-storage thingies on the back of the door and in the closet.

EDIT: These thingies:
