Should I get a mini fridge or a full size for my basement?

We are finishing our basement and I can't decide if a refrigerator would work best, or if I should get a mini fridge instead. We have company over a lot, and part of our basement is going to be a gameroom, so people will be drinking a lot. A mini fridge would save space, but it won't hold as much, and when there are 5 or 10 people over, a case of beer isn't going to be enough, so I worry that a mini fridge won't hold enough. I was reading about mini fridges here ( http://www.mini-fridge.org/ ). I know there are some bigger ones, but I'm just not sure. At the same time, a full size fridge would work perfectly, but it would take up too much room. Do you think it would work if we got a full size fridge but we kept it off to the side in an unfinished area of the basement, perhaps by the furnace and stuff? It wouldn't be a fixture in our basement then, so it might look funny, but then it wouldn't take up any of the space in the gameroom. Thanks!
