Gametech at BJ sells ps3 sg or my version? planning to buy ps3 from them next week..

Both also got.

M'sia set no discount, but might get cheaper offer on the game.

SG set is cheaper - for 160GB, around RM1150. I remember there are some 120GB set left.

GCToy - link and contact in first page, got selling the 120gb set for RM999 or the big re-furbished set for RM8xx.

Can i know which shop in penang sell malaysia set ps3 for a cheaper price???

I don't think got shops that sells PS3 on a much cheaper price here in Penang.

Usually the shop will give bundle price, like you buy a PS3, you the the game and/or another controller a bit cheaper. It is possible to get free HDMI cable too.

Just went to Prangin Yesterday.

Price Update from ACE:
1) Xbox360 Arcade - RM1100
2) Xbox360 Elite - RM1400

Price Update from GCTOY (G Electrical and Electronics):
1) PS Move set - RM300
2) PS3 160GB set - RM11xx

Both stocks are available but only got one or two units left.

There are a few new game shops open up in Prangin on the same floor with ACE. The two I remember are:
1) Godspeed
2) Game Galaxy - I think same boss with the one in BJ, as the signboard is the same.

There is also a shop open on the same spot as ACE previously in KOMTAR - 3rd floor, opposite the Police Station. I forget the name, but it might got some old stuffs there.

If anybody visited these shops before, let us know.

Here I also like to give some good comments to GCTOY (G Electrical and Electronics). The shop-keep that I and my friends deal with is very friendly and helpful. The resources there are much, much better than ACE too. You need anything, most probably you can find there, from rare console (PSOne Slim) to games. I like to say that the environment is more pleasant too (no smoke smell, no shouting and no shop-keep that just keep playing games and ignore potential customer..

So, visit there some time if you need anything. I am confident that you won't disappoint. I probably will get my Xbox360 and Wii there if the price is right.

(Disclaimer: This is not a paid advert. This is just a review after my visit to the shops. tongue.gif )

Yeah, agree with leyley.

Even if it is available in Penang game shops, it would be extremely rare, and that would mean more $$$$.

Nevertheless, the contact details are on the first page, you can call them up and ask.

GCTOY and Gametech BJ can also order for you if you are interested.

Yup,

From what I heard from ACE boss previously, small repair such as below can be done on site:
1) PSP Analog button replacement
2) PS2 lens change
3) NDS crack hinge repair
4) NDS dead pixel (minor)
5) Wii Error #002 issue
6) Wii and Xbox360 brick (might be able to reverse it, depends on situation)
7) PSOne lens change - will take time though

Nawar, which of your console got issue?

It's like that one haiz. sad.gif

ACE previously wan to do that to my Wii too. I end up updating it myself. I gotta say, it's very, very risky. One wrong move and your console is gone.

Anyway, why don't you try Gamemonster in QB and G Electronics in Prangin? The calling info is on first page.

Gamemonster's "technician" look to have decent skill and G Electronics say they repair stuff locally.

Ask them to give you a quote and let see how.

Sony Center actually selling it at RM298. But I am not sure whether it got strings attached or not.
