Haha, the thread chain above is getting a bit out of control. smile.gif

Anyway, I am not sure which Aunty you are talking about.

When I bought my Wii in ACE, there is one aunty that deal with me. Judging by the looks, she is either the "senior shopkeep" or the boss lady.

Well, I am not sure it's the aunty is the same as the one above.

Hi Dark NT,

Do you know the shopkeep / boss for Game Mart well?

If that is the case, can you ask them, on behalf of Gamers in Penang, to open a forum here? I am pretty sure that all of us will support them.

Thank you.

hey guys, where to buy NDS games in penang huh?

You can buy in almost all the console shops in Penang. It's just that whether the price, the package and the warranty will differ.

Also, you might want to wait for the NDSi.

What is Wii's most popular game or so called best?
*
The Super Smash Bros Brawl always listed as number 1 game for Wii.

You can try Zelda - Twilight princess too.

For me, I am currently playing Tales of Symphonia & Harvest Moon - Tree of Tranquility.

Hi guys, Im looking for good deal on PS3 in Penang. Anybody know where can I find a reasonable price package from any of the gameshop?

Thanks.

Hi,

Just my own humble opinion, I think the best offer for a PS3 Malaysia set in Penang currently is the one from Sony Center....RM1599 for the console, or RM1780 for an extra set of controller OR Little Big Planet.

There is another option but I kind of forget the price and what they offer already.

If you want Asia set, a while ago I asked ACE and they got this RM1500 set plus a game. I did not asked in detail..Sorry about that.

PS1, PS2 quite easy to get.
Old XBox still available but need to search a bit.
Gamecube and Dreamcast really hard to find.
Other older stuff....forget about it in Penang.

Hi
my US version Wii (with H/w modded) was accidentally upgraded to FW 3.4U and caused some of my ahem games cannot be played. Now, i need to find some reliable game shops in penang to downgrade the FW to 3.2 (i tried to downgrade it myself but the process is very complicated) and also need to find help to install HomeBrew Channel in my Wii. May i know which reliable game shop in penang that can do the above two tasks with reasonable fees ? thx

Just PM you. Hope it helps.

You know PS1 still can get new one from shop? roughly costing how much? someone pm me biggrin.gif
I got a bunch load of PS1 CDs.. but my PS2 have no backwards compability

Hi Tamiya,

I think if you want the old big PS1, it will be quite hard to get.

If you want the PSOne (the small one), Mario Electronics and Gamemaster should have a few left. It is definitely not hard to get.

I wouldn't say "affordable", because PSP2000 nowadays the price quite fixed.

You can try this game shop in BJ first floor beside Kamdar (not ground floor). I forget the name, but the price is quite OK....less than RM800 for a new one. You have to be quick though, as there are not much stock left currently.

If you want re-condition set, it will cost a bit cheaper, and you can get a good selection of those in Prangin - Games Tower, Ace etc etc.

Hope this helps smile.gif

Very Very good "Black Market" connection. LoL.

There are tons of it in Penang, and most of them offers close to zero genuine stuff  sigh.......

You can try start up one that sells ori stuff and rent ori games, at least ppl like me will be very happy biggrin.gif.
*
Yeah, that is What I am thinking too - selling original stuff and nothing else. Something like EB Games / Game Stop.

However, it doesn't really seems viable for now. shakehead.gif

Other Low Yat ppl got any recommendations?

really O_o

price wise = cheaper than other shop with good service XD

do a buy used PS3 game  == like u guys buy thier Used PS3 games like .. RM 100 and then u sell to other ppl for RM 110 ~ 130 =x

Offer a good repair price biggrin.gif

hehe hope ur friend can open the shop soon happy.gif .. and do inform us about the shop status and location when the shop open XD
*
Yup, Penang people here will always support if the service is what we expected.

1) Price - Agreed with fatenagisa, if the price is good (or even fair), we will not mind. Of course, we don't want and don't like LSLY seller / shop keep that think buyer are stupid or can easily be cheated.

2) Knowledge - Yes, it is important too. We don't want "I dunno" for all the questions we asked. We also hope that the thing we sent to repair can be fixed within a given time of period (1 day, 1 week, 1 month etc).

3) I saw in Aus and US that they have buy back options. This would be a good thing to do. You take back buyer's old console and discount some money from the new console they want to buy.

4) Monthly promotion - don't have to be fancy, just good offer will do.

Hope this helps.
