Hi all,

Maybe this had been discussed. If this is the case please guide me to the right place.

I am now looking to buy both the NDSL and PSP Slim & Lite in Penang. I had asked a few shops in Tesco Penang and Bukit Jambul (BJ) Complex. The price they offer me is not very pretty compare to what I saw here. (Eg: Rm980 for PSP Slim & Lite (4gb) and RM780 for NDSL (1gb) with everything in it). My budget is less than RM1500. Any good recommendation?

Thank you in advance and looking forward for reply. nod.gif

Hi,my suggestion is go to ACE Electronic located in Perangin Mall third floor.Their PSP is sell at RM880.So,I think their price is most reasonable compare to other places.

Please,dont buy your PSP or anything from the game shop that located at Megamall,Perai.I dont want to mention the name though,but dont buy at there.Last time I go there,I ask them the price for PSP.You know,their PSP is RM1000 with only 2GB memory stick for piano Black.If you choose other color like felicia blue or Ceramic white,they will charge you another RM30 . They say because those color are limitted edition.
Their customers major is the parent who want to buy game system for their kids.

So, dont buy at there,they are vampire and shark.Buy from ACE,if can,you can call AH Hin,04-2613481.

really regret buying my psp from mario...soli for those mario shop fans,but 4 me,it is likely very dissapointed...
1st,although mario has provided d cheapest price 4 d console at penang,but overall,after i had done d survey,i discover that d price they provide not special oso.y?d reason is d thing they gv is lesses then others...others give av cable(RM30),crystal case(RM19.9) and also usb cable,so it is possible that their price wil b higher.but although mario give d accessories is oso not bad,but when i open up to test d remote earphone,directly,it cannot function!!!(WTH).obviously it is very clear that those remote is quite not so useful as others mention.

2nd,after purchasing fr them,in d 3rd day d console ade facing problem!major is not any song can be transfer in my console!!and d battery they give only can withstand 3hour++(normal 5-6 hour v ful power).so,think of it,y cant d console b perfect?y cant they juz provide use d best package to advoid those unnessasary problem?

3rd,i 2day go their shop to ask for their help.u noe what?they give me unculculated reason for those problem that occur.yet,they stil mention that they wont gv us pirated battery and their console is imposible got problem..so they blame that is my song quality make it cant b open in d console..what they say is d song cant open cause it not fix d kbps,format,codec,and file size requirement.>>>????what is that?not all mp3 format file can open in console ma?got such thing?yet,after they try puting those song inside my console fr their pc,it stil cant b work.now i ask them again,then they said they oso dono,is hard to explain to me...hmm,ok,u dono how come i noe??weird....

4nd,after non-settle al those problem,i had to heard they nonsense excuse n take b my console try myself.but,when i called them to clean n fix b it to d crystal case,they said that d shop don hv any cloth,so ask me do by myself,and they juz buzy chit-chat beside...i'm on fire!!!fire in d hole!!!

finally,i went b without solving d problem and wasting my 2hour thr...
promise,i wont buy anymore console fr there!!!ever and after!!!

seriously,all the original games that sell in penang is way too overprice,
I never see a PS3 game sell in penang is selling RM150 OR rm160

most the price is RM199 ,RM269,RM299.They thought all the PS3 gamer in penang here are idiot.In prai megamall(i dont want to mention which shop but their worker wearing unifrom one),i saw their Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 selling at RM359,VERY VERY CHEAP rclxms.gif

Penang gameshop cant move any further anymore,they just selling the pirated PS2 game,and some stupid china made PS2 and PSP accesories which is not recognized officially by Sony or Microsoft.

The shop I think selling the most reasonable price is some shop located is prangin mall and 1-stop only.

other place their shop or stall is just wait to be bankrupt only.

BTW,i think ilikepanadol is the best dealer in penang.good job

We have to "thank" to our penang gameshop and stall actually,they simply put the price of the game up to RM259,RM279,and RM299 .Those penangties majority of them that dint do much survey or maybe got no idea about LYN here or KL gameshop will have a wrong perception that


"wow,PS3 games is really so expensive one,almost RM300 for a game,how to play?"

If there is someone sell the PS3 game from arround RM80-to maybe RM180(For new game maybe),i think penang people might think about PS3 since RM80-RM180 for most people is still payable if compare to RM300.Maybe not that much of them will buy RM180 for the new game(but I think definately still got quite number of them)

In contrast, I think the RM80-RM100 for older title like Devil May Cry 4,LBP,or MGS 4 definately sure got quite many penang people will buy it.
Well,maybe RM80-RM100 for a game is also consider not cheap but it is also consider not SUPER expensive right?Most people still can pay

eg..Just like speedy video,they sell original disc but there are still alot of penang people visit there and buy original disc from them.

Same thing,if a PS3 title selling RM299,I am sure that think KL people will not also willing to buy it,apatah lagi orang PENANG?

Thats why most of them will go for Modded Xbox 360 because this is the only choice for them.

Thanks to our penang shop and stall for selling RM299 for a game like Tekken 6 and PES 2010,and even RM269 for MGS4!!

Am I right?pls correct me if I am wrong smile.gif
