    Help needed: Hong Kong retro game shops

    Anyone know any decent shops for retro games in Hong Kong? My girlfriend is flying over soon to see her family. I'm particularly interested in shops specialising in:
    Neo Geo Aes,
    PC Engine,
    Famicom.

    It's my birthday whilst she's out there so she promised to bring me a ****load of stuff back!

    I don't know of anywhere, but you should watch out for pirated stuff its everywhere apparently. (N64 games are sold on CD-Rs usually)

      Ask a cab driver to take you to "Sham Shui Po"

      Freakin' awesome place for games. Make sure you have a few days spare though! You could quite easily lose yourself amongst the hussle and bussle.

      EDIT:
      Wait, you mean you're not going, and it's the missus doing the games shopping?

      Craziest idea I've ever heard, the place is so confusing I doubt you'll have much luck unless you're there in person (and can discern between whether you want to buy a particular bootleg item or not, there is a lot of underground stuff around).

      Goodluck!

        I'm not allowed to go, her parents would disown her if they found out she was dating an Englishman!

        She's a bright girl and she knows what's what (probably because i bore her senseless with my addiction!) Thanks for the tip, I'll point her there. I quite like the idea of getting a load of Famicom multicarts.
