Where to Buy Video Games in Hong Kong

When travelers visiting Hong Kong, most start thinking about what to buy before arriving in the city. Shopping is everywhere in Hong Kong , and many times the price of what you want is cheaper here than in their home country.

One of the most common questions I see on the internet about shopping in Hong Kong is " Where can I buy video games in Hong Kong? " This is a very good question, and I will explain why. 

If you've ever been to Hong Kong, you know, no stores like Wal -Mart or Game stop that have large screens of video games for sale. And if you visit a large shopping center, as City plaza, Pacific Place, Times Square and you probably will not find a game store either. You may get lucky and find games in a place likes Toys R Us, but will be sold at full price.

After searching for a while, visitors may wonder how a city famous for cheap electronics has very few places to buy video games. Even street markets do not sell video games. 

If you are looking to buy video games, councils , peripherals and electronic equipment in Hong Kong , you want to visit Wan Chair district of Hong Kong Island . A shopping center called the East Mall 188 here.

188 East Mall is a center dedicated to video games , movies, anime , toys , electronics, and all sorts of other things.

The mall itself is quite small compared to other malls in Hong Kong. The hallways are narrow and the shops are crammed into the limited space inside. Stores consist of owners of independent shops selling mostly one element mentioned above. The prices at these stores are cheaper than what you find in the chain stores like Broadway and electronic Fatale. Games and the prices are cheaper here than it is in Hong Kong stores that sell video games. 

There are some things you need to know when buying video games in Hong Kong. And like most of the shop owners in the Eastern mall 188 not speak English, you will need to know these things before you leave.

A. Some game councils have locks on your region. In other words, you cannot play on a council Asia North America or European games. These councils : Nintendo Wii, Nintendo 3D, and Xbox 360.

Two. Game councils without locks in the region following : PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation Portable, Nintendo DS. You can play a game for these councils, no matter where it was made or if the council is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwrfe8SzD6A

Three. Get the Oriental 188 Shopping Centre can be a bit difficult because the MT does not stop near this mall. The best way to get there is by bus. Looking for a bus that stops at 298 Hennessey Road (Kong Sang Hong Building) or Wan Chair Road and Heard Street.

April. Commercial computer center, called 298 Computer Zone, is located in the same building as the East Mall 188. If you are looking for computer products, give 298 Computer Eye Zone. You do not have to go far at all.

May. This mall is full of young weekends. Go to 188 on a weekday to avoid the crowds .
