      Oh yes! Loving the atmosphere of this city. Would definitely recommend going here :D
      The SFC game was a really nice surprise actually. I know Europe can be a hit or miss for retro games but I'm glad I found some cool stuff after all :) Thanks man!

    Hi Adam, Glad to see you continuing on with more Portugal content...and a really interesting one nonetheless. I hardly ever see much videos regarding game searching especially with Japanese titles in Portugal. So this will be exciting to see and educational as well due that I've rarely (if not ever) seen anything like it before from this part of Europe.
    Thank you for sharing this with us Adam. This really made my day. 8^)

      No, I dont think I've ever seen Retro Games from Portugal in a video.
      I had a great time running around stores in Lisbon to make these 2 videos.
      Happy to hear that, man! :)

      Right on, Aaron :D Me too. Always looking up places in every new city I visit!
      Yea I thought so. I saw some older pictures of the store and realized that the game was still there 2 years ago lol. So that says it all then.
      Glad you liked it, thanks man! Unfortunately not much Neo Geo going on. But that was to be expected. However, I did find an arcade stick (NG CD) in the last Portugal video. Overpriced of course.

    The scarcity of Retro Games in Portugal makes the hunt there as a tourist even more enjoyable if you can find something nice. It's definitely more of a importers market there than it is a buyers market.

    Uodate on what I said in the other Portuguese game hunt video: I think it first strated with the Master System that console gaming started to get big in Portugal. The Switch and PS4 are doing very well. Idk about the Xbox systems because most people I met in Portugal don't have any of them. The PSP and Vita were big there too. Also, If a game is rated Pegi 4 or 6 instead of 3 or 7, that means it's a Portuguese copy of the game. So you saw a lot of games that weren't Portuguese copies and were from other places in Europe. I think console gaming got big here because the games of licensed franchises starting booming. Portuguese people love Dragon Ball, Beyblade, Jewel Pets, and more popular cartoon/anime more than North America does.

    • @RetroMoments
      @RetroMoments  4 года назад

      Thats for the info, my friend. Interesting to hear that a lot of the games are from other places in Europe.
      So basically, ever since PS1 came out, its been dominating the console market up in Portugal until now!?

      Otherwise I just try searching "retro games" on Google Maps in different cities. Usually works pretty good in Europe.
      For Asia, the best is to search in their own language or ask people who live there.
