Title: Adventures in Paris!
Post by: Sureshot on April 22, 2005, 05:00:33 PM
Finally got the Internet in my apartment (hooray!), and thought I'd post some pics of an Internet cafe-stroke-arcade-stroke-retro shop that I visited during my lack of connection.

These are taken on my Mobile so I apologise for the quality:

One of the sides of the big display cases

Mainly Mega Drive stuff

SNES stuff

Arcades (off because they were closing) & one of my pals

Nothing more retro than that unfortunately, was a nice surprise to see it in an Internet cafe though :)

I'm not salivating :P. Besides, you're the weirdo that takes pictures in gamestores ;).

It's a bit hard to see what it all is, but is any of this a good deal? 5 euros for a saturn game sounds pretty good, but if they're all common ones it's a lot less interesting.

For mobile phone photos, those turned out pretty good! It's cool that retrogaming is alive and well all over the world.

Thanks for sharing.
