Inside a Video Game Market in Pakistan (Modchips & Piracy Special)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ก.ค. 2024
- We explore Lahore's most famous video game market where you can find everything including cheap second-hand consoles, repairmen, PlayStation 5, pirated games, and modchips. I grew up modding my PS1, Xbox, Xbox 360, and PS3 so this market really took me back to those days.
Why Don't Indians Buy Gaming Consoles? (Video Game Market Tour 🇮🇳) • Why Don't Indians Buy ...
This console market is in the Palace Arcade under the Sunfort Hotel in Liberty Market, Lahore, Pakistan. There you'll find 10-12 stores selling video game consoles, video games, accessories, and console repairmen. They sell all consoles including Nintendo, Xbox, and PlayStation. Next-gen consoles are available there, but for marked-up prices due to the global semi-conductor shortage.
Xbox Series X price: Rs. 115,000 PKR.
Playstation 5 price: Rs. 160,000 PKR.
If you want a cheap console, then the Sunfort Hotel market is also the place for you. The full array of previous-generation gaming consoles with modchips or software mods are available. Xbox 360, PS3, and are all available there for cheap rates. Xbox 360 and PS3 start at around Rs. 18,000 PKR. Pirated games are extremely cheap at Rs. 150 PKR per game. PC games are Rs. 70 PKR per DVD (but just bargain the seller down on games on many DVDs).

That guy looks like PewDiePie on crack and he's making a gaming video too 🤣
Here's my Delhi video game market tour th-cam.com/video/wjLf9fDnG0I/w-d-xo.html
Notes: Thanks to Hugo for filming, I met him at the hotel I was staying at. I didn't film it, but tons of chai was offered. I bought God of War for my friend there and had to force the Game Store owner to take my money. And yup, before filming I did tell the stores I was making a video, so I wasn't just walking in and filming as it looks 😂

Back in 1998 my dad used to take me buying pirated games every week in these types of store. They were everywhere in Brazil. Really appreciate your video, it took me waaay back to a really really special place in time.
i remember buying gta sa but it had pepsi man moded and removed all girls in the game
I remember that too. When I was a kid, my great-grandmother gave me money every sunday to buy a new game for my PS2 at the fair. Good times.

You're prolly the first outsider that explored the gaming community in Pakistan. I'm so surprised to come across this video. We don't really get the support we deserve here. All our stuff comes from UAE. No official retailers. No public attention by gaming brands. We don't even have the Playstation App in this region :3. Regardless, thank you for this video.
I hope things can improve there one day! It's crazy you don't have the support the rest of the world does when you're all as technologically up-to-date as other leading countries.
Man Pakistan gaming community is impressive, heard they are the best in the world in Tekken 7
the reason you have no playstation app is because pakistan is the headquarters of terroristRus. fix your domestic problems first. rise up to the supressive powers that more destroy your country than help it.

This actually looks better than any gaming shop I've seen in the United States
I have to admit, these ''cheap'' shops look much better than the Western modern and minimalist shops which are supposed to look expensive and high quality.. There's something special about seeing so many colorful items on display, such as consoles, controllers, games, headphones etc. it awakes my inner child and the desire to have all of it, i really wanna buy something there.. If anything, it makes me curious and want to check everything, especially because it seems affordable..
The modern Western shops i had in mind usually have only few items on display, 2-3 controllers, 2-3 headphones, too much space between the items, everything is empty, white and bland, too smooth and minimal.. Not many options to choose from, and you can immediately tell it's expensive.. Basically you're just paying for the glossy furniture in the shop, clean floors and perfume.. And the seller is usually a woman with long plastic nails, which you also pay for.. And the worst part is, most of those expensive items are the same quality as the cheap ones in the video, ordered from Asia for example and double the price..
@@twentytwo138 yeah
But they are expansive
@evil kava no they're not

Huh you got that right I used to play pirated games in my childhood too now stop because it's not ethical 😅
@@PlayAndroidGames2 nice man. Here in the UK I've only really pirated pc games but I buy all my games for PS4 and now ps5
As long as these industries do not scale up the prices for South Asian countries, piracy will keep ruling. Can you imagine the value of $60 in wests than in South yet these companies still complain about piracy which they could have solved it very easily with a small scaling.
@@PlayAndroidGames2 no one cares about ethics in this case, these are huge multimillion dollar gaming companies, they're greedy enough to just convert dollars to rupees (sometimes more) and charge us exorbitant rates for games. I only buy games on Steam sales, only then they are somewhat affordable.
@Cherian Philip Then buy from steam
I live in the UK, this video brings me back to my childhood in the early 2000’s when we’d visit Lahore and come back with hundreds of games for my PS2
I used to pest my father and he takes me to the shop with some conditions like only two game CD's then once we reach the store I see lot of new games like god of war 2, God hand, Shadows of the Colossus etc and I instantly start to cry for them and he buys me anyways after a couple of shout's lol. Good times.

@@DemonPrinceofHell just like how your brain haves no place in your body?
Reminds of Mexico. Back when I was a kid, piracy was the only way to afford games. In the long run these kids become future adults that can afford your products. Now I buy everything original and rebuy games that rerelease on the new platforms.

well, it is the headquarters of terroristRus, so ofcourse its talked negatively of it. if even half of their terrorist budget went into infrastructure and education, it could have been on the same level as india right now, but this market represents the poverty there is there. most people cannot afford the stuff there, unless its through illegal ways like this.

Greetings from Palestine to my Pakistani brothers and sisters 🇵🇸🇵🇰
God bless you brother!
@@tamanamaher8566 thank u and God bless you too
Watching this took me back to my childhood visiting my family in Syria. Underground repair markets, paying pennies for Sonic Adventure DX and Red Alert 3, spending all day in the smoke-filled net café. My cousin opened an internet café called Troy before the war, I wish I had gotten the chance to see it in person. Thanks for the video!
how does internet works in syria ? really curious...
Sounds like very interesting story.
@@TheAmoscokkie ... it's the internet
@@TheAmoscokkie like normal?....
I was lucky enough to visit Syria twice many years ago. Beautiful country and lovely people
Peopled get shocked a Pathan speak in foreign accent until they realize Karl is from New Zealand. :)
I really enjoyed this video, it made me remember the nostalgia from when i used to go to raipur from dhamtari i always visited a game shop and whenever i entered there it was like a dream world ...
Games and consoles and controllers and everything a gamer wants will smack you wherever you lay your eyes on, it felt soo good 😍😍😍.
We have the same stores like that too in Indonesia. I remember when I was younger and my dad finally let me buy some ps3 games and I excitedly jogged along in between stores to see all the cool games. Moved on to PC ever since but I'll always remember good ol' console days.
Indonesia thrives on piracy. Indian here btw
@@vivekjk6729 india also thrives on piracy
Ngl the geniune excitement from Karl is so freaking heart warming
Sony: "Last of Us is PS exclusive."
Karl: "Last of Us works on pc??"
Shopkeeper: "YES."
I was shocked to see The Last of US on PC too. lol. But then I remembered that it can run on RPCS3 emulator on PC. I think the store keeper (seller) had the last laugh there. lol
Probably comes with PS3 emulater on the disc as most pirate games do online 😇
@@schntgaispock6489 I bet its some generic game being sold as "last of us"
@@rameenaayan3248 we've been there u and me ...if u know what I mean
@@rameenaayan3248 probably gta san andreas with joels model modded in lmao
Ye kaam toh karenge na??
Ha.
Karl: Thike, nahi chahiye ji.
lmfao
Lolz
Underrated

Love how you can code switch and easily communicate with the locals likes you've lived their you're whole life.
India in my duas/prayers during this troubling time. I hope any Indians reading this are ok and that if your loved ones have been infected that InshAllah they recover quickly. It's been heartbreaking seeing the images on TV, please stay inside if you can and take care. Aap ne ghabrana nahi hai . 🇵🇰 ❤ 🇮🇳

Im a simple man nothing fascinates me but when it comes to gaming i can't control myself.
Great background music and great editing as well. I really liked this vedio
Man, I never knew you were such a gamer! I love it!
I love how he immersed himself into Pakistani and Indian culture.
We are almost same bro.
So it's not that difficult for him
@MOVIES KHAZANA Yeah Pakistan has more terrorists and India has more scammers. Let's settle at that..

Same for u
Such a great video. Thank You. Liked, and Shared.
on one side, you help catching a movie pirate, and showing as well as encouraging pirated games on the other hand... Great work
That 80's disco vibes gives me chills. It completes this video on game stores.
It would be amazing if you could meet Arslan Ash and give us some insight into the gaming scene in Pakistan!
I'm so glad you actually appreciated the last of us part 2 as much as I felt. The hate that game is getting is not deserved, it's a masterpiece.
Love these video game videos karl. Thanks for bringing this to everyone!
Anyone who has lived in Asia - Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines etc is very familiar with these shops haha.
Chipped PSP, DS, Xboxes all the way.
The dude smoking in his shop not giving a f about the customers or that he's being recorded while doing so! Hahaha Real OG right there
I hate these kind of shop keepers smoking on your face
Nothing to be proud of, is it?
OG of pissing off new customers. Those guys go out of business and complain how it's the markets fault
@@adnanmustafa5923 don't be a Karen son! Grow up and be a man! His shop, his rules!
@@besharet and dudes like you piss in your pants when you come across a troublesome situation! What is wrong with you kids these days? Why are you all a bunch of pussies?!
Just saw this video... Really appreciated... Thanks for coming to Pakistan ❤️
