Korea

[3rdman]

Me or a friend from work will be heading to Korea for World Cup on business. I was hoping to spend some time looking for items to add to my collection...Is anybody here familiar with Korea? Where would be a good place to find Saturn titles there? Is Korea even into gaming?

"Is Korea even into gaming?"

As I understand it, online gaming is massive in Korea, and eatpenguin has mentioned here that Hyundai and Samsung released versions of the Genesis and SNES...

I haven't played it, but I heard that the DC version puts the PC version to shame.

i am speculating that koreans aren't into consoles so much. the ps2 was just released (officially) over there just recently.

if i remember correctly, msx and famicom were huge in korea...but that was nearly 8 years ago. havent been there ever since. i might go visit during the summer this year...if i can come up with enough money
