Video Description
I visited a video game shop in India that started in the 80s. Watch as we tour Babu's Video Games and go to his workshop to see where he mods and repairs consoles. He also shows us his massive retro gaming collection, including many rare retro games from Nintendo's Game & Watch, NES, SNES, and N64 systems. It brought back a lot of nostalgia from my childhood as a Super Nintendo gamer! I also decided to get back into the Nintendo ecosystem after hearing so many people rave about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017). And I wanted to try all the other Nintendo-exclusive games I missed over the years like Metroid Prime Remastered. So at the end of the video, I bought a Nintendo Switch OLED. Now I'm ready for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (2023)! Update: I revisited Babu and went deeper into his story and collection https://youtu.be/0chGU7lG6J8. Update: How's the Nintendo Switch been? I fell in love again with handheld gaming! I can game anywhere while travelling and catch up on many older games I missed. It's been an excellent addition to my Xbox Series X and PS5. I'm looking at the Steam Deck next. Babu's Video Games (बाबू वीडियो गेम्स) is located in the beautiful and chilled-out city of Pune, India. Pune is a sprawling city in the western state of Maharashtra, known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and beautiful architecture. It is also a hub of education and technology, making it a popular destination for students and professionals. 🇮🇳 Delhi video game market tour https://youtu.be/wjLf9fDnG0I. 🇵🇰 Lahore video game market tour https://youtu.be/KMBrShV-LWI.
