CURRENT FAMOUS CONSOLES
from left: PS3, XBOX 360 and Nintendo Wii
When choosing a game console, make sure you know which one is suitable for you and you daily use. It is a waste if u buy a powerful console but hardly play or HARDCORE GAMERS play roughly on a weak console..
When choosing, u should 1st make a survey on all the places also find places or reliability.. Remembered sometimes good prices can be bad service or bad price but good service or BETTER.. WORST PRICE N SERVICE (looks at a bad game shop in One Utama)..
Make sure ur choose is rite when choosing a shop... n sometimes make sure ur shop dont cheat you as well..
Also make sure the console you buying can last.. example you bought a PS1 when PS2 is out for 1 year.. that is NOT HIGH RECOMMENDED !!
This are consoles that are still famous until today and still on sale. From left is Nintendo Entertainment System or NES, Super Nintendo Entertainment System or SNES, Sega Mega Drive, and Playstation 2 fat and Slim
Make sure you know when will the latest console be out.. also choose the ones that can LAST !! i meant like when you buy it gives you the best for 10 years or more.. till the new console is out or better still rivals the new console.
When you buy a console, make sure u know the generation and the Serial number or code.. bcoz each has a unique number and model. The latest are always the best so you wont get cheated on a previous model.
Nowdays if you console got stolen, you can give you serial number of your stolen console to sony and make the console unplayable to the criminals. Not sure about Xbox 360.. but make sure u know the model and generation.
When you buy ask for ORIGINAL PARTS or COMPONENTS.. dont buy cheap fake controllers or old outdated ones.. it will just ruin you day.. fake controllers tend to spoil fast and it is not durable. Also make sure u know how to differentiate between fake and real bcoz they can be sold in the same boxes.
Know your TV sets !! Why this is important ?? It is important.. bcoz like buying places in Asia, you should know that TV sets have different analog configuration
TV ANALOG SIGNALS
- NTSC
- PAL
- SECAM
The reason why this is important ?? to avoid ur TV from flickers or black and white when you are playing a game. If you have a new Tv around 2000 or above it would be ok n of course HD TV is created for them !!
Ask for promotions when you buy the console.. or better Limited Edition.. You may not know what cool items or free items or free games u get.. better still like special offer..
Try to avoid buying 2nd hand or un-trusted shops like Courts Mammoth or whatsoever similar... bcoz maybe it was spoiled once.. n then fixed it n no warranty n of course spoils faster.
Make sure the console you bought satisfy you. In terms of quality, disk space n etc..
That is all my guide.. i hope it helps.
