There's a little place called Yongsan you might want to check out. Wink

Seriously...anything and everything you could ever want in regards to games, PCs and electronics can be found in that neighborhood. That is, unless you're one of the lonely few people in this country that uses a Mac.

The I'Park mall above Yongsan station is a good place to start. Exit the station, look for the cellphone/camera booths and head up to the 6th/7th floors.

If you're feeling adventurous, ext out of Sinyongsan station and head towards the electronics market. It's tougher to navigate around there, but you can usually find more variety and bargains.

the basement of the nanjin arcade or the basement of the building between nanjin and the seon-in plaza. All you could ever hope to find for games and game accessories.

Walk out of the yongsan station.
turn right.
Walk to the end of the plaza. You should be looking over the rail yard.
(If you see the street and e-mart sign you went the wrong way. Turn around and walk to the other side.)
You should see a big blue building. that is the terminal building.
to the right of that you will see a building with a big gigabyte sign on it. That is the Seon-in plaza.
If you look to your immediate right you will see the entrance to the pedway across the rail yard. Walk through it to the blue building.
YOu will enter on the 3rd floor.
Go down to the 1st floor and walk out the door. *if you are there on a weekend you will see lots of vendors with DVDs, toys and stuff.
When you get outside you will see a parking lot. On the other side of that parking lot is the nanjin arcade.
there are 2 basement accesses. the 1st is phones and phone accessories.
the 2nd one (closer to the crosswalk) is the 1st place to look for your game stuff.
If you don't find what you want there, cross the street where you entered and under that building you will find more stuff.

Hope that helps.
