Inside a Video Game Market in Pakistan (Modchips & Piracy Special)



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.

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).

  1. That guy looks like PewDiePie and he's making a gaming video too 🤣
    Here's my Delhi video game market tour https://youtu.be/wjLf9fDnG0I
    Notes: 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 😂

  2. Everyone saying you cant get Last of Us on PC, yes you can via emulators. Do a Youtube search for 'Last of us PC'. What Karl got was probably an emulator and game packed as a standalone install

  3. I always find it amazing how they just come out and say that their stuff is pirated or modded/hacked. It's a good thing Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo et al don't bother coming after them! 😅

  4. I haven't been to a gamestore since the pandemic hit last year. Restrictions have become tighter here in the Philippines again and it's hard to secure a PS5 online. So nice to see stores open there in Pakistan.
