       There's a small retro exhibit at a nearby mall. Not the most exciting of places, but it does cover a broad audience.But... sigh.At least put a piece of paper next to the items with their names/descriptions. When interactive, add some instructions."Oh my $DEITY! Old games looked so bad!"Don't put old systems on display using LCDs. Their scalers are terrible. No one experienced such an awful image quality back in the day, not even RF with the cheapest of TVs.#retro #retrogaming #lisbon

       There was a TurboGrafx-16 there running "Blazing Lazers" (1989), also called "GunHed" in Japan.The TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine is very rare in Portugal. Collectors may have them now, but it was unheard of back in the day.Blazing Lazers is a good looking game, with a very arcade-like experience (in gameplay and smoothness).I could've spent a while playing it, but walked away after a minute due to the terrible LCDs.I didn't see anyone else playing it. What a shame.#retrogaming #retro #lisbon
