A BERLIN TREAT
Hi Retro Gamer,
After reading about the excellent Leicester games museum piece, which I really need to get to, I thought I would share a tip for any travellers going to Berlin regarding the fantastic Computer Spiele Museum (Computer Games Museum). It’s surprisingly large with an excellent collection, including bedroom setups in Seventies, Eighties and Nineties attire. The highlight though is the East Germany-only games console (picture attached) created from a soap dish for the controller and a margarine tub for the console. They have also had Hideo Kojima, John Romero and Steve Wozniak visit! It’s definitely worth a few hours if you visit Berlin. Keep up the good work
