The “Gaming Experience” takes place this weekend in Estoril. For two days, the public will be able to learn about the evolution of video games and also try playing on consoles and machines.
Through consoles and machines, we take a journey through the history of video games. From the 70s to today.
“Video games reflect the culture and time in which we live. If, for example, in the 80s we lived a lot with spaceships, today we live in a world of meta verse, of virtual reality, something separate from the worlds that we don’t yet know and that we are discovering in the meta verse”, says Mário Tavares from the organization.
Anyone who visits the event can also try playing. Mário explains what can be found:
“We have original arcade machines, original pinball machines from the 70s from the Williams brand, which is very old and no longer exists. We have it from ‘Pong’, going through the four decades of the history of video games on game consoles: the Sega Saturn , the Sega Mega Drive and then we do a legacy Playstation”.
There are two days dedicated to gaming, but there is also a cosplay contest. Just go to the Estoril parish council building until Sunday.
