Located in a South China shopping mall, this shop doesnât merely âfixâ consoles. It fixes them so they can run pirated games.
Common throughout the country, the âChinese pirates hacking denâ, as website China Underground called it, specializes in flashing (modding) Xbox 360 and hacking consoles like the PlayStation 3 and the Wii.
Video game consoles are banned in China. However, modded machines and illegally pirated games are widely available on the countryâs gray market.
