La Rochelle: If you want to try out old consoles or arcade games, it's your turn!

The La Rochelle Vintage and Retro Gaming Show will delight fans of old video games and vintage culture in all its forms until Sunday, May 4.
Vintage is made to never go out of style... and it applies to the world of gamers. More than ever, the prehistory of computer games is popular, to the point that people are now snapping up consoles, cartridges, and game cassettes from the pioneers of this universe. If you're part of this community, the La Rochelle Vintage and Retro Gaming Show is for you. A large space will allow you to test the first versions of iconic games such as Street Fighter or Final Fantasy on vintage consoles (Sega, Nintendo, etc.).

For those who aren't drawn to games, vintage culture is available here in several worlds, from second-hand goods to antique toys, home decor, and vinyl records. It's up to you to play or hunt.
