The success of “Super Mario Bros.” in cinemas and other game adaptations in recent times has encouraged game fans to take the console out of the closet or look for somewhere to play video games.
In the capital of São Paulo, burger restaurants and themed bars offer consoles, from the old Atari to the latest PlayStation, for people to have fun while eating. The titles are also varied and nostalgic fans can relive classics such as “Mortal Kombat” and “Street Fighter”.
