The Museu del Videojoc de Catalunya (MUVIC) is a cultural and museum project without its own museum premises, dedicated to preserving, studying and sharing video game history. Founded in Catalonia, the project takes a global view of video games and shares its collection through temporary and travelling exhibitions.
To preserve, study and share the international history of video games by conserving original systems and placing them in their historical, technological and cultural context, through a museum project founded in Catalonia with an international outlook.
To become a leading resource in Catalonia for studying, preserving and sharing the international history of video games, bringing together collecting, research, exhibitions and education, and contributing to a rigorous understanding of video games as a cultural, technological and social phenomenon.
MUVIC does not currently have its own museum premises. SuperBoniato Store provides us with an ongoing exhibition area inside its shop, at Carrer Pérez Galdós, 45, Barcelona.
This area serves as an ongoing meeting point for the project, allowing us to display a selection of the MUVIC collection throughout the year and develop exhibitions that share video game history.
Exhibitions change approximately every two to three months and include contextual materials such as advertisements, explanatory texts, videos and relevant objects to explore video games as a cultural, technological and social phenomenon.
Admission to the exhibition area is free, and you can visit during SuperBoniato Store's opening hours.
Before you visit: this is not a standalone museum and the full collection is not on display. It is a small exhibition area inside the shop, presenting a changing themed selection from the collection.

Objects, systems and materials that join the project thanks to the generosity of collectors, individuals and partners.
MUVIC has received a Football I from the Mattel Electronics series, donated by Miguel Gallego. It is one of the handheld electronic games produced between 1976 and 1978.
It all began with the iconic Auto Race, but Mattel quickly expanded the range with numerous models, many based on different sports.
These devices represent the early beginnings of the handheld electronic game, many years before Nintendo's Game & Watch series and the later Game Boy. They hold a significant place in the history of video games and electronic entertainment.

There are several ways to support the museum project:
Share your experience of MUVIC exhibitions and activities, and read comments from the community.
MUVIC does not have its own museum premises. You can visit our exhibitions at partner venues, fairs, conventions and other events.
SuperBoniato Store is a video game shop that hosts an ongoing MUVIC exhibition area inside its premises. This is a small, changing themed display within the shop, not MUVIC's headquarters or a standalone museum.
