> Cyberpunk novels were set in the high tech Chiba City, a district of Tokyo famous for it's gadget shops
Neuromancer is the only novel set in Chiba. Chiba is not famous for any gadget shops, it's an industrial and port town, which is most likely why it's the setting of the opening of Neuromancer - the protagonist is an outsider, down on his luck, living in a pretty shitty place.
