Get your nerd ass out the house and go to the store :martin:


:mjlol: and go buy a fantasy game where I pretend to be some avatar in a make believe world locked in the house for hours playing it

:russ: y'all can drop the whole introvert / picking up broads at the game store angle

storage space is costing less and less compression technology is getting better and better, and digital content is king. In a few short years physical will cost a premium so just start adapting now :flabbynsick:

I used to do security at a Best Buy in the city, they cut movies, cd's and games a few years back, I remember when they cut the movies and music section, they had totes upon totes of movies and cd's to go back to the warehouse, physical copies of media is going the way of the dinosaurs. And on the low, Best Buy as a company isn't looking too good, I don't see them being in business very long
Revenue is up and the stock is doing great

Digital is trash.

I love trading them in or reselling them:noah:

Best Buy selection is trash and they used to not have the games I preordered in stock

Gamestop wins again :to:

It may come back according to a Slickdeals comments
I've also seen it stated there that publisher pressured Best Buy to shut the program down because they were upset their prices were undercut elsewhere like on digital platforms.
