In prior years, I'd have my new console money wrapped up in other games, just waiting. These mufukkas are tilting towards bankruptcy so this go' round, I'm likely to get my consoles elsewhere. Last time I did that was the N64.

Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like one day our over-reliance on buying online is gonna bite all of us in the rear.

 

[GreenGrass]

why need a store front when people would rather buy the product online.

Gamestop just missed earnings bad and the stock is down over 20% in after hours trading. It's looking really bad.

As someone who enjoys randomly stopping into stores to see what I can find and clearance hunt, this is a bummer.

It's their own fault. I hated being harassed by some neck beard trying to get me to sign up for shyt. Just ring it up Skylar and I'll be on my way.

It will, and the fukkery that will ensue.

They have to or they'll end up like Blockbuster.

I don't know what Best Buy did, but they don't seem to be in trouble.

Best buy the only place you can go in most cities to view good tvs and appliances in person.

If Walmart had a premium tv department then it would be game over for best buy too.

It's a good thing Gamestop is run by out of touch old weight man that didn't see the digital age to suck them dry.


Their website runs like it's from 2003.

Im glad... We didn't need that Gamestop branding to take over digital media.

 

[Don Mack]

Been team Digital for at least 5 years so I could care less about Gamestop. For those that still like physical copies theres always Amazon and Wal Mart.

It's because bestbuy got side gigs within the store. Geek squad, slanging phones, and car audio hookup. At least the one around my way does I'm not sure about other locations

They became an authorized Apple place too in a lot of their stores, so people that aint got an apple store in town can use them for official repairs n shyt covered by apple care.
