2:17:18Both GameStops in my city closed
2:17:20gamestop just a pokemon scalper now
2:17:24now the building near the downtown has transformed into a Furniture store instead. :'(
2:17:27gamestops are just glorified TCG shops in my town
2:17:27gamestop investment to Funkos was their downfall:_bocchi:
2:17:32We do have an Entertainmart for physical games and media which is alright
2:17:53that is because Target is able to absorb those loses from their toys and video game sections
2:18:01I think GameStop failed to cash in on the retro gaming market. At least my local ones
2:18:16My long distance girlfriend is in a NYC suburb, want to visit one day
2:18:28Haven't been to Manhattan in like 12 years
2:18:49There is still one GameStop around my area but a bit far.
2:20:05gamestop was at its best before they acquired their competition (funcoland, electronics boutique, et al)
2:20:11the toys I has from the store (which I still have) are kinda weak now honestly. the first one I got was just a single track with Thomas The Tank Engine and some oil tank.
2:20:14the story about the guy selling all his amiibos for less than its worth still hurts:_bocchi:
2:20:27We must remain sincere and whimsy pilled
2:20:48the only whimsy I want are holograms of duel monsters
2:21:22the second one I have is a Death Trooper from Star Wars Rogue One. BUT THAT BARELY DO ANYTHING. and it only comes with a single blaster Pistol, not a Rifle.
2:21:36sell your used game, pay 5 bucks, sell it close to full price:_thumbcry:
2:21:51Now Micro Center, that's what really matters
2:22:10i do feel bad for any girl that had to work at a gamestop
2:22:45Mina with the gamestop attire:_pausechamp:
2:22:57I love those Death Trooper in Rogue One, but the figure barely have any body's movement.
2:23:46yeah Fry's got a pyramid up here in the Bay Area and like a Roman Palace but im sad i can't go to them anymore...
2:23:47Do you have those fancy magnifying glasses by chance? they look cool:_yay:
2:23:54Micro Center is still alright, had to spend ~$1900 on parts to upgrade my PC tho
2:24:21Plus, the fact that every figure you see at a random store show that nothing has changed.
2:24:22does Circuit City exist anymore? idrr
2:24:33$800 9070 XT, $470 RAM, $190 motherboard, $310 CPU, and $2 bag lol
2:25:19I felt verbal whiplash from"Ross has anime figures"
2:25:24....I mean I could go to Mitsuwa for that too I guess
2:25:26There's one in my city oh crap
2:25:32they had pokemon perfect order ETBs at some areas
