Yesterday’s closing of the store on the seventh generation console was a big event that prompted players to make their final purchases and share theirs. memories. GameStop wanted to connect with this important moment and encourage internet users to buy physical versions. Unfortunately, the person responsible for running the profile on website X decided to write a comment that is hard to get positive.
I bet you all wish you could buy physical copies right now.
Since the store has not had a good reputation for a long time, it didn’t take long for the angry players to respond. Many of them notice that they are in stationary centers devoting more space to figures than games.
It’s a good time for you to give people good value in trade, get rid of Funko and random products to make room for more real games, instead of making a hole in the market and being a a popular business brand for Funkoland and EB before you got them.
You literally don’t sell physical games in your stores anymore, just junk you call “collectibles.” But try well!
Gamestop probably had a lot of ending up in the market and then set their own reputation on fire by mercilessly exploiting their customers to be a NFT stock meme that ‘ sell Funko Pops.
Everyone in the comments is seriously missing the point, not realizing that GameStop used to look like this https://t.co/BEPiv71KgL pic.twitter.com/8TzZWpCp5x

Interestingly, the reporters included former employees who don’t have the best work memories.
When I worked at GS, after some games stopped working and were deemed “unsalable”, we had to destroy the discs/cartridges before throwing them away so that ‘ people can use them again.
Gamestop was and still is one of the worst retail places to work. They pressured me to ask customers if they wanted to sell their damn phone.
In fact, it is true that, despite the current situation, many people may start reaching for boxes more willingly. But, after what GameStop did, they might look for them in other places where the atmosphere is better and the offers are better. However, it will not easy work.
We sold them all to you for $32.17 https://t.co/EO3ssHaboz pic.twitter.com/JhzHRWmAoU
