Yea Forums constantly complains about Gamestop but can't see to stop themselves from going there.

Something doesn't add up.

>Video gamers go to the main store that specializes in vidya
Really makes you think

Your gamestop is multi-floored?

Fucking GameStop and their overpriced shit that they somehow manage to sell out on

>one of the largest complaints is how the company has pivoted towards collectables and merch to the point most of what they sell aren't video games.

Yeah, uh-huh. What's your excuse again?

I've seen a couple of multifloored GameStops myself

Never seen a multifloored gamestop except in very special areas like in New York

Fucking this. I went into Gamestop for the first time in a decade and nearly 90% of the store was fucking stupid merch. This is why online shopping is killing retail, and I'm fucking happy about it.

I don't make fun of Gamestop or their employees after this youtube.com/watch?v=Lb6OpRfyLFo

Bro... you blew it. She wanted you. All you had to do was lie and say your kid was over at their aunt's while you shagged.

youtube.com/watch?v=Cu101dw7uc8

Idk what GameStops you niggers shop at but I never have situations like this with customers.
like with , everyone I work with would’ve had no problem replacing these even a day or whatever after the policy. Either OP is a lying faggot or that employee is a retard

>t. I work there

One came in a gc game box and the other in a ps2 box. Had the original paper covers tho. Ds games come in an envelope tho.

I worked at GS too. The one I worked at was nazi tier with rules tho. Manager was a femnazi dyke who legit said she aint give a shit about games, it just makes money.

>main store for vidya
who gives a shit, Target, Walmart, Amazon, Best Buy, Fry's
I've seen fucking Kohl's sell latest games. If youre living in America, there is literally no excuse to limit yourself to Gamestop when you can get your shit cheaper elsewhere.

That's literally 15 years old.

I still care about games released earlier this gen and games last gen and those stores either dont sell a good selection or only have the GOTY editions and other shit

Gonna guess thats porn in a gamestop?

>buying from gamestop
>a corporation that parasitizes the game industry
if it's a game that's no longer available in most stores, get it on amazon or something, fuck gamestop

>buy RE2 Deluxe on Amazon
>they ship the game two days after release day
>get it five days later
>literally everyone has already beaten all four scenarios before I even got my copy
Fuck off Amazon.

This
It's not gamestop's fault user is a retard

Good luck, man. I haven't worked for GS but had a job at a larger game/collectible store where they pushed bullshit like this. Management was never satisfied, write-up happy and after securing a job at a smaller, local retro store (closer to where I lived then) I quit. The smaller store still had its fair share of bullshit work but it was so much more laid back it was insane. It's just hard to get on places like that. I had to basically become a regular and keep bugging them about work.

lol'd

Anyone who uses Qt or waifu deserves to die alone. Man the fuck up and ask her out pussy

Then go to any other used game store. Surely there is something other than GS in you area.

Stop going, the end.

>bought used 360 from gamestop
>still had parental controls on
I ended up bruteforcing the password since I really wanted to play RDR, it was AXAX
fucking gamestop

There is but they are highly priced and I can get the games cheaper at GS or Amazon by 15 dollars most of the time

If you choose Gamestop over Amazon, then you're doing it wrong.

I usually end up using Amazon

Why? If you are going to go full autismo why not at least get it from a retro gaming store or online where they have them in 200% better comditions

I live in a third world area of the country and don’t have hear autistic GameStop experiences you guys do. What’s wrong with you guys?

Why don't you just lie?
When I buy my Atelier games I just say I buy them for my little sister.

for new games, go to big box and/or retail chain because that will be best price.

if you want older games, go to pawn shops. no lie i just went to a used game store that has 2 locations and they only had stuff eb games/gamestop wouldn't take. go to a pawnshop and half the store is video games from atari to current gen. used game store had everything at collector's prices (FF8 was $75) at the pawn shop they had 5 copies $25 each. going back tomorrow to grab xenogears for $40.

Fucking GameStop. Friend gave me his spare one because he preordered bot hthe Wii and DS versions.

Win some / loose some. That GameStop was pretty chill in all honesty, my friend probably single handedly accounted for 20% of all their buisness during the height of the Xbox 360 / Wii generation.

if you shop at places like target and wal-mart you're part of the reason america is going down the shitter and all of the products we consume are made with poisonous chinese plastic.

Not entirely Gamestop's fault. I should have paid more attention.

Is there a rule that you have to keep the shelves straight and in alphabetical order? I looked at a box and didn't put it back in the exact same spot and the employee there almost instantly ran across the room and put it back in its spot.

>Walk into Gamestop
>Ask for a N3DSXL
>They don't have any other than refurbished ones
>Get the N2DSXL instead
>Cashier gives me like 6 extra stylus free under the pretense that the one on the N2DSXL sucks, which it does
Thank you Gamestop

The only thing I hate about going to GameStop are the customers. Crippled people, morbidly obese, children with their parents, smelly fags, etc. I don't really mind the annoying salesman faggots since you encounter them just about at any store. But something about GameStop really attracts stereotype tier customers.

He probably wanted pikachu...

I used to go to gamestops to look around, mostly at cheap older games. Then one guy working at one tried to sell me really hard on Kingdoms of Amalur even I though I told him I played all normie shit. It was an unpleasant enough interaction that I've never gone back into one.

He was only doing that to take the pressure off the state of Rhode Island

you monster

Not him but generally you need to keep the floor as tidy as possible. Ignore one case and it can snowball and become a nightmare. Knowing you have a game in stock but being unable to locate the case on the floor for a customer is a headache and wasted time.

When was the last time you went to GameStop/EB Games, Yea Forums? Why did you stop shopping there if you have?

>go to gamestop
>spaghetti
>bears

Fucking GameStop

I haven't brought anything at EB Games for almost half a year now:

>Amazon comes to Australia
>They aggressively match the lowest price automatically at any point in time
>Getting Days Gone for $52 Australian because of this
>By Australian standards, that's insane

A few days ago, because I just got a Switch and wanted another game for it instead of having to wait for a delivery. I hadn't been in once since 2008.

>tons of merch everywhere, funko pops, fnaf shit, basically walls of it
>more merch than games arguably
>they STILL do the "DO YOU WANT THE SUPER MEGA ULTRA POWER PACK SUBSCRIPTION" bullshit

Never going back in again if I can help it. Online shopping for life, fuck Gamestop.
