Are they trying to be an another chuck e cheese?
>Funko Pops
>T shirts
>junk food
>half the store is taken up by consoles and tvs that you'd spend five minutes playing at best, instead of actual videogames, the entire reason for going to a gamestop in the first place
They can't go bankrupt soon enough.
>socializing
people don't want that anymore, it's dead on arrival
These fuckheads can't die fast enough
My local gamestop is empty most of the day and the employees have to kick crackhead bums out all day. This gonna be fun to watch
cool
webm please I aint clickin that
Did they not realize that people go into gamestop to buy games and not play them? Why even offer the ability to play older consoles if they don’t let me buy retro games?
The problem is, Funko Pops and t-shirts sell. Video games don't.
Not even normies are dumb enough to pay $60 for a game anymore.
From the video, it seems like they might be selling retro games again, but online?
Why would I go to the store "hang out" and play Nintendo 64? I may have done stuff like this when I was a teenager and had no money.
>wanting me to click an ign link
get the fuck out of here with that shit
They have been for like 3 years now user
I clocked out somewhere around 2014, everythings been a literal blur since then
Do we let game stop die or do we save it. What happens to all those used games.
This. Somebody post the photo or whatever.
Like with everything else in life this will be ruined by minorities
Bruh
even radioshack knew when to quit
Except no one goes to Gamestop for games anymore because their prices stupid now. There’s a GameStop next to a Walmart near me and sometimes Walmart’s new game price is cheaper than Gamestop’s used price
Great filename user. Made me kek
I've never seen a gamestop that big.
are these people retarded? This is going to attract blacks and latinos. Black parents already treat gamestop like day care. They are going to monopolize everything for hours. The only good this will bring is new kino world star hip hop videos. I give it a week before we see a video of a black kid smashing that tv
U R NOT
this is going to be such a shit show when every Gamestop becomes even MORE of a daycare for shitty poorfag parents and their shitty poorfag kids.
It looks like a 7-11 with video games.
zoom zooms don't care about retro games, even if they did, they'd just emulate them on their phones. This won't attract collectors either, since I doubt they'll be able to compete with the amount of options that ebay gives you. Would anyone even want to trade in their Earthbound cartridges for a whopping $5? They're done for.
>Trusting niggers not to steal the TV
Here's what you do instead:
Turn it into a bar. Provide food. Make it BYOC or provide individual controllers for a cost so greasy faggots only mess up their own shit. During daytime om weekdays you have a generic selection of consoles spread out openly and in booths, mostly for 1-4 players. During nights and weekends you book events where people can ask for 1 of several selections (e.g. nintendo 64 with classic games like goldeneye or all xbox halo 2). You have some unique faggot funko pop toys on the back wall that can be purchased. You serve alcohol and simple foods, streamlining external delivering from uber eats or whatever. You clean controllers you rent out between use.
Boom. You now have an audience of pathetic numales willing to spend money on fag shit.
So they took a trip to Ikea did they?
Why is Apple the only company that was able to implement stores like these successfully?
This my gamestop is barely bigger than my bedroom
How the fuck will it work? can I go there with my UNIEST disc and play some matches with the people there?
Possible one of the saddest things I've ever seen, and yes, I have seen my life.
I see this'll be a fun, chuckles-filled ride into oblivion. Laughing all the way, brah. Oh god I'm laffin all da way.
>yeah me some random user knows more than people that have been in the businees for decades
I clicked it. It's just a typical gamestop with the addition of a sort of lounge in the back. There are a few T.Vs and "retro" consoles hooked up to them so anyone can come in and play some games I guess. There's also a table with some chairs for people who want to bring their switches or something.
This will not save Gamestop.
>It's confirmed to be based. GameStop is back bros.
Why are corporate bootlickers so cringe? I used to work for the home office, and if you had even an inkling of an idea on how we fucked fatfuck "gamers" like you over for years and years, you wouldn't be so quick to say "BASED"
Or maybe you would because you're a fat fucking retard.
>people used to leave their kids unsupervised at FUCKING Gamestop in the past
>Now they're given actual game stations to fuck up so more people will start leaving their kids there
Those locations are gonna be trashed and unusable within weeks
Brainlet here. Can anyone tell me why GameStop is shutting down? I haven't bought any of their stuff since 2013.
>Why would a video game store have something to appeal to teenagers?
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I WONDER WHY??????????????? TRULY A MYSTERY!!!!!!!!!!
>trusting niggers
Yeah, and?
You just answered your own question you fucking retard
Apple is only bought because of the name. They can get away with charging 1k for a monitor stand and having shit stores since apple is seen as a luxury brand
Brick and mortar stores are growing more and more irrelevant as digital copies of games become the norm. Especially places like GameStop where they badger you into making preorders and try shoving more shit on you that you don't want. The majority of the time, you can find that current gen used game on sale for cheaper as a download than you would driving to their crappy stores, and having to breathe the same air as actual neckbeards.
Bring back FuncoLand.
I wish there was a barcade here in Miami.
Read the first sentence of that post user
I hate Gamestop as much as the next person but these might actually attract a lot of people if they become meetups for FGC locals. Though "attracting people" doesn't necessarily translate to success. They get a hundred or so people coming in and out to play Tekken or whatever, how does that translate into money? Unless they charge to use the machines or run tourneys themselves and take a cut of the entry fees. Sounds like a lot of work for the typical Gamestop employee though.
who cares
>>Why would a video game store have something to appeal to teenagers?
>HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I WONDER WHY??????????????? TRULY A MYSTERY!!!!!!!!!!
They're appealing to your boomer ass when you were a teenager. Teenagers nowadays dont do stuff like that specially now with online games.
T. Have 2 teenage siblings
Damn.... we really do live in a society.
so like a shitty arcade with extra steps?
Do you have to shower to show up and play? If there's a smell policy then I ain't gonna bother.
Are those N64 going to be welded to the consoles which better be welded too because black kids will steal all of that day 1
>"It's confirmed that I'm sucking on about 20 GameStop executive cocks. CameNonStopInMyMouth is back bros!"
A society that minorities ruin. Thanks to blacks and latinos this will never work out.
The poop in your underwear can only be 25% encrusted on entry.
How do you guys survive in America if everyone darker than the color of curdled milk apparently does nothing but swarm into stores and make off with the merchandise?
>Possible one of the saddest things I've ever seen, and yes, I have seen my life.
You're all right user
>anyone with two brain cells isn't going to step foot into a gamestop so tards are guaranteed
>lounge in the back and front, insuring the most insufferable of tards won't leave until their parents/chaperones decide to come pick them up
>check out placed dead center allowing the tards to complete surround and suffocate you with their smell and freakouts
Holy fuck. I'd be turning in my badge if I were a Gamestop wagie.
I don't see what's bad about this. Imagine if they tried organizing community nights for fighting game players or some shit, could get more locals happening oh wait none of you faggots even play video games
To be fair, there's a game shop around my area that has a table area since they have Magic/Yugioh/Pokemans card games like on the weekends and stuff. That and next to a Gamestop in my old mall was a internet lounge. If they're trying to combine the two, it would be a neat idea, but maybe it only works in Asia. Then again, I'm just a guy from a small town, so maybe some city folk can shed some light on that angle.
Lots and lots of guns
I can't imagine gamestop employees will be happy to hear they'll have to babysit retards all day (even more than usual).
The gamestops near me are small. How in the hell they plan to redesign small gs? also, where did they'll get the money to remodel thousands of stores?
Thank you for leaking this I am glad to see our friends over at GameStop™ are doing a wonderful redesign. I hope to hear more from you soon Yea Forumsbrother!
Literally it's the police that only stand in the way. Like I live in NYC it's just the NYPD that keeps this entire city from crumbling. If they didn't exist, minorities would destroy this entire city in less than a week
Unironically looks great. Definitely a lot cleaner than the Gamestop near where I live.
This is how Ebgames stores are like here in NZ over well half of the store is merch.
What the fuck do kids do at gamestop? Can anybody explain that to me? do they just look at box arts and whatever propaganda they have in the TV?
Here is the webm.
My gamestop was playing the Democrat debate this past weekend I can't believe they were pushing that on kids
This is why we can't have nice things, this shit could probably be good in Japan or anywhere else without niggers, it's not fair cause I think the idea is ok but that shit ruins it
Because a casual might come in, be slightly interested and might buy tekkan or another fighter while visiting.
So would it be correct to assume that this is happening to EB Games too?
Take the BBC out your mouth cuck
So it's going to become a social environment? Screw that.
>The gamestops near me are small. How in the hell they plan to redesign small gs? also, where did they'll get the money to remodel thousands of stores?
Based off the video it's just a floor plan that doesn't really specify exact furniture/equipment. Most of the consoles and TVs are probably from trade-ins while the rest of it is just shuffling around preexisting shelves. I'm sure once the autists break everything in the lounge and smear feces on the chairs that will be the final death knell. No way are they going to be able to shoulder the continued maintenance cost of 'tism damage.
To think it could get any more soulless than it is right now
A lot of gamestops are in malls, malls are filled with troublemaking niggers. They will not be able to afford to replace the shit damaged by the nigs.
t. Ex mall employee
GameStop ‘reimagined’
shill pls
Black people ruin good things like this always. Gamestop had a chance if they left it to board games like Monopoly and Candy Land because blacks lack the IQ to play those but putting N64 consoles in there is asking for trouble
Hmm sounds like you feel inferior.
You sound like you are either a neet or work in IT
I've seen fat white neckbeards and white trannys throw a fit inside a gamestop show me one of a black person and I'll believe you.
>That's 25 minutes away from me
Looks like I'm checking this shit out.
He's probably black and in denial of what his race is.
Isnt there a video of a black kid trashing a gamestop cause they wouldnt do his return?
Enjoy cleaning up after the urban jungle chimps fling feces all over the furniture.
>At gamestop with couple of friends
>Play some good ass tekken on one of the TVs.
>Suddenly entrance bell rings as you hear some squeakin voices.
>4 nigglets start going everywhere
>they notice we playing games and having fun
>They all go behind the couch watching us play tekken
>can feel the heavy breathing in my neck from the nigglets
>they say that when is their turn
>tell them to go to other console at the back
>they start crying
>gamestop manager comes around and tell us to let them play or we are getting kicked out
GameStop corporate pls
just start beating them, and tell the employee sorry about your kids, it won't happen again
Everything that's not nailed down is getting torn off and stolen day 1
You guys still have low iqs and cause over 50% of the homicides
>getting paid minimum wage to tend to 10 kids and make sure they don't break any of the consoles or controllers
Yeah if nobody wanted to work for them now, I can't imagine what kind of masochist will want to work in the future.
Seriously this is just asking for niggers to thrash the place and steal shit, NA is a absolute joke
DELETE THIS
welp now theres just gonna be a bunch of poor greasy bastards crowding up the entire store playing games and beings loud retards
how many times a week did jamal shove you in a trashcan for being autistic user?
I'm white.
There has to be some kind of money laundering at play here because there is no way these managers are so out of touch they don't realize niggers will ruin this. Day 1 white kids will be playing whatever nicely, Tyrone will see this as he walks in to buy Gears and by day 2 the entire hood will be monopolizing all the consoles letting no one else play like they do for everything.
Corporate overlords are so out od touch its ridiculous.
>that souless voice at the end answering the phone.
Yeah that is what retail does to you. Wish there was a better minimum wage for retail workers because that shit is not easy.
I don't see how this is any different than what it's like now.
Not once my parents luckily sent me to private school
Thats even sadder but expected getting offended on their behalf.
theres not an entire couch and gaming section in the stores now, you'll have that one little black kid playing the WiiU in the corner but thats it
>Some guy walks in with a switch and goes up to the counter
>"I'd like to sell this"
>Employee tells him that he needs the AC adapter and the dock
>Walks out of the store yelling "Gamestop is the shittiest fucking store"
How hard is it to sell a switch on ebay or some shit
LOL it's going to be like this but worse every day. Whatever, I don't shop at gamestop but the chimp out videos will be pretty good to watch.
Welcome. Welcome to GameStop 17.
Learn how to form proper sentences, and use punctuation. Are you sure you're white? I have serious doubts.
That video felt like Chris Chan trying to lure a cute boyfriend free girl into his home with snacks and entertainment
You know what, I like it better than the fucking funko pop/tshirt/minecraft foam prop spam. Interested to see what they do with the redesign, but they'll probably squander it and go bankrupt in 3 years.
>private school
something must of happened there for you to be so angry
>Gamecubes
>those old ass tvs
yup they better set up 30% of their store budget just to buy febreeze, any of you Gamestop maanagers, I recomend you buy spring and renewal one, it smells pretty good.
Can I still buy video games, though? I like physical copies.
Looks like a vape store
in a bad way
It looks like a cross between one of those shitty cell phone stores, and Pac Sun
What's the bet black people will ruin this?
Needs a strict 18+ policy, also security
Why not buy them on amazon?
>attract smelly neckbeards and parents looking for places to dump their kids/manchildren while they shop
>the smell of shit and shrill cry of children drives legitimate purchasers away
We did it! We saved Gamestop!
There's no way to win here because if you prevent thefts too well enraged nigs will toss a molotov cocktail into the store.
yeah
anyone outside burgerland gives a fuck about this?
My local mom and pops store tried to they even brought in arcade machines within 2 weeks they took it out because niggers would loiter around it all day and were just spending all day in there instead of school
Have you ever met more than 10 non-white and non-Asian people? One in 10, shit even 1 in 7, are pieces of shit. That number gets even higher when we’re talking just about niggers.
Sure! As soon as you register for your GameStop Power To The Players Rewards Points Club, sign up for a subscription to Game Informer, sign over the deed to your house, and you'll be saving up to (actually paying more) some percent!
I'm not angry just am aware of reality user. Niggers ruin everything and they will ruin this too.
>Thank you for calling Gamestop, this is Brian, how can I help you?
>we want the 1995 magic the gathering audience
They sure are living rent free in your head.
HOL UP. SO U SAYIN. WHATCHU SAYING IS...
you just replied to a nigger
When the 9 billionth dude with dreads in skinny jeans nods out on xans, are the employees legally allowed to use them as mops to clean up the store
How are they living rent free?
That or a white guilt liberal at this point its white people who get upset more than actual blacks do.
basically
...
They used to come in and fuck around on the demo stations but I don't know if they still have those.
stop replying to me white boy
Are you implying black people can't punctuate correctly? Is this how low /pol/ reaches now?
Not him but I got beat up in private school all the fuckin' time
That said my public high school has been called worse than most federal prisons.
Lol it's another episode of I know that dumbass was a whiteoid but because I'm white I'm going to ignore it. Daily reminder Jews and Arabs are scientifically white so keep screeching about Blacks when you're already hating your own kind, LAWMAO.
Yeah if there is no policy against kids (I think something like 16-18 or older) staying there then it will just be overran by moms leaving their kids there for hours on end.
I still remember how I went to a gamestop some friend of mine was working just to chat, and after like 10 minutes 3 kids just entered alone, I kept watching the entrance like I was specting the parent to come tru, nobody was to be seen, asked the kids, "mom told us to wait here so she can go shopping" I just looked at him and he told me that it happened every weekends so I shouldn't be surprised.
All they did is take the games from the display and showed eachother the games and shit, they were there for well over fucking 20 minutes, I was feeling so bad for my friend I kinda started cleaning behind them he was a cool dude but man I wanted to say some shit to their mom.
Yea go back.
Stop pretending to be black, racist.
>I got beat up in private school all the fuckin' time
70 % of blacks are low iq, hyper aggressive, self centered individuals with no sense of empathy or understanding.
im not pretending
I see what they're trying to do but the giant blasting advertisements are going to kill it. People used to chill in gamestop all the time until those things started being mandatory.
I don't go to GameStop anymore primarily because of the literal retards and children that go there. Shit makes me sad seeing a kid drag his parents around. I don't like them as is and don't plan to hang out with them. As for GameStop the store, it's fine and I don't mind going, sure as hell will never sell to them.
I got into fights too but they weren't like, "protect your head because 6 niggers are going to gang up on you and curbstomp you on the ground" unfair fights.
this. and the homeless will gather too. what a shit idea, burn in the fuck pits shit dicks gamestop slop
what if someone steals the consoles or the carts inside the consoles?
Without deflecting, do you think there is truth in the idea that black people will end up ruining this?
and 90% percent of the people who make post like this are lanky manlets who like to erp on discord
Ah, they’re trying to take the Barnes&Noble approach. Market research shows that stores that can also act as “hangout spots” are doing far better than stores made to enter and then leave. If you’re wondering why your local McDonald’s was redesigned, this is why. Companies are jumping over eachother left and right to become more welcoming. What game stop and to a lesser extent McDonald’s and many other places don’t realize is that chipotle and Barnes and Noble are locations exclusively for the upper middle class, market filtering out the McDonald’s and GameStop Demographic. no one’s going to hang out at a Game stop or McDonald’s except the kind of filth you really don’t want inside your store for long periods of time.
Or the fucking controllers?
This is literally just going to end up with a bunch of sweaty mexican kids hogging the FIFA console until the store closes. They should just cut their losses and rent them out for local events.
Why can't we have arcades like in Japan god damnit
Why wasn't I born to some rich Japanese parents
>live in rural kentucky
>my gamestop is maybe twice the size of my bedroom
>most people i've ever seen in one was during the midnight release for pokemon sun/moon and the number of people was less than 12
>won't be big enough to be a lounge
>won't have enough of an audience for tournaments
>still carries fucking funko pops and non vidya merch
how the fuck is this going to stop them from going bankrupt? i literally can't see a positive
>chipotle and Barnes and Noble are locations exclusively for the upper middle class
No they fucking aren't. Every dipshit teenager in America sits in Chipotle eating the overpriced low quality food they serve.
>but online
Why would I go to Gamestop then?
NO NO NO SAMURAI FLAMENCO
It will be BLACKED on opening day.
WE WUZ KANGZ!
I wanna know this, i never understood the EB/Gamestop relation, i know that canada and australia have EB games but are they all owned by the same parent company?
I am an oldfag boomer and I support this. Growing up with arcades in comic shops made me tough. I had to constantly fight feral niggers and spics who couldn't handle losing in a video game like a rational human being and it toughened me up and gave me a scar on my arm so you fucks should have to deal with that too and hopefully toughen up.
Pretty likely it'll be closed in the next wave of closures.
Gamestop stores will become one of the three options
1. that hang out thing in OP
2. arenas. "hey e-sports kids come on down
3. retro focused. have stuff older than the wii/ps3/360 in the store
the store I work will be most likely #3, too small for hang out and the wifi is too shit for online play.
This is fucking stupid anyways. If youre an adult with friends you have your own place and video game console where you can enjoy those things on your own terms instead of inside some corporate shithole thats been ripping off poor and middle class people for years
The rumors are half of the gamestops will eventually close so ones like yours are probably on that list.
So what really happened is, you saw a black guy once, and left the premises because you were afraid.
Who's the target audience for this? People who grew up with this kind of culture all just play games at home and invite friends over if they want company, shut-ins won't leave the house, and kids now just want to watch Fortnite streams. All they're going to do is get the occasional creep looking to pick up young girls, and a bunch of poor kids whose parents use it as a daycare.
maybe i'll be able to finally get a job at whatever company buys the lot when it goes under then
no i really don't mainly because i dont see this idea taking off much at all, and if it did happen police are quick to react to stuff like this
No I beat a nigger in x men vs street fighter and he flipped out, challenged me to "street fight but real nigga" and went outside and tried to blindside me with his motorcycle helmet and missed and got fucked up. I have a scar because some puerto rican literally pulled a switchblade on me during a game of SF3 and cut me in the arm while playing. Wasn't even the guy playing but one of his 300 cousins behind me.
I don't know how it applies, but this is probably going to happen at one
youtube.com
This x1000. It's why every other store removed demo kiosks: nigger brats would spend all fucking day leaving shit smears on the cheap carpet while they harassed anyone who came into the vid dept.
it was grades 1-8 and first graders had recess the same time as 8th graders so they just kicked the shit out of us every day
also had to ride bus with 8th graders
Well when the world star hiphop videos of niggers trashing the place come out you will do what you do best and pretend they don't exist I suppose.
He fucking stole it bro that much is obvious.
>police are quick to react
Lol
>hosting live events
I have been saying they needed to do this since the damn stores came into existance
This happened to my boy and the school conveniently """lost"""" the security tape and not a single adult intervened. Upstate NY btw. Now he's homeschooled.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
GET FUCKED WHITEY. How tf do you lose to a Puerto Rican!!!!!?????
They're gonna go broke replacing those couches every week to get rid of the gamer smell.
we have round 1 but its completely soulless
dave and busters exists but its a meme
namco used to run arcades but they all dead and outdated now
chuck e cheese is just gambling addiction for kids now, no games
my mcdonalds was redesigned and looks good and approachable now but has a sign saying no loitering and you cant take more than an hour eating. lol.
>Every gamestop will have CRTs now
Won't that make the price of CRTs spike? Oh hod. Oh GOD.
Where did I say I lost?
Let's get a new VIRAL TREND going where people deliberately shit themselves on epic GamerZone GameStop LoungeZone Couches powered by GameFly
the same thing you do when some white kid shoots up a school i guess
Really the only way they would get me through the door is if they were actually selling us supplies for the avid collector to get the best experience out of their consoles. I wanna see a miracle. I want to see them not only letting you play games on CRT's in the store, but actually selling new CRT's. Get some gooks to make some PVM quality displays in various sizes, so I don't have to pay some scalper scum on ebay $3,000 for an old Trinitron broadcast monitor. Sell us a solution to the Framemeister or OSSC that's cheap so we can get the best display out of our consoles when playing on HDTV's. Sell us premium modded retro consoles with RGB or HDMI mods, at prices better than the specialists would charge us on ebay. Sell us rom carts to give us the option to either buy physical retro games, or just spend a lump sum for an all in one solution for each console, leave us to find our own rom files. Manufacture and sell all the hard to find cables needed to display our old consoles, like scart cables, and Nintendos coveted digital out component video cables for original model Gamecubes. Sell high quality clone consoles like the Analogue Mega SG. Make partnerships with all the upcoming FPGA based clone console manufacturers and make GameStop the only US distributor of them.
That's the kind of miraculous shit I wanna see happen to turn them around.
Well at least we are at an understanding that both of these things exist
Blacks still are worse when you don't generalize to one specific part of homicide and factor in all homicides. I mean, if we were to be honest you know?
I had a friend operate a gaming lounge like this with TVs, console statsions, PCs etc. A majority of his income was from hosting tournaments. He had to implement a policy of "if you're staying in the store to hang out, you need to buy something" to prevent thugs and homeless from loitering around, and he sold gas station esque snacks and drinks to get people to "purchase something" ontop of a small think geek section that no one purchased from.
real shit, why don't they partner with taco bell or something.
They don't leave their house and are racist, they don't know what anything is like in the real world. We have just as many poor white families as black families in America, maybe even more in America on pure numbers alone since there are more white people than black. I grew up poor as hell, way poorer than most blacks, and poor whites steal just as much as poor blacks do. I wish these stereotypes would just stop. poor is poor regardless of race. Some very upstanding white poor families with high moral and ethical codes, my family was one and so were my friends families. But the same can be said of lots of poor black households, they tend to be very Christian and I had a couple black friends at school who were poor like me who were raised properly. That said, also a ton of poor white families with no ethic or moral code who will steal anything and do anything, they are animals, and same goes for poor black families. My 2 cents. Wish people would grow up, stupid, ignorant poltards.
The autism literally jumped from my monitor and into my real life.
Years ago I was in a ghetto part of Eastern Europe and my cousin showed me this place where a guy has consoles and tvs everywhere and he charges you x amount of money to be in there for an hour. Why doesn't gamestop just do that?
Say goodbye, user.
I wish we didn't let all these shitskins into our country.
That'd be nuts, it won't happen though it's way too niche market
>and poor whites steal just as much as poor blacks do
(((citation needed)))
>GameStop: BoxLunch skin
Yeah they're fucked.
I don't know man. If they have decent CRTs and are willing, I know people in my area are always looking for a place to play competitive fighting games.
I have a flea market near me that does this and it's clearly illegal, like, they're charging poor little mexican kids like $1.50 per smash ultimate game, but they can't buy a switch to play at home so they do it there every week
surprisingly there's a KoF'98 machine that's always packed too.
Our (great)-great grandparents said the same thing at the beginning of the 20th century.
Did she single-handedly destroy gamestop? youtube.com
they weren't wrong
The only good thing I feel about having these shitskins is they push us to be better human beings and indulge less in shitty hobbies which they end up destroying. If a hobby is worth having it won't attract shitskins.
FUCKING GAMESTOP
I'm speaking from personal experience. I grew up in a trailer trash park and happens on a daily basis. Whites steal from each-other same as blacks steal from each-other. Bro human nature the same regardless of race. You get desperate enough any race will do anything. Yeah we had some meth gangs getting in scraps that occasionally got deadly in my area. My cousin is in jail for 35 years 2nd degree murder, armed robbery, possession and distribution of narcotics (meth) and 7 or so counts of racketeering. And that's kid stuff, what he was doing.
What is the point of selling t-shirts at a video game store?
>I'm speaking from personal experience.
Ok so we can completely throw it out then as it is meaningless to this conversation.
I like to go places.
children like wearing shirts with mario and pokemon on them
So uh, how long until they break and put their shit on clearance? Might swoop in for a game or two then.
How is this going to translate to profits? It;s not that much different than what they have now just less retail space. There must be something they are not telling us, some new source of revenue they will introduce soon.
>>makes a point based on honest real world observation that's easily backed on statistical and scientific evidence
>posts weak lefty meme dodging the point
this is why you failed in the free market of ideas
>B-but some whites are bad too!
Okay, go live in Somalia. Whites and blacks are the same right? Go live there. :)
While I agree with your anecdotal evidence, and have seen the same kind of "niggerish" behavior in whites blacks, hispanics, asians, and everything inbetween, it's really more of an income/poverty based issue. That said, I do know some white groups (and jews) who stick together regardless of poverty, but I wouldn't count them since they are basically living in a completely different culture than the average american.
Its going to translate into losses
>push to be better humans
>crackers proceed to mass shoot people for retarded or no reason

>Marvel Drones,Shitposters,Religious nut jobs,Pedos,ResetEra users,K-Pop fans are ALL OR MOSTLY WHITE
I like it. It'd be nice if they ran local fighting game tournaments out of them every week. I have a gamestop across the street so it'd be convenient.
It just looks so uncomfy
>Jews are white
Here we go again
That felt great to watch. I wish it were me at my local store.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with being Jewish and yes we are white.
jews arent white
No they aren't
Give reparations to the Canaanites then.
Not all gamestops will have this transformation. Every store in the country just got done with their yearly reset of their respective floor plans (t. employee), mine which is a very small outlet location just finished ours and it was mostly shuffling around preexisting stuff, though we are getting some new fixtures and trashing some older stuff.
Most notably Switch stuff was pushed to the front and PS4 to the back because market research showed Switch products were selling more in our district.
Honestly I would buy some vidya t-shirts like pic related, but the ones they sell at Gamestop will probably be normalfag shit.
To sell tacos? Would you really trust a gamestop employee to cook a meal for you?
smash isnt a fighting game
Honestly some of the shirts they have are pretty novel, unless you're embarrassed and think people will actually give a flying fuck about what (You) wear in public.
user...
I got a kino Kirby shirt with his name written in Japanese. What's wrong with that?
>Definitely a lot cleaner than the Gamestop near where I live.
Not for long, judging from the crowd it's expected to bring in.
When I was younger I was assaulted and robbed of my video games by 3 kids on one bike. A white kid, a black kid and an asian kid. The lesson is, all ethnicities have garbage people. Don't go thinking it's exclusive to one race.
>Ameritards words are fact
>wearing clothing with words you can't read on them
Do you also have tattoos with the kanji for love and peace on your body?
There is no lesson to be learned from your bullshit anecdotal story where a black kid on a bike is not stealing the bikes of the other 2 kids.
I’m not gonna lie I could see this working. My local Game Place makes most of its money from Smash and Yugioh Tournaments. They sell used games on the side but it’s mostly tournaments and hangouts
>sofa and flatscreen
What neighborhood is this in?
>You can actually like walk around and shit.
Not gonna lie its a huge improvement.
>Walk into Gaystop.
>Hangers poking you in the face.

>MaddenMaddenMadden
This shit only works in Asian or white communities. Niggers will ruin it guaranteed.
jews need a lot of amerimutt money to begin with so they're american owned by default
>video game-themed merchandise
>at a store that sells video games
They need something other than just video games to help reel people in.
It really happened. The game was Donkey Konga, filed a police report and everything. And it was 3 kids on the one bike. They stopped, told me they thought the game looked cool, I start talking about it. The white kid sucker punches me, the asian kid grabs the game and the black kid takes off with one kid in the seat and one on the back pegs.
C'mon, you know what I meant. Cut me some slack.
Came here to agree with this.
I remember when I was a kid I was like "mom racism is bad just like u an me" but now I understand. Obviously not all nigs, and you can tell if one is human pretty quick.
>Niggers will ruin it guaranteed
That store is in Oklahoma. Its already got a lower than average black population, and city blacks are 1000x worse than country blacks. Then again, big cities just create worse people overall. Its the reason you can find small cities where everyone leaves their doors unlocked, blacks or no blacks present.
Thats great dude and I know 1 black guy that hasn't killed anyone yet so that nullifies statistics.
The retards in this thread bashing blacks are doing the same
>dude niggers and spicsare going to steal everything in that store!
>uhh why isn't every store robbed 24/7 then?
>dude non-whites will just steal everything! That's what they do !
>tfw local gamestop closed down out of nowhere after 15 years
They should have just started selling retro vidya in store like Disc Replay.
>They need something other than just video games
That's what other retailers are for. Right?
>Then again, big cities just create worse people overall.

So first my story is fake and then you're gonna throw statistics at me? Can you show me them? Maybe from an accredited source?
Come on, you know this is true. Don't play stupid. We can jerk off nature nurture shit all day long but the fact is that television gets a week before Daquan throws a Gamecube into it.
>>dude niggers and spicsare going to steal everything in that store!
Because 7/11's don't have gaming lounges with consoles set up. Instead it's a store with an angry pajeet who usually has a shotgun underneath the counter. But they are the same like what gamestop is doing here.
They should turn into full blown internet/game cafes.
youtu.be
There is literally one a post above yours but I wait with baited breath how you will reject it. You guys always do. How will you do it this time?
Interesting statistic even though it doesn't really say anything about what I was talking about. Although the most interesting thing about it is the blacks get blamed for 7.3% more crimes than they commit, yet there is only 0.5% of cases that the race is unknown for the criminal. How the fuck does that add up?
Can confirm this as a customer.
The layout was swapped with the first thing you see being switch and merch shit and the other stuff getting pushed to the back of store. Also they took out those spinning gift card racks for which I can only assume being kids kept fucking them up.
imagine being so black that whenever you type the whole text turns into a black bar
It says that blacks and latinos are arrested more. Must be a reason
>The NYPD is racist!
Nope can't go that way because then they would be arresting asians too who last I checked aren't white.
The actual interesting thing about those stats is when you compare them to the city wide and also country wide population breakdown by race and realize how whites are underrepresented based on their race and blacks and latinos OVER represented. But like.....we are all the same kumbaya all that stuff.
The picture he used is the wrong one but you got me. I can't argue that you got numbers when I asked for them. I wish I knew enough to present the other side of it but I don't. Hoping someone does though, there's no way it's just this simple. There's some factor at play here. I actually live in a big american city and this doesn't really align with my experience.
same guy here. The spinning shit is gone at all stores yeah. Will be replaced by a new wall fixture which i haven't gotten yet. Interesting you say merch was pushed to the back at your store, it's at the front at mine. And we've gotten a t-shirt tower fixture so we can stop using hangers.
Xbox is in the back now lol
No one is racist towards asians, they're like honorary whites these days.
>giant ass CRT's
Cool, can't wait to play some old ga-
>smash fags will hog it
oh right...
>I wish I knew enough to present the other side of it but I don't.
Instead of getting mad that you don't have the talking points at the go to counter me maybe understand I actually am bringing up a legit point here and you shouldn't be worried so much about "countering" me and consider maybe there is truth to what I am saying. Crazy, I know. Those stats are from a big American city. What city are you from just curious?
Other retailers aren't going to care as much about catering to a single niche when they have to worry about the general public. If you carry harder-to-find merchandise that you don't have to wait two days to ship for in advance, you will get people from that niche.
I highly doubt something like that would catch on in the US and even if it did it would probably get shaved down into a shadow of its former self. Someone tried bringing capsule hotels over to the east coast and in the end they just turned it into the smallest FDA/hipster-approved hotel rooms imaginable.
By other stuff I meant Xbox and PS4 is now near the checkout. Also my place already has the wall mount for the cards, which replaced the TCG rack.
Also on a tangent, this location has a gatcha-pon machine that replaced one of those mini arcade machines. It's like 3 dollars to crank it.
Who fucking cares, just click the link if you want to see it, or don't. Stop being a fucking autist.
How was any of that mad? I waved the white flag at you in defeat. I just wish I knew more. There is no way I can accept "black people bad" as a final answer. It has to go deeper.
>What city are you from just curious?
I really don't want to say.
Some locations have that gashapon, others will be getting a newer Funko-manufactured one with video display and monthly rotating items. I fear for them.
Police patrol non-white neighborhoods more than white ones.
rich blacks commit more crime than poor whites
looks cool but not enough setups, this a joke
>I really don't want to say.
Why not? I live in NYC thus why I produced those stats. You can't be doxxed for just saying what big American city you are from. Just curious. You aren't afraid similar stats will be in your city and don't want to volunteer that info? No......can't be that. That would be dishonest.
Go away jontron
So why are Asians not arrested as high?
No, it does have similar stats. I just feel like the story combined with my city may be too much specific information for Yea Forums.
>expecting them to patrol areas where nothing bad is happening
They have a lot of money and influence
>No, it does have similar stats.
Ok great. So we kinda refuted your anecdotal evidence here, at least how it applies to the general sense. Like I said before, maybe consider the facts and adjust your worldview a little.
Asians usually live in the same neighborhoods as whites.
why is he breathing so hard?
>They have a lot of money and influence
What does that even mean?
Source on that? I would love to take you to China Town, Flushing and parts of Brooklyn and see you make that claim with a straight face.
>It says that blacks and latinos are arrested more. Must be a reason
I didn't say anything that argues against that point. I said that city blacks are worse than country blacks. Then I clarified that ALL races get worse when in a city environment. Crime rates go up in cities. There is a reason why Chicago and Detroit are known for their crime rates and why Stillwater OK is not.
>he doesn't live in a white utopia
lol
*CDC
Clearly some groups of people are worse in cities than others. Significantly. You agree with that right?
In my city we get hella immigrants and they manage to do better for themselves then blacks. Don't wanna be racist but I don't think the culture that black people like such as gang shit is helping
Imagine the smell after the first week of this.
>Asians don't live with each other
Another white liberal in a 98.9% white utopia lecturing others about race detected.
>gamestop is back
Thank god, Gamestop is literally the only games store within a reasonable driving distance. If it went to shit I would've had to go full digital, which I'd hate to do in my rural area.
strong fruity air freshener throughout the store that slowly fades into feces and scrotum sweat as you approach the couch. vomit will be added by week 3.
A lot of asians do live in white neighborhoods retard.
Yes cultures do self segregate but pajeets, arabs and Indians are the ones who most often live in what would be considered "white" neighborhoods in big cities you fucking troglodyte
enjoying your school shootings whitey?
this redesign will fail. They are trying to be an internet cafe or something? But without enough setups and no food. It just looks like they made enough space for people to actually try the video games before they buy it. But the thing is that it don't address the problem of decline in physical copies being sold
>Clearly some groups of people are worse in cities than others
Possibly. Mafia's used to control entire populations. Hell, as low as statistics are for asians, look at how much control the Yakuza have in Japan. Organized crime is still crime. Yes, statistics have blacks overrepresented, but that is a small part of a big picture.
Having worked at a gamestop I can already see the bullshit that employees are gonna have to deal with when poor black kids get dropped off all day and just play games not buy anything and eventually start conflicts with anyone that asks for a turn.
Like I said "black people bad" just isn't something I'm willing to accept because of some major city's police department stats. I am not wise enough to tell you why and I'm man enough to admit it.
>Asians usually live in the same neighborhoods as whites.
Has now become
>A lot of asians do live in white neighborhoods retard.
Which is it? You have now changed your argument and still haven't sourced anything as proof.
>Possibly
How is it possibly? I provided stats that say so here:
Click that post and read them. How is it possibly? It's clear as day.
>1:00
>they have a used dreamcast, n64, snes for sale
what the fuck why does my gamestop only have shitty ps3s meanwhile these guys get the best shit
KEK this reminds me more of those old card shops where guys played card games
They tried those touch-screens already and hardly anyone used them. I don't know why they'd try that again.
>Large CRTs
Well, I guess if they rent some more space than the small shoe-boxes around here, that could probably kill the local mom-and-pops that do events now and then.
Asians statistically have a higher income than other minorities, thus thru can afford to live in the wealthier neighborhoods dominated by whites.
>statistics
You havnt used them either so far so I'm not either lol.
>Like I said "black people bad" just isn't something I'm willing to accept because of some major city's police department stats. I am not wise enough to tell you why and I'm man enough to admit it.
>I refuse to believe numbers and statistics because I am dumb and ignorant
At least you are honest the problem is people like you still vote. So things will just get worse and worse.
Kill yourself
Where are you going to show me actual proof that asians live with blacks. Like population stats based on towns, census data anything?
>You havnt used them either so far so I'm not either lol.
Yea I have here about crime and you tried to make an argument refuting it so back up your claim with actual facts and stats:
You can't play that card sorry, womp womp.
Where I went to college, there was this gaming area in the library but the the only people that ever used it was like the same couple dozen sweaty, smelly losers who played Smash all day and everyone made fun of them. That is what this reminds me of. I don't see it being very appealing, especially given the very corporate and pushy reputation of GameStop so people would probably not feel comfortable relaxing and lounging there.
Pay for food like FLGS for board games do. The issue is clean-up/mess and space. Gamestop simply does not have the space for this shit.
>hey if you guys are gonna hang out here then you have to preorder something
>wachu say nigga
So what do you wanna do tough guy? You wanna send them away? You wanna kill them? Detain them? Give me your big boy white nationalist idea.
Actually looks cool. Imagine playin some marvel in a not bad area
S-sorry Tyrone DeShawn Washington the 3rd.
Where did I say any of that? That's what dumb people say which you admitted to being dumb so maybe that's what you want.
And say sorry to my cousin
I'll preorder the club sandwich.
>I don't see it being very appealing, especially given the very corporate and pushy reputation of GameStop so people would probably not feel comfortable relaxing and lounging there
Thank you, I was about to say that same kind of thing. You know that design was created by some corporate fuck who never played a video game in his life. It's so cold and sterile.
>At least you are honest the problem is people like you still vote. So things will just get worse and worse.
So tell me which ideas to vote for, o wise one. What is the right thing to do?
>They don't leave their house and are racist
>grow up, stupid, ignorant poltards
>they don't know what anything is like in the real world
the only person who seems to be out of touch is you. Go hang out in any majority black city in America, I have, most of the "ignorant racists" in America have. This idea that all the mean old racists are from fucking Wyoming is insane. Every racist person I have ever met is from a major city with a large African American population. The only ignorant anti-racists I meet are people who literally have ZERO black friends. I'm working class, I have black, asian, white, latino, all different kinds of friends and coworkers, but I'm also smart enough to realize the races are different, only a retard or a fool would think everyone is the same.
I am going to take a wild stab at the dark here and guess what the people on top are trying to do.
>Do these stupid tricks to keep investors confident
>The goal is survive a year to make it to new consoles

Fuck you I lived around blacks for about eight months at a trade school. That alone will turn you into a fucking Hitler worshipping nazi. I couldn't stand being around blacks once I got out.
If you want to have a discussion like that, make a /pol/ thread and link it and we can discuss it there. No need to be condescending because you lost.
This was never about winning and losing. I'm trying to figure you out. What does a win on Yea Forums do for me?
Relevant to inflation gamestop stock never been this low, looks how fast it been falling. I don't think a bump can save it a tiny bit cause if this trend goes on for another 6 months its over
Not smash bro, Saturn titles. There is no where to get together and play Saturn stuff anymore.

gamestop needs to try the internet cafe approach. Existing gamestops are already small so would make sense for a cafe/chill place
Don't be such pessimists. Obviously they're going to have a "Whites Only" policy. You don't open a social space like this and just let nogs run willy nilly around the place.
Holy fuck. Hitler was literally right about everything.
I don't know what you are trying to figure out, I made an argument and gave you facts to back it up and you said you were too dumb to refute it. This seems all pretty simple to me and clear cut.
I felt sad for Blockbuster closing but I don't really give a shit about gamestop. I hear they always treat employees like absolute trash.
Irresponsible parents will be dropping their feral crotchlings here for free babysitting while they "eat good" at the nearby casual chain restaurant.
All they need to do is say "Must purchase a snack every hour" and thats literally like a Whites Only sign.
You're leaving out the part where I ask, if you're right what is the next move?
If you say anything that slightly goes against what a manager says, they'll fucking blacklist you. Happened to me. I didn't understand what a district manager was saying about stock and the cock took that as me being disrespectful. Never been able to work there again since I was let go of my seasonal position, despite everyone else in charge at the store giving me high marks.
no we aren't.
How is it "if", I literally gave you stats?
shit how do I delete a comment?
>How is it possibly?
Because not every crime makes it into every statistic. For example, only around 60% of murders in the year 2017 were solved. If most of those murders were committed by whites due to our higher intellect, would that not change crime rates by race? Also, you keep saying crime, but that statistic is showing crimes with victims. I have Kodi playing right now. Would I ever be part of your statistic? You are making very broad assumptions based on very specific data.
You are correct. Black people commit the most violent crime.
Now what do we do about it?
Thats not the argument though. You are changing it because I shot your argument down. Here is what was actually said and if it's not you in case you pull that card, you still are inheriting that argument by defending it:
>Then again, big cities just create worse people overall.
So yea the stats posted kinda agree that some people are worse than others since we are talking about committing a crime in a gamestop. Pretty airtight and immune to the typical redit tricks you are now trying.
What household class level do you think those teens belong to? The upper middle.
Latinos too for the example I brought up.
So Game Stops are just gonna try becoming Japanese gaming cafes except they aren't willing to go all the way so in the end it's just a weird hybrid between gaming cafe and shitty store?
Blacks AND Latinos commit the most crime. What do we do about it? Are you too chickenshit to give your real answer? Gonna wait for the lock or 404? Run out the clock?
Whats Ironic is that those are dying in Japan as we speak so they are jumping on a dying trend
I already told you if you want to have that discussion make a /pol/ thread and link to it. Delete your post right away after doing so so you don't get accused of any bullshit i'll see it.
Are they dying because mobile shit is becoming more popular there, because they stopped living in little holes and are now living in actual houses big enough to hold a PC, because the games that they all played there (mainly League of Legends) are all dying, or because they just suck massive dick nowadays?
Nah pussy, I've come this far. You're gonna tell me right here without all your pals.
I don't know the whys just read about a lot of them closing. I will assume its because less people are being social.
Yep its a weird ass hybrid that don't feel comfy at all.
Not a pussy, we are going way off topic now and I don't want us to get banned for pushing it nor cluttering this thread up with any more off topic discussions. Make a thread. Also I don't need "friends" I schooled you remember and you admitted you were too dumb to refute me LOL.
And you're too scared to tell me your solution without me heading face first into the lion's den.
This is just the last few desperate spasms of a dying company. In five years they'll no longer exist.
Not at all. Make a /pol/ thread where it will be on topic, ignore everyone else but my id, I will not refer to anyone else in the thread and create the hugbox you desire and we can go from there. I will post a hulk hogan webm so you know it's me and /pol/ has IDs so you can focus on just my id. So at this point if you don't do that you would be the pussy here.
Black people aren't bad man, they are just different. They come from a different continent that had a very different lifestyle. Europeans and Africans are different. The only truly racist thing to do is force us all to live together and pretend we are the same. Let Africans have their own land and live how they want to live, not how stupid white liberals want them to live.
>Let Africans have their own land and live how they want to live
You mean like Liberia?
That won't stop the Florida man
>The HVAC filters are failing, sir! My suit has been compromised! I can smell it! Oh God it's awful! Let me out, sir! LET ME OUT! LET ME OUAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH
Exactly like Liberia. And this time close the door on the way out and never look back. Let them live their lives without our interference.
People are literally going to die at gamestop I pity anyone that works at a Chicago one and the gang fights they will now be in the middle of
Please follow along.
>me: big cities just create worse people overall
>you: * insert statistic about solved crimes for a random year in a random city*
>you: there must be a reason blacks and latinos are arrested more
Nothing to do with what I said but oh well.
>you: clearly some groups of people are worse in cities than others
>me: possibly, but here are some examples that aren't reflected in your statistics where either whites or asian's are responsible for nearly ALL crime in a city showing that it is possible for all races to be extremely shitty in a city environment
>you: i'm going to ignore your examples and go back to my very specific statistic
>me: here are other things that aren't included in your statistic, such as how we don't know who committed 40% of all murders in a single year. this is why your statistic is very limited in what it implies
I haven't changed arguments user. I explained my point and you kept ignoring it. Yes, blacks may possibly be worse in cities. It is certainly a possibility. Nothing you posted proves that as a fact though. Do crimes not happen in cities that are majorly one ethnicity like cities in Japan? Did Mafia's not rule cities and promote wide scale crime?
>typical redit tricks you are now trying
I've never visited reddit. What tricks am I supposedly pulling? It almost feels as if you are trying to make an argument for me when I haven't even been arguing with you. I'm trying to show you that you need more data before you can say something is clearly true instead of just being a possibility.
That's what I expected. Yeah, but no. This isn't right.
