So it is basically what gamestop was likes when they first opened.
This is so interesting because for the past few years my GameStop locations kept all the PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, and Xbox 360 stock. All you had to do was ask them to print out a sheet and they’d show you the list of what they had on hand and then they’d open a drawer and pull it out for you to purchase. It didn’t go further back than that though, only recently have I seen older games being put out.
It is surprising it took them this long to figure out that people still want to buy retro games. I actually haven't stepped foot in GameStop for over a decade and probably still won't, but it is interesting that they decided to finally tap into the retro game market (even though it seems pretty lackluster from what you've mentioned).
I'd rather show my support for a local mom and pop retro game store. Well, at least one that isn't actively trying to price gouge you for its games.
Please GameStop Retro, I really hope you sell a variety of CIB physical copies of old school classic retro video game titles on N64, GameCube, Wii, GB/GBC, GBA, DS, 3DS, Sega Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP!! Please make this happen (like what GameStop used to do back then before 2012)!! I'm definitely planning on go to these stores so I can embrace and relive the nostalgia!! 🎮🕹👾🤘🤟✌😌😊🤗😄😎👍🤙☯✨❤💛💙💯
GameStop didn't even know what they were doing before this. And still don't.
Do you live near Jacob R? You showed the exact copy of The Legend of Dragoon he bought at 2:58. The smudge is exactly on the "T" of the Greatest Hits that he shows in his video. Go to 6:15 on his video "Gamestop should be ASHAMED of their New Retro Store". Unless you both use each other's videos, then nevermind lol
@ryanpeterson3300 Yeah I guess he must live nearby
The GameStop near me, two of them does have retro games, but mostly seven gen and Wii U but it’s on a rack
Wingstop next to GameStop is WILD!
All the Retro Gamestop locations look about to have always the same games; those already ported to modern systems or those available on platform subscription services. And it is sad!
I remember my friends sending me the announcement on instagram being hyped about it. Meanwhile me seeing this is like “damn, the downfall of mom & pop shops shall begin 😔” I’m not excited for this but hopefully Gamestop will learn its lesson & becoming better with this venture than its previous screw ups 💀
You have to ask the register if they have carts they aren't putting them on the shelves due to theft I've heard.
Good to know, thanks 👍
WHINY BABY GAMERS BE THANKFUL THEY ARE STILL THERE GD WHINY BABIES
Drop a Wah in the comments if you're a whiny baby gamer
But they have been doing for a long time all you had to do was ask they kept all older games in the drawters
They dont have much retro titles and never will because they dont know a thing about retro gaming except that its huge right now. They dont actually want to put any effort into selling it or doing research on there worth, except what the titles go by on eBay. Which is not what they're worth to begin with. Dude you gotta look upmom and pop video game stores. They know everything about retro gaming, what the games are worth. And there passionate about all the retro titles and consoles. There's a game retro store I went to a couple of years ago. And found the very gamecube RE4 you purchased. I got mine for $10. No offense but that GameStop saw you coming. Ha. But anyway bottom line, its not gonna last with GameStop doing this. They already failed one at trying to sell them online. And they will fail again with these locations carrying some of them. Because again, they dont know what they're doing. They have no knowledge about this games, except that its popular and they go by eBay prices and make the prices higher. A mom and pop video game store doesnt do that.
What if I want, tho? 🤨
At least you saved on shipping
Well = ⛽️ gas
I always preferred funcoland
7th gen is retro old timer
Darn modern youths and their newfangled Switch OLEDs
7th gen is NOT retro.
Gamestop is a joke.....and always been...buy a brand new game for 60 and gamestop will give ya 20 dollars for it only five days later them resell for 54.99..
Its disappointing that they're selling gta 3 Vice City and San Andreas in those cases that are clearly the collection cases. Those aren't stand alone boxes and ppl collecting and buying retro will probably never buy that..
I'm good I will just use my emulators can't wait for them to close though.
Pmo bro
Hopefully, companies will start doing what Nintendo does and shut down emulator websites. “Look at meee I’m playing Mario 64 on my Steampad.” Or whatever tf that Nintendo switch wannabe is called.
@@ChirpyCrisp That will never happen there will be another site right back up😂😂😂 cope harder
