Yes, the Mall of the Americas in Miami is always packed and they recently expanded. They're thinking about tearing it down and building a new mall that would be the biggest in the world.

Not yet. They've actually quite adeptly made the transition from physical games (which are obviously a dying specimen) to 'gamer merch', like LOOK AT ME I PLAY VIDEOGAMES t-shirts and hundreds of those fucking malformed little Funko Pop statues. Seriously, I walk into the GameStop near my work and it's just walls of t-shirts, walls of Funkos, walls of gaming accessories (headsets, controllers, etc.) and then a basket in the middle of the floor with preowned XB360 games in it. They've adapted to the growth of online shopping better than some of their competitors, but that's not saying much.
>>
>GameStop profits are falling
>Share prices are falling with XBOX game pass announcements

>They're bringing "Zing!" stores to America to try and cash in on notmies buying "geeky" shit

What went so wrong?
>>
>>379828957
GameStop stopped getting my money years ago because new releases stopped being sealed unless you got them on launch day. Once they stopped having cheap PSP games for me to collect I stopped going. Amazon solidified my decision once Prime started giving you 20% off new releases.
>>
>>379828957

Pretty much. All the stores around me have downsized. They all have less second hand games on offer too so people must be buying more digitally.
>>
>>379829745

That's fair, but that's an exception to the rule.

Mall of America is a tourist attraction you dolt.

Malls that don't have the luxury of being a tourist destination we going down left and right because the stores in them can't compete with online vendors and when the big stores like Sears and JC Penney close up in them, that spells doom for the entire mall itself.
>>
>>379830248

In Phoenix, we have this mall called Metro. Bout a decade ago, probably a little ealier than that, white flight started to kick in. Stores would shut down, and the ones that replaced them weren't even English lmao (rip arcade). Now, they're trying to put the anchors as groceries like walmart to pander to the new economic class down there. Until the border, or a better system of vetting comes along, we are fucked in Phoenix.

Even arrowhead was going down the shitter, but they've done a good job at keeping it looking nice for da whites.

Gamestop converted the space that was previously occupied by physical PC games into a "collectibles section" that sells FNAF shirts, Minecraft swords, Halo Mega Bloks, Funko pop trash, and Walking Dead bumper stickers (among other things)

They also deal in phones and electronics now too. There's also a rumor now they're partnering with Amazon to allow Gamestop credit be used towards Amazom purchases and vice versa (doubt it's true)

However when it comes to games and hardware Best Buy and Amazon destroy them. Not to mention Microsoft and Sony's bigger push on digital games this gen hurting them too.

You haven't dealt with normies in America.

Imagine you're a 30-something with your mild recession paycheck and after working 40-50 hours that week you go to the mall. Everywhere you look there are big huddles of high school guys who run up and find some way to fuck with you to impress the vapid girls they're with. You walk into FYE and browse their selection of movies they bought from people who they knew stole them but they're still flipping normal blu-rays for $40. You want anime'? $70 for one of those old DVDs with 2 episodes on it. Go to the arcade and there's a crowd of people occupying the only machine you want to play, for 3 hours. Why not just play games at home? Go to the food court and you have to eat your food surrounded on all sides by the same kind of jack-offs that fucked with you earlier. Why not just make your own food or go to a drive-thru or sit in a booth at a real restaurant for the same price as the shitty greasy mall food? They have a food place in just about every mall where they serve nothing but fries and dried-out corn dogs. You'll be walking around and people will come up to you asking for change... Not homeless people, but THE SAME FUCKING ASSHOLES YOU HATE SEEING THERE EVERY TIME. The rent for the shops is so damn high that everything costs three times as much and as the malls empty the prices just go up to compensate for lost sales. There are kiosks where these rat bastards run up to you and try to sell you $500 plastic sunglasses or magic beauty sand... Sometimes they try to paint your fucking nails, even if you're a man.

tl;dr The shops are bad but the people are just suffocatingly obnoxious. Stay away from American malls.

Mine still has PC games, but they aren't on display. They also have PS2 games but since they don't accept new ones iirc there are pretty slim pickings (i would estimate 35 percent of the PS2 bin are old Maddens alone)

Looked like it says Hot Titties under PC games.

The holiday season is usually a big deal for us just like any other business, except this past one was one of our worst on record. My store usually benefits greatly from people coming in to buy last gen consoles and games. We usually sell out of ALL of our PS3 and Xbox units as its either all low income families can afford or parents just want a cheap gift. PS3 goes first when we tell them you don't have to pay for online services, then the Xbox when we still have bundles left. You would be surprised how many just buy 3 Call of Duty games and call it a day.

The fact that i can get a new game on Amazon for half the price Gamestop asks for a used one.

Maybe they should just turn into a warehouse service or some shit and just deliver?

>and talk shit about their customers behind their backs.
They do this constantly.

I used to go to this mall all the time as a kid, they had one of the best arcades ever. Batlletoads, Super Mario World, Super Basball 2020, the Simpsons game and a shitload of others, it closed down back in 1999

Why go to gamestop when you can get the same game instantly via download or if you want a physical copy. Then you can get it on Amazon for same price as GameStop.

Cheaper actually. Prime gives you a 10% discount on new games. They also have gaurenteed release date deliveyr.

I'm going to gamestop later today. Should i get xcom 2 or preorder Stormblood. Consider the fact that i'll only be able to afford one month of sub time.
