I went to a local Gamestop earlier this year to buy a new PS3 controller, but before that, I think my last time was in 2014.

I used to spend an hour or more at a time in Electronics Boutique in the 90s.

Yesterday. Just for them to tell me they only got pre-order copies of the game I wanted. So I went to Walmart across the street and bought it. I was actually at Walmart first and decided to toss Gamestop a bone. But next time Im just doing what's more convenient for me.

I still visit my local indie store that does imports and rare/collectible stuff from time to time, but even then I pretty much only buy digital now LOL

Walked in to one a few days ago on a whim to buy Death Stranding. They tried to pull their "we're sold out everywhere should have pre-ordered it" nonsense so I told them I'd buy it on the PSN store and left.

That was the same game they didn't have for me. They didn't tell me it was sold out everywhere tho. They were honest about being understocked. I already knew that were at Walmart so that would of backfired anyway

Couple months.

Been probably over a year since the last time I actually bought something though.

These days I have a very particular wishlist. You kinda have to when you're short on spare time.

In my case by "everywhere" I mean they did their store lookup to see if any other Gamestops in the area had any copies in stock, but I don't know how far our their search goes so "everywhere" might have just been like every Gamestop within 10 miles or something.

A few months ago to trade in a few games an old roommate left behind, in order to get Control. Apparently they won't take sealed games so I still have a new copy of fractured but whole I can't get rid of because I have no plans to go back to a Gamestop any time soon; especially not to get 4 bucks out of it. -_-
