Amazon has made all that shit irrelevant When it comes to specialty stores I imagine more and more will be disappearing. Price is relevant to 90% of Americans to at least some degree. If I can buy X game new on ebay for $20 rather than used at a local store for $15 I will, just because it's new. However I do try to support a local chain of stores here in the midwest that sells video game, comics, music, movies, toys, card games, sports cards, and some books too. Places like Walmart and large grocery chains are offering to shop for you, and either deliver or you can pick up your groceries. So even brick and mortar stores are giving people one less reason to leave their home. --- I think I need a drink.

Walmart, Gamestop, Target, etc.. all adapted to the times meanwhile other stores want to stay the same</quote> Gamestop isn't doing good, they have been having lots of troubles unless something has changed recently. Walmart and Target are general stores. I think the thing to look into is specialty shops surviving.</quote> Gamestop is just a thinkgeek storefront now</quote> Too bad they can't do the same for NewEgg or something. Turn back into the Babbages and Software Etc they devoured all those years ago.</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Like the founder of Amazon who was born in the 60s. fucking millenials.... Seriously what is up with gen-xrs who have absolutely zero concepts of accountability and are just overgrown crybabies? Same thing that was up with the traditionalist, boomers, gen x, millenials and gen z soon. Every generation blames the one before. And all of their frustrations come beating on your door. So soon to the gen z you will be the insufferable millenials that did everything wrong and made society miserable for them too. I don't blame gen x for whatever struggles I have to face in society excluding how much they complain. Like either you can be the type of people who accept they have to face struggles grit down and do something about it or you can be gen x and complain about how hard the generation before them made the world for them and how much the generations after them suck. I like to ask myself what the great or silent generation would think of them for how much they complain and I can't imagine their opinion of gen x would be great. I didn't mean that as a personal accusation toward you. Just that in general people in generations tend to blame the generation before or after for the condition of society. So it's nothing new that millenials are under attack now. Sorry if I came off the wrong way. --- I think I need a drink.

I still think its a good idea to adapt since psychical video game sales are probably declining, but becoming the Funko Pop store doens't seem to be helping them at the moment. --- We all live in a Yellow SUV! a Yellow SUV! <cite>YellowSUV posted [p:897492079] in Rumor has ...
