LOL @ Gamestop trying to get into the retro game scene

According to IGN, Gamestop is trying to get back into selling retro games via a pilot program in New York City and Birmingham, Alabama. I have several things to say about this...

1.) Birmingham, Alabama? That seems a bit random... Is that the location of the corporate HQ?

2.) You're doing a pilot program in those 2 cities and you still have 250 locations participating?! Maybe you have too many locations, guy...

3.) Good luck competing with the independent retro game stores. They are firmly entrenched, take just about ANYTHING they can get and offer MUCH better trade-in values than you ever did.

4.) Seriously, you can't compete with independent retro game stores like Play Raven or Digital Press. Your brand name is shite with us gaming collectors. We know what kind of horrible people you are, Shitbag.

5.) I won't buy from GameStop for ANY reason. What they sell used, I can usually find at Wal-Mart BRAND NEW for less money. And since the only GameStop I know of that's close to me is just a mere 200 yards away from the local Wally World...

6.) I could swear they tried this before a few years ago with some online program from their website. It died quickly when they got retarded enough to try to sell loose cartridges of Super Mario Bros. on the NES for $50. (LOL @ those idjits for not even bothering to check what those carts are really worth...)

7.) And of course, there's the rest of my thoughts/opinions of those guys in meme form...




















Seriously , though...




Fuck Gamestop. I will stick to Amazon & Play Raven. I have spoken!
