As much as it pains me to say this, using Gamestop as a meter for used game sales is a bad one. Their proportional used sales have less to do with a stagnant market and more to do with poor trade in values and overpriced used games. Stores and websites are more aggressive with their prices. This does lead to a bigger market for used gaming. The flaw in this argument is that Gamestop's used market isn't growing, that doesn't mean the market as a whole isn't growing.

Where are Reese and Finch? This looks like an episode of "Person of Interest."

@DeFiLeDTitan Walmart also does swarm over me the moment I walk in the door. Walmart doesn't try to ram more products down my throat while I shop or checkout. Walmart doesn't try to milk every last dollar out of grandparents that don't know any better.

I'm pleased to see Gamestop suffer. The methods they use to sell games and systems is morally bankrupt.

People are getting smarter to their tactics and taking their business elsewhere.

Excellent point and good article. I completely agree.

My 8 bit Nintendo got me through many a lonely weekend. If it wasn't for gaming, I would have committed suicide a long time ago. Thank you Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft.

Does anyone really watch the 5 hour pre-game show? And if so, what is wrong with you? Thank God Fox doesn't have the Super Bowl. No one should have to spend 5+ hours listening to Terry Bradshaw. I'm all for giving people with disabilities a chance, but did Fox really need to add someone slightly retarded to its pregame show?

Let's not forget we still have Gameboy owners out there! I love playing a game of Monopoly while it's raining out side.
