Why? I thought Reggie retired because he wanted to be with his family since he barely had time to be with them since he was always working, It's clear to see that GameStop is getting desperate that they needed The Reggienator to save their sorry asses rather than getting their shit together.

The only way Gamestop can survive is if they start mainly distributing games digitally, but they'd need to score a deal with all the major game console makers (which shouldn't be hard for an industry man like Reggie) and make some platform for all these games to be bought and used for each console - think of it like Steam but not necessarily a "community" thing as it's unnecessary and just another roadblock.
Either that or make Gamestops a haven for selling old video games, but I have a feeling Gamestop probably survived this long by selling games they sharked out of the hands of desperate kids and clueless old ladies and then either selling them to scalpers or scalping the games themselves by jacking up the price 3000% and helping get ROM sites taken down as they are seen as competition

Foolish, but interesting. The future of retail will be digital, any physical goods you buy can be obtained from online. The overhead of running a brick and mortar store (rent, logistics) is unreal. Warehouses and cottage sellers will be the way to go.
For example, how many games have digital releases? Why buy at Walmart when you can buy it from your local Amazon online? Why buy third party when you can just get a game from Steam, GoG, or the developers directly? How much fucking salesfloor space of Gamestop is dedicated to toys and accessories rather than the game itself?
Accessories themselves are a toxic asset, as soon as the game or trend stops being relevant, they tie up capital that could be used on more fluid industry. Gamestop has no future.

From what little I've checked, less than elsewhere at times, but not by very much. Probably also depends on the game in question. Gamestop is not averse to scalping; this is the company that got a reprint of Xenoblade Wii, unwrapped them, marked them as preowned, and tried selling them for a whopping $90 each when they'd have gotten them ordered for $40 or $50. Only thing Gamestop is particularly good for is previous gen stuff (which is increasingly disc/cart only for PS3/360/Wii/3DS at present) at lowish prices before they phase it out of their brick and mortar stores, and about the only thing I'll give them credit for is having a website that actually lets one see which locations are carrying what, but even that's a crapshoot since it's prone to false positives.
>Why buy third party when you can just get a game from Steam, GoG, or the developers directly?
Because it can cheaper than digital platforms where the publisher can charge full price as long as it wants? Granted, I'm not speaking in defense of Gamestop specifically, but it's kind of weird to see a game that's managing an aftermarket price of like $12 still being sold digitally at a full price fifty half a decade since releasing. And that's without the further justification that digital-only releases give publishers, where there is no physical aftermarket to compete against to begin with.
Gamestop, Walmart, Best Buy, and especially Target are all indeed shit for vidya though. But at least with other game stores around here that aren't those, on occasional I can manage to find things for much, much less than on Amazon or Ebay, and ability to actually confirm the condition of what I'm looking at, rather than rely on a seller description or photos (of which sometimes neither are provided, or providable in the case of vendors that send their good to Amazon warehouses for storage) is another plus.

this isn't nearly as common an option as you're making it out to be
Most midsize devs or larger (read: faggots) just do a Steam release and call it quits for PC, and many indies as well
pisses me the fuck off since often there's no way of me supporting a PC release without supporting that de facto monopolistic cancer.
Much of your post is on the money, and logically is what I think will happen at the end of the day.
I am curious to see how long they'll stave off death though. If they can last at least 3/4 of the way through the next generation, I'd call it a success for them at this point honestly.
>Why buy at Walmart when you can buy it from your local Amazon online?
Gamestop and Best Buy often had shit like limited/exclusive shit to come with your game's LEs and whatnot. One can also easily get games in the same day if a Gamestop is on your travel routes, which it often can be since they litter the landscape in stores. Plus, the tech-illiterate people who are scared of online ordering (a large sum of mothers and fathers) have reason to go there. Though obviously that number has been decreasing over time.
They're also better for pre-owned shit in terms of prices than places like Ebay (overpriced with scalpers running amok), and especially Amazon (often worse used quality goods) . I've bought plenty of shit from them at more than reasonable prices.

Remember that Reggie is the reason that shit happened in the first place. He refused to publish the title in the US, NOE ended up localising it (thank god) and only then once he had a complete version dumped on him did he permit a limited run physical release solely through Gamestop.
Reggie is no saviour.

GameStop has as much, if not more, video game related merchandise than it does actual video games so I guess he trying to jump on that bandwagon while it's hot. People can get video games anywhere now that digital downloads are a thing so he's probably going to turn it into a one-stop-shop for figurines, collectibles, and clothing while downplaying hardware and exchanges.

I don't really have an issue with GameStop, myself. Then again, I never tried to sell a fucking thing through them - because I'm not a mouth-breathing trailer trash redneck trying to make a few extra bucks to round up his meth deal to the nearest gram. Like it or not, they are one of the few last bastions of physical media out there, and if you like owning games but don't want to support the companies making them - then they made a decent pseudo-piracy route which (yeah, you still had to pay) denied sales to publishers while still giving you a physical copy.
You can inspect the merchandise before you leave, so unless you're buying hardware, you can see what it is you're buying before you're stuck with the product (unlike second-hand online retailers), and if you're not happy with the case (a lot of them are broken and chewed up) - there's a chance you could always just raise a little fuss and swap out for another one. Replacement cases are easy enough to get online anyhow. One of my biggest problems with them was their fucking stickers that always tore - leaving the adhesive premenantly stuck to the case, but it's been years since they've used those old style pricing stickers. At least in my local shop.
They will try to fuck you on pre-orders and will flat out lie about their inventory in order to get you to put a bit more cash down, but you're not supposed to pre-order anyhow so who fucking cares. If anything, I'd say my biggest criticism of them right now is the absolute hit or miss quality of their refurbished units, which hasn't really improved much since the fire-hazard bandaids they used to slap into old 360 consoles. Some of those were even put back out there without the mainboard brace, ensuring that the first time it got even slightly above room temperature, your board would start to curl up and twist - busting all those patch-job solder points right back off. Beyond that… they really don't have much of a selection of niche titles anymore. Used to be you could get all kinds of Japanese titles and AA fare, but lately they've been focusing pretty heavily on AAA shit and games they know will sell. I understand why they'd need to do that in their present state - but it's still less of a reason for me to buy from them.
Most of GameStops problems are really not issues so long as you're not a complete fucking retard when dealing with them. Some people have even made decent profits by exploiting their terrible business models. The only unforgivable sin they engage in is the wholesale destruction of game disks they deem unprofitable. They'll literally shred anything that they don't think they can sell, or that they have an excess of - and it's something you can't avoid, no matter how you game their system.

Though I did notice you forgot to take the "Actual Economics" class and remember the important lesson that convenience is everything, and Gamestop can make a lot of money by buying used shit. Surely you, in all your mastery of business, would realize that they could even sell the games cheaper in large quantities than the first-party platforms?

Don't expect to get any notable title in good shape. Like, for the prices they charge for them, the condition of the games NEVER match up. It's always loose, and always in SHIT condition if it's anything older than 360/PS3/Wii. I mean absolutely unplayable, DRE's at the menu condition.

Friend that's worked with shipping various things over the years says they're stupidly popular with normalfags, as if they needed more reason to hate funko than them just being low-effort templateshit. And going off the multimedia shops around where I live, there's plenty of people buying them around here too. It's reached the point they might as well be mandatory in every game or media shop to some degree, whether it's a a handful someone traded in used, or an entire 20x12 feet of wall space of new ones straight from the factory.

A state they caused themselves. Seriously, at one point, there were about ten Fucking Gamestops here within a five mile radius, to the point they choked out every other game store in town, before the oversaturation forced them to cut back as well. Thankfully the surrounding towns are in easy driving distance due to gridlock and have more non-Gamestop stores, though it can be a crapshoot as to which are actually decent and which are just going to take advantage of the local artificial scarcity of when gamestop stops stocking for a system in-store.

One game store a few towns over has a small arcade of sorts in the back of both consoles and cabinets they do tournaments in, and also rent out ability to play the games they stock in store using said systems in the back by the hour. Combined with selling snacks, I honestly think they make most of their money that way, and on Friday and Saturday nights, when they're open late, it's pretty loud from the back.

That's because stock values growth more than stable income. If your company isnt growing, its failing hard in the eyes of investors. This growth-at-any-cost is the big reason you see companies soar, over-extend, and then completely crash and declare bankruptcy within a 10 year span. It's not enough for a company to make a profit, it cannot be allowed to stagnate or plateau, less the shrimp dick investors get scared and dump all their shares.
Publically trading your company is a fucking retarded decision and has almost never ended well. It's like passing liberum veto. Sure, you get a ton of benefits/capital to play with, but it will always come back to haunt you.

If it helps, I think it was in a half-off clearance sale if I'm remembering right, so someone lost money on it. Though, do retailers just wind up writing the loss off on their own end in order to clear storage space, or can they get force a partial refund on the publisher if shit doesn't move well?

>Also, and I guess unrelated, what the fuck is a Funko?
Mass produced templateshit figures, and apparently the fags that buy them are prone to cry persecution by figma/nendo fans who call them out on how shit their taste is. I suppose they're happy to put up with it in cases there aren't any other cheap merch for a work, and in order to signal their interests to others. Glad none of the series I like are the sort to be popular enough here to warrant the treatment.
Fuck's sake, Gamestop even puts out a Funko newsletter.

I went to one some years back, when they still had actually unsold, cased DS games, and the cashier went on a /v/irgin-esque spergout over how the DS was "a Pokemon system with nothing else of merit or interest going for it". I don't know why he though I was going to be receptive when it was a DS game I was picking out (one I couldn't find elsewhere and has since crawled to about $140 complete). Other issues I've had wound up being a manager offering to shrink wrap a beat up, store bicycle "new" copy of a game I was looking to give someone as a gift (fuck that), and a copy of Coraline that looked to have been jizzed on, as if a further sign they'll take anything if the disc or cart looks apt to read.

He must be paid a lot of money to be a figurehead for a dying company. He would've been better off as being the new CEO of Disney but I guess he wouldn't like fighting against Nintendo since they are teamed up with Universal. Money's money so I guess he doesn't care that much since there is no way to save a company on the brink of death. Just like the comic industry, Gamestop is too far gone to make a turnaround because of the many bridges that they've burned.

corona will just end up like the flu, it's really a non-issue.
retail is the nail in the coffin, and there is simply no way to make gamestop attractive enough to give people a reason to go there. no one is gonna drive into town to pick up a game when get just can get it shipped to you, and even if they go deep into the used marked like some bumblefucks recommend it will turn out even worse because they simply can't hold that stock locally. so why would you got to gamestop to pick up a game they need to get shipped to the store instead of shipping it directly to you? same for all the nu-nerdshit like funkos and shirts.
it would also require to have actual knowledgeable staff so they know what they're buying off people, and good luck finding those for a shit job like retail and for the pennies retail/gamestop pays.
the only way if they go with that is closing stores left and right and focus on online, but how would you make it easy for people trade shit in then? and it's probably not something gamestop is willing to do, given how they still try to hold on to the good years where their retail part at least made some money, as shit as it was - and the same retards that got themselves into the current situation still run the show.
oh, and boardgames and shit are no option either, since those require floorspace most gamestops simply don't have (and it's not like FLGS aren't affected by retail dying either).
gamestop is on their way out, the whole model was living on borrowed time from the start and they squandered every chance to at least prolong their viability.

The first year of Corona could be enough to drive a dying business like Gaystop to the point of no recovery.
While dealing physical goods is one of Gaystop's biggest issues another was losing the support of publishers with their used game practices. I'm thinking they might have to drop it entirely and open an online store like Amazon while doing their best to stay in the good graces of publishers for exclusive deals. There will be a market for physical games even pubs push for digital and if Reggie managesto keep Gaystop as another physical games dealer I'd be happy. The only problem with that would be competing with Amazon but GoG manages to be alive in the age of Steam so it could happen.

None of these are accidental, they are all part of their business strategy, even having few employees at any given time, which is a classic cost cutting policy.
The only thing that is more convent about gamestop over digital distribution is that you don't have to download the full game before you can play it, but this is undermined by the fact that most games have day 1 patches now.
As for them making a lot of money selling used shit, they always end up with a shitload of unsellable games that they purchased because old games more of then not depreciate very fast these days due to the emphasis on online multiplayer over single player content.

They didn't. They realised that casualfags and normalcunts don't care about quality and base all their purchashing decisions on marketing, brand recognition, and peer pressure and now they're rolling in more cash than everyone on this board combined will see in their entire lives. Why spend the extra time and money to make good figures when you can just copy paste onto a generic boring statue in the laziest most halfassed way possible?
I lost faith in humanity when I was in my local comic shop about 10 or so years ago, and I saw a group of 13-5 year old walk in. They walked past all the comics. All the action figures. All the manga. All the board games. All the model kits and hobby stuff… And went straight to the Funko wall of shame. They were so excited. "I want this one, and this one, and this one. Oh this is going to be expensive." That was when I realised all hope is lost.

Except Gamestop themselves are scalpers when it comes to older/hard to find games. It's just that prices elsewhere can be quite high on their own, so they only have to undercut by just a little bit to get traffic, while the consumer gets negligible savings.

More of $5 up front. They don't get to raise the price above what the company at hand can charge. Just saying. Though, even doing that is sometimes a waste of money on occasion when they sell a game to someone that didn't preorder, or an employee decides he wants it more and can pass it off as "we didn't get shipped enough."

Haven't really ran across that situation myself, that I know of. Though I wouldn't be surprised, because there's been a number of times when I've gone in to get a game on the day of release and they pull the artificial scarcity card. The clerk will tell me they only got a few copies in and they're all, except for one or two, reserved in preorder. They'll make a big show of going in the back to "Search for a spare copy" and really make it look like they're doing you a solid - but you can see inside the drawers they're opening behind the counter. When I went in to get the Yakuza Collection last month, they pulled the same thing. Was told there were only 3 shipped to the store, and two were pre-ordered. When he went to the back to check the inventory again, a clerk helping another customer went to pull something from the drawers behind the counter and you could plainly see the spines of at least 8 or 10 copies.
And of course, when the clerk "discovered" a spare copy in the back, they really hammed up the sales pitch for the extended warranty and pro-membership benefits.

What is the point of that whole song and dance if you've got proof of having pre-ordered? Or do you mean that you just went in for a regular launch day shelf copy, and they were trying to make a big deal of "you should have preordered"? I certainly wouldn't put it past them to just straight up lie to customers: Yakuza isn't all that niche anymore, especially when as I've heard it, they were promoting the PS4 collection on their store TVs and using the whole "relocalized" aspect to entice people despite the censorship I've heard it had.
But I've certainly heard that sort of tale before myself, but more in the case of actually niche games where if a given location didn't get at least one or two preorders, they wouldn't put in for ANY copies. Odin Sphere Leifthrasir for example (at least on the PS3; not sure how Vita and PS4 versions sold in comparison). And I've also seen some anons in years (maybe a decade now, really) past saying their necks of the wood never got any copies of particular games because no one at the time had any interest, so none got shipped there. Really though, it's cases like those where preorders would actually have merit: games with limited appeal and audience, not AAA or yearly SPOATS trash that obviously they're going to order tons of even just as shelf fodder and of which there's going to be no real hassle to find even a week or two after launch, and likely not even near full price anymore by then either. Though, it should be worth mentioning that unless a staggered overseas release, preordering anything still leaves one subject to being a guinea pig, and for Japanese developed games (where most staggered releases tend to occur, at least in NA), localization quality is often in the shitter, so I suppose it's more a theoretical merit.
Also the issue of digital distribution making publishers just not want to run more physical prints past the initial one, as digital copies let them better control profits, and if the physical aftermarket surpasses the asked $40/$60, then it makes the digital version all the more enticing. Assuming the game even saw a physical release in the first place.
>>16871560
Because they have this fucking logic that "new" only means "unsold"/"unplayed". And even then the latter isn't always the case, as I've heard of people buying gutted "new" copies of games from stores and finding save files already on the cartridges because an employee borrowed it.
