    They shut down a lean legacy operation like GI but dump money into this bullshit?

    I love retro gaming. There’s no way I will be buying from GS. The markups alone will be ridiculous.

      Didn’t click the article I am assuming this more of a concept store like they did in Milan, which is more of a flagship type locations.

      Strip mall suburban ghetto locations can’t turn a profit it seems due to costs and competition.

      Physical retial ain’t gong away, I think it is shifting into more dense areas as destinations.

      Also, ain’t all retro gaming is now just collectibles that rich milennails swap?

      Saw a thread there recently about how person sold their nice collection due to economic needs then whne he tried to retner the market, it was lime the housing market today 🫠

      Shoulda bought in 2015 when you had no money 🤡

        didn’t click the article

        Then go read it before speculating? The answer is literally right there. Your entire comment is based on not having information that is right in front of you lmao

            That doesn’t mean you have to comment on things you didn’t read and derail the conversations of those who did. You directly contradicted me without knowing the source material even though the answer is literally right in front of you. You’re being obnoxious. Just lurk and read the comments if that’s your intention. Don’t start throwing out uninformed takes and disagreeing with people on no basis.
