I bet you havent been to a video game store in years. Physcial games are dying and you are part of the problem.
>>750262678I can't go to a vidya store because they all died and the one still open is 90% funko pops.
>>750262678good, let them die.
>>750262719>and the one still openso they didnt all die.
>>750262738Wow so smart!!
>>750262678I've actually been to this store IRL. Nice place. They used to sell me games ahead of street date
I have. Basically 2 versions>Gamestoponly funko pop shit. Almost no games now.>Local game storeExtremely overpriced. Looking for an old gameboy game? That will be a minimum $100. For 1 game. And even the newest switch games are like $10 more expensive than Walmart or Amazon for some reasonIf you go to a japan store in NY though you can find old games cheap. Like $15 for a gameboy game instead of $100. They don't treat everything like a precious collector item. Although it's harder to find english copies but they do have some.
>>750262719The local mom and pop is doing great because they do a lot of magic/Pokemon and the other other "local" one is basically an internet culture landmark (Digipress)
>>750263062my local gamestop that was there for over 20 years closed recently. now its a verizon store
>>750263062A lot of mothball old lady estate sale/consignment shops have games. The boomers can't tell the difference between a ps2/360 game and a dvd so you find some bangers for $3
I have a bigger physical game collection than anyone in this thread, and I didn't buy a single one from a physical game store
>>750263275>I have a bigger physical game collection than anyone in this threadprove it fag
>>750262678I just visited one back in late 2003.The ones in my home town went under years ago.
>>750263464SMELLS LIKE VIRGIN
>>750263492That's my wife's collection.
>>750263643Yea right
>>750262678Game stores suck now. All the good ones went out of business years ago and the ones remaining sold out to TCG flippers and autists. The ones that even remotely care about /v/ are extremely overpriced and even mark up brand new games too. I buy all my physical games off Amazon, eBay, and a few specialized release sites like Limited Run Games and Play Asia now.
