    My local stores sell steam games and PC parts, I don’t think you understand the business model… When was the last time you visited a store?

        Oh yeah the trading card business too, plus all the homewares now. Currently eating dumplings out of a pokemon licenced bowl manufactured by gamestop

          Good luck man. What happened last time they got a huge influx of cash from retail traders? From what I read they wasted it in NFTs.

          Now they’re wasting it on trading cards. The company is floundering. Surviving purely from generational nostalgia at this point. When that runs out the rug will be pulled.

            They never bought NFTs, they built a website for trading NFTs. Very minimal expense that’s already written off as it got banned by the US govt

              Fair enough they didn’t outright buy NFTs. They attempted to enter the market and failed. It’s still a loss. And I’m not feeling great about the trading card idea. But hey we’ll see, maybe it works out for them this time.
