how do they make money though

internet cafes at least sell food

>the zoomers will save gamesstop

I can't imagine every GameStop doing this. Every place that I knew had areas where you could play some games were ultimately destroyed by niggers and spics.

If gamestop sold more food and snacks than they do now they would just make more money

Gamestop should just try and become a chain LGS brand

>ultimately destroyed by niggers and spics
lol this. those little zoomers in the op are already dead, they just dont know it

imagine the smell

Having worked retail in an alright area, people were still disgusting as fuck and would make all kinds of messes. Those set-ups along with the couch/console area are going to be fucking gnarly.

>go to trade in games at gamestop and play on a pc
>get 50 cents and coronavirus
Alright

Wonder how many people are going to get caught jerking it to porn at these places.

Wait, is this actually what GameStop is doing now? That's kind of neat. I mean, all that equipment will be filthy if not broken in about a year because they'll probably be too cheap-ass to maintain it properly, but in theory it's pretty cool.

Just do it for free at the library lmaoooo

So that's what Gamestop is doing now.....becoming a daycare center?

>implying it wasn't already a daycare center

you ever been to a mall gamestop before? parents drop off their kids there and leave them. some return, some don't, some kids walk out with pedos because nobodies fucking watch them it's not the employees job.

Babysitting 12 year olds from the looks of it

>every monitor angled down for children
kek

Thanks for letting everyone know about my hotspot, FUCK

Imagine being so poor you go to an internet cafe.

The old business model of selling physical game copies is dead. They have to do something else or go out of business. Personally I don't think it will work as internet/gaming cafes are not popular in the US. Maybe in a couple of coastal cities.

Also what the other user said, niggers and wetbacks will destroy them. There's a reason countries without those races actual have internet cafes.

Whatever happened to that retro store Gamestop idea?

Finally, I can become a Real Streamer. Thank you GameStopTM. Power To The PlayersTM.

America is a gigantic place compared to Japan. Lots of places are within walking or short bike distance compared to having to drive everywhere here in America.

>it's not the employees job.
you're goddamn right. 95% of the kids dropped off like this are shitheads anyway. I wish them good luck with their friendly predator.

they won't, Gamestop will be dead soon

>"Sure thing bro. Don't mind me, just pirating this monitor"

you sell time. the old internet cafe in my hometown did it something like this
>10 dollars for an hour
>15 for 2 hours
>20 for 2 hours and soda/chips
>30 for 3 hours and better food provided
>40 for 3 hours, food and shit, and a random booster pack of your choosing at the store (pokemon, MTG, yugioh, Blizzards actual TCG, etc)
They were always fully booked and had card and tabletop tourneys every weekend

It's a smart change and it's about ten years too late. The writing has been on the wall for bulk used game sales for a long time. The concept of selling gaming stuff in a space that's also a netcafe is a strong one, but GameStop's locations aren't built for this and they've spent the past decade pissing customers off so good luck lmao.

They merged it into their netcafe concept store, it's kind of sad

The same reason arcades, and mall culture in general died. Americans aren't interested in driving out of their way just to play video games, unless they can drink beer there which limits your audience to the +21 crowd

>Golden Tee 1up Cab
Disgusting

At least they have fucking huge sony trinitrons

Yeah, it's an idea some other company will look at with enough capital to weather a down year and work towards. Less and less people can afford a lot of vidya, and less and less people have the space for that sort of shit because no one can afford a fucking house anymore, so these sorts of locations could be interesting. I'd hit up a place within a ten minute drive if I could mess around with VR stuff.

In the Warcraft 3 days there were cafes open near my school where kids would pop in after school or sometimes at lunch to play for an hour or so. I don't really know why it fell out of favor. Kids still exist and presumably still want to play games they can't afford to buy at home.

soulless

kids are playing f2p shit on their laptops or smartphones nowadays. also getting into vidya in general is a lot less expensive than it was during the WC3 days

Ah yes the smell of piss, BO and stale fast food caked onto a controller under a smudged CRT. now THATS soul

>Never had weird encounter with girl in ball pit that asks to play house

What happened to them?

>Game forces a reset after 5 minutes

I worked at one that had these, decided to try Mario super sluggers or whatever when I got done with my shit early and by the time you actually started the game it would reset the GCN inside

Isn't this just an Internet Cafe? What's the big deal?

your bitch game slop on my game cock before I put it in her game slot

>go to Gamestop
>have to suffer through simpering kids, faggot teenagers, and clerks shilling me their company mandated crap
>have to show ID whenever buying a game

>go to Walmart
>grab game
>go to self-checkout
>go home

fuck Gamestop

honestly I'd be fine with it because it would mean that I wasn't alone.

This sounds most likely. If you can afford a car to get to a lan cafe, you can afford a computer and good internet.

They’re fat fucking retards and hate doing anything outside their house unless there is alcohol.

>t. amerifat expat

Are americans seriously just discovering Internet cafes now?

I used to go till a lan cafe fairly often until Dota blew up. I didn't really like it but it was all anyone would play. Before that people would play Battlefield, C&C generals, Call of Duty, Warcraft 3 and other random smaller games, but then it was literally just a Dota center and I stopped going.

we used to have them 15 years ago but they all went out of business afaik

>*smears shit on keyboard*
BLAHALAHLHALHAL WHERE'S THE CANDY MOM? MOOOOOOOOOOM?
WHY ISN'T THIS WORKING
>*smashes mouse into desk repeatedly*
THE MOUSE IS BROKEN

Then they get thrown out, you clean the keyboard and replace the mouse, charging the account for the price.

It's not hard.

americans are too violent, disgusting, fat and retarded for there to be any profit at these places, everything would need to be replaced too often to break even.
I'm not even trying to be mean here but americans are fucked in the head when it comes to public behaviour and sheer sense of entitlement.

I don't know about that guys story, but if it was anything like what has happened to a majority of game stores/internet cafes, then
>proliferation of smart technology and cellular data
>mobile gaming
>constantly digitizing gaming in general
>proliferation of online shopping
>harder and harder to move in most places
>easier and easier to stay home
>economy gets harder
Always remember that - despite the fact that the popularity of ebooks plummeted after a few years and more than 80% of all book sales remain physical - places like Barnes and Noble had to turn into generalized """"geek"""" consumer goods and stuff food/cafes into every single one of them to keep going in the days of online shopping and smart internet.

It's just too easy to stay home and cheap to stay home and spend money there. Quite literally, if it wasn't for millennials and gen x'ers largely giving up on owning homes, choose instead to rent renting, and then spending all of their extra money on consumer goods, brick and mortar "geek" stores would have disappeared some time between 2014 and 2016. Most of them did, anyway.

it's just a ploy to sucker in a few more investors before they go bankrupt

except these are private businesses and the second someone does anything retarded they would get kicked out

Ah yes, the 17 year old nerd running the counter at the gamestop is gonna kick out Tyrone and his gang

>clean the shit covered keyboard

no you throw both away sanitize the area and replace both

>For only $15 per month you can become a "Pro gamer" member and that comes with the benefit of a cushioned chair rather than the cold out steel chair you'd get otherwise. You also get access to the mouse that has shiny lights! For an additional $5 we'll let you sit facing the windows so you don't have screen glare!

So, can I interest you in this $7 bottle of water?

ah yes the retarded thirdworlder shitposting about america who thinks memes are real life

Boomers didn't like GameStop. Babbages and Electronics Boutique were leagues better all around. GameStop is finally getting the death it asked for

Ah yes, that's why chuck e cheese is famous for kicking out kids left and right that vomit and scream and behave like savages, also why everyone knows store personnel are uppity against customers.

get some real life experience before talking like you know shit.

Why are europoors so obsessed with Americans?

Irrelevance.
