More on GameStop
Description from Wikipedia:
GameStop Corporation (NYSE: GME) is the world's largest video game and entertainment software retailer. The company, whose headquarters are in Grapevine, Texas (a suburb of Dallas), United States, operates 5,889 retail stores throughout the United States, Canada, Ireland, Australia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Austria, Puerto Rico, Switzerland, Portugal, Sweden and 2 test stores in the United Kingdom. GameStop is expected to open around 600 new stores for the 2008 business year.
Retail stores operate primarily under the GameStop and formally EB Games brands. In addition, the company runs two e-commerce websites, GameStop.com and EBgames.com, and also Game Informer magazine, GameStop's proprietary video and computer game publication. In addition to video and computer games, GameStop sells magazines, strategy guides, entertainment DVDs, and other related merchandise. A major source of the company's profit is also buying used games and movies from its customers and selling them back at an increase. In fact, approximately 48% of Gamestop's revenue is from its used products sales (based on the quarter that ended Nov. 1 2008). A new store concept called MovieStop, which focuses on selling movies rather than games, is currently building and operating stores in the southeastern United States, including the Dallas area.
In 2007, Gamestop upset the creators of the Penny Arcade webcomic by giving them an in-store ultimatum regarding an upcoming game that the two writer/artists were releasing digitally first. Penny Arcade lashed back in interviews as well as in comic strip form.
