GameStop - statistics & facts
When thinking of where to buy physical copies of video games, either first- or second-hand, there is one particular name that stands out: GameStop. What began as a two-man venture under a different label (Babbage’s) all the way back in 1984, eventually turned into one of the largest video game merchandise retail enterprises in the world. Today, the company sells video games, consoles, and game-related merchandise from major brands like Microsoft’s Xbox and Nintendo, as well as toys, figurines, and other entertainment products. Although GameStop remains a key player within its specific hobby store niche, its net sales have declined noticeably over the years.
