GameStop has told its employees to ignore law enforcement demands to shut down during coronavirus

Imma go to Best Buy or target instead

 

[PS5 Pro]

Fam people locked inside all day with NOTHING to do

Video games, streaming services, basically any electronic entertainment is all most people have right now assuming they dont have other hobbies

You gonna see movies that were supposed to drop in theaters going straight to streaming, music acts all flooding the internet with projects, prolly new DLC if game studios are smart


Gamestop aint stupid with this one, the internet/video games bouta make a killing with everyone at home

You sound young, the real perspective is nikkaz trying to get supplies out here. Bills need to be paid and people can't work. No solution is in place and the one that is being tossed around doesn't solve most peoples problems. Can you find eggs my nikka? Im about to go eat some triscuits my nikka

“Due to the products we carry that enable and enhance our customers’ experience in working from home,” reads the memo, “we believe GameStop is classified as essential retail and therefore is able to remain open during this time. We have received reports of local authorities visiting stores in an attempt to enforce closure despite our classification. Store managers are approved to provide the document linked below to law enforcement as needed.”

That's hilarious

people can download any game they want now they dont need to go to the physical store no more

Someone on another forum I visit said he just bought a PS4 to help pass the time. Willing to bet many are doing the same.

‘And people are gonna buy that shyt from the comfort of their couch(like they’ve been doing before) and not trek to some nasty musty ass gamespot store. This is just pure desperation from a dying company who can’t survive mandatory shutdown

The hell are you talking about

No shyt the people who are low on food and having bill problems are gonna prioritize those first

Im talking about the people who HAVE finanances to hold them over for a few months and are just trying to find ways to pass the time


Everyone is gonna have different perspectives based on their situation, there is no "real" one, all of em matter cuz all of em can lead to people losing their minds at home. I have hobbies but i see a LOT of people getting into video games right now, that's my only point

I pay my own bills and i got eggs nikka hope you got somethin to wash those triscuits down or you gonna have a rough go of things

If they were gonna stay open, they should have at least moved to curbside pickup and delivery only like the comic book shops are doing.
