    They’ve pivoted towards more Zing! style retail with clothing, TCG and figurines. I’d say only 30% of floorspace (mostly wall-space) is dedicated towards videogames now. The markup on plastic crap must be enough to let them re-expand

      I just don’t know how they expect to profit when they are competing with half a dozen other stores in the same shopping centre that offer the exact same plastic crap and shirts, plus actual electronics and not just video games. I clearly am not a capitalist mogul though, as I lack the vision to understand why trying to break into an oversaturated market is a good idea.
