If they are grocers, then their console presence is minimal and they are just gettting rid of it altogether.

There is nothing dramatic here lol. This hardly has any impact at all.

This is actually huge as Asda is the 4th largest UK video game retailer.

Only Amazon, Tesco (another grocer) and HMV are larger.

With Asda having a 50% larger slice of the UK's video game market than the UK's only dedicated video game store.

Yeah I think it's a little bit of a foreign concept in the US where only recently has Wal-Mart started to integrate the grocery store + department store concept into an all-in-one thing, but in the UK that's been around for a while.
