If all you sell is these new games, why would you discount them? It's not a Supermarket where you lure someone in with a £25 COD to get them to do their weekly shop whilst they're there.

People go into a games shop and will usually buy 1 game. They won't go "oooh! look! that game is cheap! I'll buy these other 6 games too!"

i never buy just 1 game...  and british shops arnt known for beeing great at calculating, thats why they are all going down.

and a good supermarket dont lure in with discounted prices, the lure people in with permanent cheap prices on some products(milk, eggs,Butter). 

I guess you should tell the big 4 UK Supermarkets that. They all use heavily discounted high profile video games, Bluray/DVDs and books as loss leaders to drive sales.

I'm also pretty certain GAME reported pretty strong sales and profits at their last results, though I have no idea how, as their strategy seems to be add £5-£10 over what anyone else is charging.

the big 4 uk supermarkets are doomed anyway, aldi and lidl will crush em fast...
