why get other systems if your not hyped about the games. who woudnt like to get used games? i dont get many because im not patient when i want a game i cant wait. if your not that really into games on the 360/ps3 dont buy one

oh btw, I actually am pleasantly surprised about how the employer reacted..without sucking up and working to get the transaction done, he flat out said what was on his mind...

+1 for him/gamestop

I only buy new games when I'm especially excited about the game and want to get it right away (or if they are cheap). This usually just happens to be Nintendo games. There are very few other games I am willing to purchase at full price, especially when that full price is $60. $50 games are at least a little easier to stomach.. Though I will be buying a couple of HD games new at launch, including Dead Rising 2 and Fallout New Vegas.

Gamestop employees really need to keep their opinions to themselves. They're always trying to inject their opinion somewhere or push a game on you that doesn't particularly interest you.

It's your money, you can do anything you want with it.

yeah, Im like that too

and most of the time it happens that they're nintendo or capcom games

I guess is just bcuz after all those years those 2 companies (and some other)

usually never disappoints me

Many people only buy preowned and no one thinks they are hypocrites. The only hypocrisy in there is that the clerk think there is a problem with you buying preowned-only on some consoles when the clerk is the person that enables you to do that with his preowned store in the first place.

Hey if you had presented this as "I buy all my games preowned... but I buy my nintendo games new", no one would have had a thing to say to your logic. But there you used the terms nintendo fanboy, so some people feel you are evil all of a sudden.

Continue at it, as long as used stores are legal, then there is no reason not to benefit from them.

OP is my new hero :)
if i was a multy-console owner i would do exactly like him.

You wouldn't happen to know an angry pool man would you?

@OP
No it does not make you a fanboy, it does make it hypocritical. In the scheme of things. It doesn't matter. It's pretty tame and if I were you I wouldn't care at all. Also watch the negative comments in this thread against the supportive and neutral ones. You might get a pattern here. Given the reverse of the console in question you may get different backers.

The problem isn't you buying only used game's, it's that you go out of your way to buy used game's which you obviously enjoy (because you chose to buy them) and then through your weird obsessive love for a company you decide that the maker's of the game you enjoyed doesn't deserve any money.

The Gamespot employee was right to judge you as a hypocrite, he was wrong to tell you up front but that's only because he was working.

You're a terrible gamer, you don't like good game's, you love a company and that loyalty is misguided and hurtful to not only your future gaming habit's, but to Nintendo and the gaming industry.
