My Local Tesco is just one of the normal ones that is open till 12pm rather than 24/7 and their Vita section is as big as their 3DS section (which is currently occupied by both that and the DS games/consoles) so I would suggest that it really just depends on area how they manage the gaming sections...

well why keep something if its not selling?

Pics or didn't happened.


(lol, I would love to see someone taking a pic at a local store to show (really show!) to the whole world! I would go all...

leo-j did the opposite... he went to a store and took pictures of a pile of Wii consoles to show it wasn't out of stock everywhere.

my Reggie is being over used!

Your Reggie?

(dramatic camera angle)

My Reggie!

You can't really expect people to buy Vitas along with their carrots and butter anyway...

Those are the two most typical things you buy in a supermarket? Carrots and Butter? Not milk, or eggs, or bread or anything? 

Anyway, here in England supermarkets have a specialised area for electronics, not just video games. And they sell well. They do pre-owned, retro, pre-order bonuses etc., and it's so big it's destroyed much of the dedicated games stores competition. For most people, or a large number anyway, it's get your games and consoles from the supermarket, online, or not at all.

A supermarket not stocking a game or a console is almost as big a blow as a games store.

they cant "Refuse" to sell something, it probably just went out of stock , since sony themselves didn't care to make as many, or they didn't ship.
the last time a store tried "refusing" to sell something, it went bankrupt (it was GAME i think?)

It was GAME. That leaves the UK with...20% (?) Gamestations left, and that's about it on the gaming front.
