Forums - Gaming - Is your Gamestop advertising PS4?

I was out with my sister today and noticed something a bit odd.  All three gamestops I had went to was advertising Xbox One in the front glass but when I walked into the stores there was not any kind of PS4 related posters or ads anywhere.  Curious to see if this is common or not.

Side Unrelated Story that you can skip

Also on a side note all of my family today was showing interest in Xbox One because of Kinect 2.0  None of which are gamers.  Both of my sisters alone want it for Xbox Fitness.  Though one of my sisters does like games a bit but she told me she is switching from Sony to Microsoft this generation because of Kinect.  Which isn't really surprising since she doesnt like Sony exclusives, though i told her just to get a WiiU because she likes their games more.  Plus I will always let her play PS4 if she really wants to, so  she can borrow mine when I get it

At my local EB Games, the front of the store is full of PS4 posters and place holder game boxes.

 

Side unrelated story:

Everyone I know and their mother are switching from MS to Sony because of kinect, specs, and price.

Yes. EB Games is a division of Gamestop.

Hmm, interesting.  Check GameStop if you can next time you are out.  Im wondering if MSFT paid for them to do this

A few days ago my friend went to Gamestop and they asked him if he wanted to Pre order a PS4, which is weird because I thought they were sold out.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

They are.  Both Xbox One and PS4 are sold out, though last week they opened up Xbox One Preorders again for a short period of time.  The associate could have made a mistake asking for a PS4 preorder instead of Xbox One thinking both were in.




       

If EB Games counts as Gamestop, then yes they do advertise the PS4. But I haven't been there for a while now, so things might have changed..

WTF?



Just went to gamestop and I didn't see any Xbox One or PS4 advertisements just posters for Ghosts, BF4, and Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD.



All my GameStops have Xbox One stuff.
