That Guy said:
Just buy new games from the VGChartz Amazon portal. To sell used games, i would probably just set something up on craigslist.

I would like to do this

But I can't find the damn thing

im going to work at a company in fresno called bre software. they are a specialty shop that sells video games. they are a lot better than gamestop mainly because of their customer service. every game is resurfaced, and the box is shrink wrapped for you. also, they sell atari games, genesis games, super nintendo games (my fav), 64 games, ps1, any games you can think of.

its going to kick so much more ass than gamestop. especially because im going to get first dibs on every boxed super nintendo game in the store.


I c. I never heard of that store (but then, I don't live in the US ). You live in Sacramentos? Its near Fresno right?

Why u have such a high Gamerscore if u such a Nintendo fan?



well, nintendo is number one in my book, but there a lot of good games on the 360. this guy i worked with was a complete microsoft fanboy, and i showed him up at his own shit. he kept saying he is more knoweledgeable about video games, but im like 'hey, i have a better gamerscore AND i have 100%ed all my virtual console/wii/ps3 games, so go fuck yourself'

and thats basically the gist of it.

i like a lot of hd games, but nintendo kicks the shit out of both ps3 and 360



My games usually come from EB Games.

Is that better?

I will never leave you

I wish you guys would go into detail about working at Gamestop. I'm looking for a second job and I applyed to Gamestop, the GS in my hometown is horrible though. They always think I'm gona steal something and get every store associate to ask me if I need help and follow me around. When I ask them questions they give me snobby remarks and don't have any information ever.

I remember when Zelda TWP came out I went to GS to buy it for Gamecube and the guy said "did you preorder it?" I replyed "no, I just want to buy a copy." He just started laughing and said good luck because were sold out and theres no way you can get new games unless you preorder. So I went NEXT DOOR to Target and bought it.

wow, thats just crazy. gamestop brainwashes their employees to manipulate customers into preordering shit; its fucking annoying. dont preorder from gamestop guys.. seriously. just go buy the game you want new somewhere else. gamestop isnt the only location they ship these things to.



How much was ur hourly salary at Gamestop? Week days? Any weekends extra?

i don't hate them,they sale good stuff and affordable price compare to store like walmart and is the only store i go because where i live there is not an EB store near.

Except GameStop owns EB so you are still screwed.



it was the same no matter when you worl. i got payed about 8.35 i think. i got two a couple raises since i have been there, and they were about 15 to 20 cents. if you got promoted to lead game advisor or senior game advisor, youre still making around 8.50, and i think assistant manager still makes under 9.
