Don’t you think apps like “Goodiez” are my competition and the biggest reason game stores are failing??? Is that the secret meaning here? Dude…

@JRPGLife 4 месяца назад

@nicholasharron3325 not at all. Apps like Goodiez can live in harmony with local game stores because they offer users another option to find some things that aren't available locally.

No they are my competitors and I know you’re defending them dude cuz we all gotta get paid bro. That’s cool. But they’re killing us ALL slowly…just facts.

@garnto 4 месяца назад

People don’t want to spend over market price, especially when it a crazy amount over. For example that Lufia II on snes cib was marked at $450 but it’s only worth 300 on average and sure the condition might be good but still way over priced. On top of that you know in the back of your mind they only payed the people 40-50% of market value for that. It’s just overall not become worth it.

@pigs18 4 месяца назад

i went into a local store to buy a new copy of Ocarina of Time. (I lent mine out and it didn't come back.) They were asking $45 at a time when it was going for $30 everywhere else. They're rationale was, "Because it's very popular." So you have three copies of a "very popular game" on your shelves? Needless to say, they're not in business anymore.

@jeffhaire1984 4 месяца назад

@@pigs18 unfortunately price gouging has become a big issue within the gaming community.

@pigs18 4 месяца назад

@@jeffhaire1984 I don't think it's price gouging so much as many people get into business without understanding the basics of supply and demand. Yes, it's a popular game, but they made over four million copies of it. Secondly, a lot of people don't understand that the price they paid for something has *zero* impact on its current worth. We saw this when everyone was trying to dump their old CRT entertainment centers. It wasn't uncommon to see Craigslist posts that said something like, "I paid $300 for this so I'd like to get $100." Dude, no one wants a box for a 4:3 25-inch TV. Put it by the curb on trash day.

Yes and no. Depends on the IP's. With Pokemon especially, yes, this is a great example of artificial over-inflation due to simple popularity. They love taking advantage of it with Pokemon. Then again I've also seen some games barely sell for 5 or 10 bucks from older gen consoles.

I think the market for retro gaming is growing and growing due to modern day consoles and games being “mostly” style over substance. My PS4 died on me 8 months ago. Friends were pushing me to invest in a PS5, but after seeing the games out on PS5, I decided to go back to a PS3 and a SNES instead. The games are just so much more fun. And allow for a 20 minute gaming session, unlike the PS4/5 where 20 minutes barely boots the system up and download an update.

@pescustomfaces7094 4 месяца назад

Thanks, but no thanks. As I merely mentioned, a 20 minute gaming session is all I can find time for nowadays. And as previously mentioned, I’m still certain that a 20gb download still takes 20 mins after the installation too. Most modern day PS4 / 5 games have no real end to them. Back in the 90’s, I believe the majority of Game Start to Game Completion timeframe was 2 hours. Which was fine on a wintery rainy day. GTA 5… 11 Years!

@mos_tekmusic7285 2 месяца назад

Actually the retro market exploded over COVID when people were home with nothing to do. Pokemon for example, a series that's always been expensive as far as the retro market goes-- increased exponentially over COVID, I haven't seen a copy of Pokemon Black 2 for less than $200 in the last 5 years. And the worste part is the retro market has no ceiling. Game prices are based off of arbitrary numbers that have no connection to what the games are worth, and more of a reflection of what someone is willing to pay for nostalgia. So prices will never go down, in 5 more years pokemon black 2 will be worth $500 CIB

@TadashiNazuka 4 месяца назад

Ebay is the place to shop for best condition for best price. Plus the fact that many game stores sell scratched discs, don't clean their inventory, and blatantly rip off their customers on trade ins. I gave up on stores a long time ago in my urban area.

@SolarpunkMonk 4 месяца назад

When games start out pricing their original new price, it’s no longer gamers but collectors buying. And there is way less collectors than gamers so retro prices out price themselves to buyers and collectors up the pricing quickly on rarer and more sought after games so it eventually out prices even its collectors go a limited few. Looking at all these retro game shops and online, the market is oversaturated at the price point the games sell for, especially when I walk in and see some categories with full shelves and others having little, shops need to start addressing supply and demand rather than market price. It will eventually even out and business savvy games shops will survive while those only init for money hopefully just close due to not being as profitable anymore.

I've always been a HUGE supporter of "Follow your passions". Even if that is with the gaming community. I even contemplated opening my own game store after I finished my college years, but sadly, my area just doesn't have the cliental for the business. I would've had to go strictly online to make any profit. I wanted a game store were people physically come in and not only play and buy video games, I also wanted my store to be partly dedicated to table top stuff like Magic or D & D. Alas, life doesn't always work out like we hope. But for those who manage to pull it off then God bless! I love that all of these non-corporate gaming stores are killing it with the gaming markets.

Title says "everywhere" but it really means in america. Japanese game stores thrive, here in the UK we have many too. Sure americans come in from time to time, buy out anything they think they can flip for "a quick buck" and ruin collecting for the rest of us, but the digital only, always online mindset is strictly an american one. Physical copies are always welcome elsewhere.

I should add, I'm not a collector for the sake of hogging things up, I'm a collector who likes to play the games I buy.

They're closing because most of them jack the prices up waaaay too high. Y'all are LUCKY to have the stores you have around you. The ones around me (California) have absolutely no respect for customers and don't give a shit about anything but making money. Perfect example is a Utopia game store near me selling Banjo Kazooie for 140$, and the clerk telling me they know it's only worth $20 and don't give a shit. "someone out there is stupid enough to buy it" is what I was told. Lmao local game stores are honestly a joke and should be avoided, ESPECIALLY in California. I still think the #1 people to blame for all of this are resellers, much like Retro Rick and Phoenix Resale. They're the ones buying up everything and selling it for more. Stores see this, and think they can do the same, and do. it's all a disgusting practice that NEEDS to stop, but probably never will.

He does have a lot of rare games, but also a lot of filler and just a bit of everything. It's certainly quite a store. But he wanted $50 for a copy of Hannspree Ten Kate Honda for PSP, for just one example I can remember. It was sealed, but I ended up getting it brand new off ebay for $12 shipped.

You can't charge those insane prices and expect rational hard working people to pay that. It Just doesn't work n today's economy especially when emulation is free. If retro gaming was actually affordable, as it once was, it would be more successful. But it's a big screw you to gamers when your getting ripped off by fellow gamers. So no. Everyone cries about staying with physical media. Yet at those prices, no one is going to pay double or more when digital sales are way cheaper with time. Physical goes up, digital comes down. We don't all have an endless cash flow. I saw physical limited games going for 40 bucks, yet the indie game digital sale price was like 4.99. Y'all high? I'm buying the 4.99 on sale version.
