There are 34 Gamestop locations in the Phoenix Valley. On Saturdays, they are open from 10am to 9pm, but is that enough time??

They have the 4 for games $20 and under and 4 for games $10 and under that is going on right now. You have to go to the stores to get the deal. It doesn't apply to online orders. its lame if there are no stores within 20 miles that have the games you want to pick up. I''m not hardcore enough nor do I can enough about Gamestop to make the effort haha :P.

I know you guys did this on a whim without a plan, but maybe next time since you know where most of them are now you could with a little planning make it to all of the GameStops. Perhaps do a pre plan trip to make sure you know where they are and if they aren’t permanently closed. Best of luck if there is a next time!

I've been told that it's at the discretion of the managers and employees on whether or not they stock PS2-era games. Many of the Gamestops in my area do not consistently stock anything older than Xbox 360 and PS3-era games. Even then their retro games are hardly ever displayed. I often have to request a list, and I try to do it when the store is not busy. But I don't think Gamestop employees are trained or provided tools to open cartridges or to identify fake games which why some stores won't take in older games.

@@conservativegamer9047So technically anything traded in older than PS360/Wii/DS/3DS is supposed to be sent to corporate to sell, but some stores don’t want to lose sales so they will keep the games in store. But yes technically you aren’t supposed to find older than gen 7 games in store, but you can if you find the right location.

@@JRPGLifeNothing pre-NES, no Master System/Lynx/Jaguar/Game Gear/T16/Sega CD/32X/Neo Geo/Wonderswan/Neo Geo Pocket, but everything else is fair game. But the only way GS will get classic retro inventory is if someone doesn’t know what they’re selling; as while the sale price is mostly competitive with price charting, the TIV’s are NOT.

@@MSUHitman I see. It's too bad then that most of the Gamestop stores that I visit are strict on sending their PS2-era and older games to corporate HQ. However, at two separate locations, I did happen upon a copy of Demon's Crest on SNES (that was fake), Ninja Gaiden 1 on NES and Mario RPG on SNES (appeared authentic). So I do see the older games, but only on very rare occasions. Gamestop would be a better experience if it also sold the older stuff and if it used real photos of the exact item on its website. But since games are shipped from different stores - and not one processing warehouse - I understand why it would be difficult to include actual photos. My point is that the inconsistency of services and products doesn't help Gamestop build the best reputation amongst its gamer and collector consumer bases.
