GameStop's CEO has stated that in the near future, they will begin selling retro video games. From the GameCube, back to the NES.

Now when they're asked whether or not they have Battletoads, they have to say yes.

What I'm wondering how many people will even be able to buy the older games. I mean, the NES's eventually will stop working, so how many people will even have older working systems?

patar4097 : True, but this would be a pretty exciting thing for game collectors.

Wow I would be so happy if they started selling old school games again. I love the Game Cube and the SNES. They bring back so many fond memories, and I would love to be able to play them again. I think GameStop would make a ton of money if they began to sell retro games again. And I also think that a whole bunch of gamer's would be very excited.

Well, if it actually does happen, I might be a much more active cutomer at GameStop. No need to buy some retro games anymore online.

This would be really cool if they had every single game online. I would like to buy some online if the store didn't have any. I wonder how much it will cost.

Too little, too late.

It certainly is a nice thought that GameStop will be offering older games, but they are honestly just trying to find another niche that they can rip off people with. In most cases, you will be better off buying it online on like Amazon or eBay.

Wow, that's pretty good. Nowadays you can only get retro games through the internet or Pawn Shops. Now that GameStop will offer these games, that would be awesome. It couldn't hurt them to buy a few GameCube games or even a Classic NES game for the collection

That would be the greatest thing in game history! NES, SNES, Gamecube? Well, that's for the Wii, also. But I always wanted SNES ever since I singed up for Vizzed! (Yeah, I know, you can play games here) But it's more like a collecters item nowdays, so I think they should do it!

Well this just means the one place in my town that sells a ton of vintage games might get a run for their money as long as Gamestop has all the games in stock most of the time. They will certainly have my business if so. I'm also glad I've been taking good care of all my old systems so I can put them to use!

alexanyways : Do you know if that includes portable games, like Game Boy and Game Boy Color games? Because if they will sell them, I would maybe be interested in some games, because without a Game Cube controller, Game Cube games would be useless for me. Hope to get a GC controller soon, though.

The main things I'm wondering is where they are going to get the games. They may have to buy some online to fill the shelves. Plus, they may bring up or lower the price depending on value. The Nintendo games may be higher priced than game cube. This idea may be a double-edge sword.

They should have been did this. Although I don't think many people will buy them, it is nice to actually have the actual game. But then again, that is what sites like this is for.

I agree with the collectables thing. It would be nice to look at them and see and boast that you still have the actual game. So finally, it really doesn't matter to me that they are selling the retro's anymore. This site is awesome enough!
