gaming during lockdown helps boost short term sales and attract long term customers. More and more people are taking up gaming as their entertainment and hobby.
Long term, gamestops other plans such as my aforementioned venture into eSports and partnership with microsoft that will experience big uptick and growth, in the digital sphere, which gamestop didn't have much presence in, but will do in the very near future.
Physical stores is a sunken cost. What I'm more interested in is how established is the brand itself. And gamestop, through EB games holds a very significant stronghold on aussie, UK, and Canadian gaming markets.
You can think of them like Harvey Norman in Malaysia.
When you are that big of a house-hold name, you no longer need to operate with a physical store.. People will remember your name, & go visit your online store instead.
My analysis is pretty sound, unlike yours, that simply link without actual thought or research put behind and just using sound bites to paint a distorted picture..
another thing I forgot to mention is that game stop is also doing a subscription, and maybe even gaming streaming platform. Which was something blockbuster couldn't do. Infact, game stop may be the very first company to go big on the gaming streaming platform. That is another hugely untapped market.
