Wiiloveit.com: Developers vs. the Used-Game Market

"The game industry’s frustration towards the used-game market is understandable. With retail chains such as GameStop selling off second-hand games for 100% of the profit, it’s easy to see why developers would be interested in trying to earn wages off the sales of their products. After all, gamers are paying developers to make the games, right?" -- Wiiloveit.com

It will come. I just think it will be after code Veronica, and zero. Maybe in line with when RE 10 releases…

gold_drake85d ago

do we really need another remake?

the one that got re released for the ps4 and xbox looks amazing.

-Foxtrot85d ago

It's been 23 years, by the time this could come out we'd be nearing 25. If it's done in the same style as the RE2, 3 & 4 Remake then yeah, I'd happily take another remake.

It gets to tie together RE0 and RE1 better while adding onto the mansion to give us new areas to visit or enemies to face.

Part of me always wishes the "OG" Resident Evil Remake would remain the only one. Then again, can't deny the financial incentive.

Gamer Tries to Sell PS4 Pro to GameStop, Ends Up Being Asked to Pay the Store

A gamer tried to sell his PS4 Pro to GameStop USA and found out that he would actually have to pay the store.

Lionsguard112d ago

Gamestop: And I'm taking a huge risk here.

1Victor111d ago (Edited 111d ago )

Well there’s no stop like GameStop I’m surprised they didn’t go deeper into the hole with their USED cables and controllers prices.
Edit:
For those that don’t know if you go to trade a console you need it to be ready to go with all the controllers and cables if you don’t have them they ask you to buy them and deduct the price from the monetary appraised for the console

Gamingsince1981111d ago

That makes perfect sense really, why would you be selling your console without all the things it came with and needs to actually be used.

jznrpg112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

eBay.. not having anything for it makes it seems stolen though

Profchaos111d ago

Not always I've seen plenty of refurbished units go cheap because people have picked them up broken then repaired and onsold with no controller or cable. When they are this old many people just want to replace the main unit

jznrpg111d ago

I doubt those people are selling at GameStop

BeHunted111d ago (Edited 111d ago )

In the UK, eBay has removed selling fees, letting you list and sell any item for free.

andy85111d ago

Correct. This is why day one games cost me practically nothing now

Eonjay111d ago

They are gonna take that same console and sell it for $300.

Inverno112d ago

GameStop era ended in the teens. Let it die bruh.

S2Killinit111d ago

I love gamestop. I still shop there. I prefer buying a game from a game store than a department store.

Inverno111d ago

I preferred goin to Circuit City but that died out. Years back I'd go to Best Buy cause of Gamer Club, now Best Buy barely sells games and doesn't sell Blu-rays and looks dead most of the time. Same with GameStop, these stores look like a barren wasteland of Funko Pops and anime figures. These retail stores don't seem to care about pulling in customers. Those figurines are neat, I collect them too but they ain't pulling me into a GS. Rather than attracting gamers they've pay walled everything behind a subscription. As if they weren't already cheapskates back then with their trade ins.

FinalFantasyFanatic111d ago

I still go in there and browse, but never buy anything, the video game section is getting smaller and smaller, even the PS5/Series X/Switch game selection is getting tiny.

tiron8111d ago

I miss Best Buy's Gamer Club, I used to get pre-orders for like 20% off often with other discounts then get points I could trade into discount rebates. It was so good, getting day 1 games for like $30.

When they shut that down I stopped buying games day 1 almost completely.

raWfodog111d ago (Edited 111d ago )

I stopped going to GameStop when they no longer let me use my monthly $5 rewards points towards PS network cards.

Knightofelemia111d ago

Weird I live in Canada and the Gamestop near me says you need the console, controller, controller cord, and an HDMI cord before they will take a console on trade. And if the console shows signs of being opened they still won't take the machine. And if you upgrade the PS4 HDD from 500 gig to a 1TB they will count that machine as modified and label it as a 500 gig model. Better to just sell it on Facebook Marketplace.

clevernickname111d ago

I also live in Canada. I had a similar experience trading in an Xbox One S. Gamestop would give me a pittance for it, so I sold it on Marketplace for almost as much as the original selling price.
