Buy the console from GameStop and GameStop gets a cut from every game/app ever purchased on that console

Sounds like you haven't read it. The entire article is focused on Gamestop using microsofts products to fully optimize its store and transition to omnichannel. Is this good for gamestop? Probably but its not some game changing partnership if that is what you are trying to infer.

There is the tiniest sliver that mentions gamestop getting to sell xbox all access and seeing lifetime revenue from this source. Again, this is not some monumental revenue source. Any company that sells another companies subscription can expect to receive a % of the ongoing revenues. This isn't new stuff. A quick google shows me where other retailers also have the ability to sell xbox all access. Some partnership. I'd actually be more curious to know how many people actually pay for the xbox all access subscription.

"Following decades as an essential provider of the Microsoft Xbox gaming platform and services, GameStop has expanded its Xbox family of product offerings to include Xbox All Access, which provides an Xbox console and 24 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to players with no upfront cost. GameStop and Microsoft will both benefit from the customer acquisition and lifetime revenue value of each gamer brought into the Xbox ecosystem."

Nailed it. Looking like maybe we found a floor. There were buyers under 14 which should make the long shorts very nervous

From someone who had Blockbuster at the end, good luck my friend.


Ryan Cohen bought into GME and they're supposedly going to focus on same day video game delivery. This should keep them from going down the Blockbuster road.

If your worst decision ever is a 5% loss on $500 investment then you are a rockstar. I’ve made worse decisions on losing $25 in a bar or even a grocery store. You should start your own investment firm if that’s your worst decision ever.

Worst one I’ve made since corona is 500 dollar on nkla actually. Down 50% there.

The majority of my other stuff has stayed green. I should have played the ups and downs more but I’ve just been letting it ride. Turned 30k into 60k (haven’t cashed out yet so it could all change at any moment I guess) as a 24 year old. Feels pretty good to be honest.

Alright checking back in cohen has added more stock. He's over 12% of the company now.

I dollar cost averaged while it went down and am now up a little bit.

If we can get low volume and steady pricing we may force some short selling finally and see the squeeze

Yea I added more while it was down and now I’m up even more. Cohen added at $16 so I’m not concerned about my share price to add at. I expect he’ll continue adding. By becoming a 10+% investor he has to be a lot more open about his moves and hold much longer. Very good sign for the value of this stock

The new consoles dont even have disc drives unless you buy the more expensive version. All digital is the future. I don't know how gamestop can get into that since game downloads come directly from the microsoft or playstation store.

I did too after seeing information somewhere about their growth. Not a large Chuck but about %1.5 of my portfolio. They’ve grown fro $2.80 $4.50/share since. Not bad at all.
