    I keep forgetting that they were different companies from the stories, usually only saw EB games up here. After I typed this I looked and it appears I saw GameStop stores and not EB, oh well guess not much will change since I don’t go to them anymore and mostly play on PC these days. Used to quite enjoy getting used console games back in the day from them though, whichever company it was.

      They only switched the signs to GameStop in 2021, and if your area was anything like mine the only ones left by then were in the deep recesses of a few malls. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a GameStop exposed to natural sunlight.

        These days I just assume my memory is shot but I was pretty sure it was EB but all the stores said GameStop when I checked so figured just a memory lapse. I sort of went to an equal amount of each in strip mall or inside versions. I’ve been in a few different areas over the years though.
