That would be sweet, as I have a huge Gamestop (in a stand-alone building) right near me and they already carry a lot of toys and stuff. Clearly, Gamestop is trying to compensate for the fact that gaming is moving to digital downloads and mobile from physical media.

That kind of sucks as GameStop is about to go up for sale apparently.

Hmmm...I didn't know that, so I just went and read an article. Apparently they're in talks with a few private equity firms but nothing is definite yet. If they DO sell, hopefully it doesn't become another Toys R Us fiasco.
