FUCKING GAMESTOP
>>323706509
Happening again.
Good. Puerto Rico is a fucking shithole, and the people there are so fucking shitty they don't even deserve FUCKING GAMESTOP.
How many stores has GameStop shut down already? They're really in deep shit.
anyone remember that thread with that underage kid that went to a gamestop in puerto rico?
>>323707317
>Puerto rico
>Spain
What more?
People still buys CDs in 2016?
>>323707623
How so?
>>323707731
I remember that. He showed a receipt that had his name on it.
>>323707950
Funny you say that
3 years ago everyone was planning on boycotting the xbone because apparently everyone does want discs
>>323706509
Considering the import tax, business operation fees, and crime; it's a wonder why any business would operate south of Texas. Latin American cities have put Detroit (Saginaw), Michigan and Chicago, Illinois to shame when it comes to murder rates
>>323708273
people want discs, they just order them online for cheaper
there is literally no reason to use gamestop anymore
>>323707950
Yes. You can rip them in any format, at any bitrate, without being absolutely infested with iTunes DRM.
Puerto Rican here. At best this will only affect normies so I don't give a shit.
There are three local stores (Specialty Gamer, Neo Japan, JuegoPR) ready to replace these idiots right away, because they held exclusive rights to distributors into here, once their gone that contract will go as well.
Sale tax is insane here (almost 11.5%, prob as high as Cali) as well so people opt in for the cheaper options amazon/digital.
>>323707564
It is my friend. But not everyone can move from this shithole and now they're trying to stop us from going to MUHRIKA without a visa soon. Not like murika would like our kind anyway, ricans are the fucking worst, they're almost BR shit tier.
>country so fucked up that your utility company runs the risk of shutting down entirely by midsummer
Fucking hell, what is up with your country, PRfags? How can y'all fix it before you have to pedal bikes to power your vidya?
>>323708337
Really depends on the part of Shitcago you go to. Where I live (near the airport) we've had two cases and one of them was purely accidental.
Now if you take the red line prepare your anus.
>>323708273
>Being this dense.
>>323708337
If only we had out right to bear arms and a noncorrupt government, noncorrupt police force, and less leftist economic ideals, we wouldn't be a shithole
>>323708484
>Neo Japan
I thought those guys closed down. Did they move?
>>323708628
Apparently not from what I've heard., I haven't gone there in a while since I main PC gaming now. Haven't had a console in ages.
>>323708337
>it's a wonder why any business would operate south of Texas.
Puerto Rico is not South America.
>>323708516
Blame the govement and Rosselló for leaving us how it is. Walmart is also considering leaving due to the same reasons as gamestop (insane taxes).
>Gamestop leaves Puerto Rico
>Amazon Prime members can now have 20% off

Coincidence?
>>323708484
We're not that bad as Brazil. It's the fucking cacos and porch monkey behaving Puerto Ricans that fuck this economy. And then there's our shitty government

They are going out of business. Greet your new overlords
>>323708937
puerto rico is landlocked so there is nothing stopping them from just going to south america though
>>323709409
Doubt it, Gamestop bought most big gaming stores here and now they going to die with them. And no one with their right mind would run a business here how things operate at the moment.
>>323707564
Nobody deserves GameStop, anon
>>323707950
I'd rather keep buying physical copies of games than have to spend more money on external hard drives for digital copies.
>>323710193
Not only that, digital copies can disappear or be changed at any time and you cannot even ask for a refund. We seen this time to time.
People already forgot Marvel vs Capcom
Or the controversy with GTA: San Andreas steam version.
Perfect examples of where you do not own the product when you buy digitally. You're just paying for an expensive rental that expires at any time. I buy my shit digitally for convenience but we can't deny the biggest pros when you buy physical products, one being you actually own it.
>>323709513
>PR
>Landlocked
This is b8
>>323710764
>buy DRM free games on Humble Bundle/GoG/Desura/itch
>don't delete your installers when you download them
>at zero risk of your games suddenly disappearing from your library because a vendor decided to fuck you/somebody went out of business/other bizarre business shit occurred
Sure, having all your shit stored on CD is safer than keeping it on hard drives that can fail, but guess what? You could put all your installers on CD if you wanted to.
>>323711119
Yes but aside from indie shit, there is little actual good DRM free games and most of them are old anyway, you're better of pirating them instead of giving your sheckles to GOG.
>>323707950
Only retards and corporate shills want the demise of physical copies
>>323711307
I agree with the sentiment about pirating old games rather than giving shekels to GoG because they acquired the rights to sell them, but there's still plenty of good "indie shit" and it's your job as a consumer not to support companies whose practices you don't approve of. Don't like the fact that you're only renting your games and they can get removed through circumstances beyond your control? Don't purchase from vendors where this is the case. It's very simple.
>>323710764
Wait, what happened to Marvel vs Capcom?
I already own it on my Dreamcast so I never bothered with a download version.
>>323706509
How do they even stay in business? Everything can be bought online.
>>323708620
PR needs the death penalty.
>>323712021
MvC2 and UMvC3 were removed digitally completely (you can't even download it) once Mahvel was sold to disney.
>>323712325
Oh. Meh. Got those games on disc, too.
>>323708484
Wait what?
a Visa for a fucking territory?
I can't wait for GS to go out of business in general. Imagine the sales
>>323708484
Republicans don't want you guys here because you mainly vote democrat.
>>323709513
>Puerto Rico is landlocked
>nothing stopping them from just going to South America
Hey, some people post drunk, and that's okay. Some people post stoned, and that's alright too. But don't you think there are some more productive things you can be doing while you're on acid?
>>323706509
Is this how puerto rico looks like? Why the fuck was I born in Eastern Europe ffs.
Gracias populetes.
>>323706509
Why hasn't online shopping killed Gamestop yet? The only benefit to going there anymore is you don't have to wait for shipping, but is it really worth it when you take into account:
>Waste gas getting there and going back
>Get taxed
>Fleshy ads try to talk you into preordering the flavor of the month game
>Buying new doesn't even ensure you get a factory sealed copy
Puerto Rico wouldn't have had this problem if they just agreed to be a state already.
>>323713113
Read this.
>>323712769
>>323713113
As a New York City born and raised Puerto Rican, I believe that Puerto Rico stands to benefit from statehood. Every year, we send more money to Israel than Puerto Rico.

>Why hasn't online shopping killed Gamestop yet?
I've been a loyal Amazon customer for years, but they have fucked up so badly during the past two Black Fridays, that it is obvious why GameStop is still in business.
GameStop regularly offers certain games for massive discounts. In an effort to stay competitive, Amazon and Walmart TRY to match the same prices, but often still charge more.
GameStop has preorder exclusives on games, often adding even more to existing offers. Amazon has been massively scaling back exclusives, so much so, that they only offer what is included by default by publishers.
TL;DR: The competition offers a lot less, and only play keep up.
>>323708484
>Sale tax is insane here (almost 11.5%
ouch, it is 11% in some parts of central Alabama, where we have relatively low cost of living.
>>323707731
>what are you, to POOR to afford a PS4
something along the lines of that
>>323708484
>>323708628
I thought there was only 1 Neo Japan store? I know the one in Bayamon but that's it.
>>323707731
I do, holy fuck can't believe I share the same space with such peasant.
>shows Gamestop from PR
>has ps4 pre-order with some shitty AAA titles that were fucking garbo.
>WHAT R U POOR?!?! EQUISD
>>323708484
>>323714290
I'm not good at Economy. How can the sales tax here in New York City be lower than in California, Puerto Rico, and Alabama?
>>323706509
>Puerto Rico
>>323710193
All that talk about games soon going full digital when the hard drives that come with the system can barely hold all those 30+ gig games, each with a 4 gig patch or two. I put off buying a lot of games during sales because of how large the file sizes were.
>>323709392
Mexican weeb grills > Puertorican weeb grills
That's a fact.
>>323713995
>As a New York City born and raised Puerto Rican
That's doesn't make sense.
>>323707831
To be honest in Spain they have always been dead, everyone knew Game before Gamestop so they were Tim Buckley's son here.
They didn't even try to compete, you were usually watching Game ads about a new game or console pack around christmas, but Gamestop? Never.
>>323715426
Either moved to puerto rico or raised by puerto ricans with no interest in integrating (which is why we don't want them in the US).
>>323715187

100% mexican girls are hot garbage

I don't know about weeb girls but PR girls are better imo
>>323706509
AJAJAJAJJAJA PEUERTO RICO
>>323709523
Funny thing is, Game bought the Gamestop stores in Spain when Gamestop decided to get the fuck ou of here. The reward from spending all that money? Shipments of shitty 8-10 year old games to the Game stores.Yeah I worked there
>>323715697
Puerto Ricans are American by default numbnuts
>>323715426
Both my parents were born in Puerto Rican. I was born in Brooklyn. I am aware that being Pueto Rican is already a hodgepodge of other cultures and ethnicity.
>>323715760
>puerto pobre monkey still talking shit even when their fuckin "not an island" of a country is already sinking.
Puerto Rican here.
I just want you all to know I exclusively fuck white women. I've never even fucked my own ethnicity before and don't have much interest. White women are very docile which I enjoy.
>>323715862
Don't be an obtuse retard. I said nothing about whether they were or weren't "American", which is an ambiguous term in this context anyway.
>>323715614
>so they were Tim Buckley's son here.
Was this necessary?
>>323716168
>>323716023
disgusting
>>323716168
Ooops sorry, it look's like I typed d3ad on arrival but it must be some sort of filter.
>>323708390
Yeah well puerto rico was the one and only fucking exception because shipping to here is 15 fucking dollars on average, fucking cunts.
>>323716375

>>323715991
Mexicans are barely even a people. They did't even exist before about the 16th century or so. Mexicans were born when Spanish conquistadors raped what was left of the central native americans after they devastated them with war and plague. Mexicans are the absolute bottom shit tier of the entire hispanic world without question.
I'd call Mexicans the niggers of the Hispanic world but that would be an insult to niggers. At least they evolved and cultivated their own native land. Mexicans had to be raped into existence. The earth didn't produce them naturally. They are an abomination created by horny spanish fucks.
>>323716616
>implying the Aztecs didn't sacrifice little children and goats
Whut m8?
>>323716489
It's actually not bait. it's true. I've only ever touched white pussy with my brown dick
And one Asian.
>>323716735
where did he imply that?
>>323716616
That sounds sort of the same with Puerto Rico. SPanish raped the natives, niggers raped the natives.

>Puerto pobre
Literally monkey island and Americans vacation, entertainment park
>>323716863
Negative. Native Puerotrican people originated from the Boricuas. The Boricuan people existed on the South American continent for thousands of years and settled the carribean through advanced seafaring navigational techniques. Sure the Spanish came and raped and pillaged everyone in the area but the point is Puertoricans were an established identity long before the Old World came to the New World.
Mexicans, on the other hand, are genetically the descenants of the spanish raping the native central americans. THAT is their heritage. DIsgusting rape babies.
at least you guys have gamespot we got nothing on the DR

Please pick up a history book. Of course PR is very diverse now. I was talking about the origin of the original puertoricans (La Boricua) from THOUSANDS of years ago. You know long before blacks, Spaniards, and moors ever came to the island (which all happened in the 20th century).
Fucking ignorant ass white people. Don't you got a cousin too fuck or something?
>>323716616
Literally everyone was born out of the fertile crescent and started off darkskinned in any case.
Natural selection over a long period of time led to lighter skintones farther away as humanity spread.

Anon, I'm Elderly. As a child, I knew that NewEgg was a bad place to buy computer parts due to their markup compared to local stores.

Listen ass whippe I am Puertorrican and there was three tribes on the Island, Tainos been the dominate ones, and they are thought to have come from Venezuela like their rivals, which I can remember their names right now.
>>323718679
FUCK YOU! Is because of leftist, parental nanny states the we have 50% unemployment of people capable of working, because the states gives them enough free money and handouts.
Fuck you, you worhtless leach you are the reason people leave the Island, because they don't want to be taxed to hell and back to keep you living like a damn nigger.
We cant prosper because the the gov thinks it owns the people and need to keep us in check.
>>323718874
We do. Our government is shit and forced them to move.
I hope the mom and pop shops here boom with business with them gone. Specially now that the shipping contract will be gone when gamestop leaves.
Its kinda sad though. If the mom and pop shops don't pick up business I'll have to start ordering my CDs online.
>>323719772
Microcenter crushes newegg on everything where I live.
>>323717367
This post is retarded. The natives of our island were the Tainos, which were originally from Arawak. Borinquen is a word the spanish word for Boriken, which was how the natives called the island.
t. native islander.
>>323719796
Please, continue regaling us with your varied tribal histories, I'm especially curious as to how all these distinct, varied cultures ended up putting their cars on cinder blocks.Why do you guys come to the mainland and basically refuse to assimilate? It's like you guys acknowledge what a shithole you come from and yet you're still proud of it. The bravado couldn't be any more hollow or embarrassing. P.S. it's extremely rude to speak Spanish which you know the people around you don't.
Nobody cares about Puerto Rico.
Not even me, a guy living in it.
Hopefully GameStop puts on sale a bunch of shitty stuff.
>>323721293
Not him, but people everywhere are a bunch of proud asshole in generals, but Puertorican are plain dumb and obnoxious like a child trying to get the attention of his parents. That's why most Puertoricans shout "Yo soy Boricua pa' que tu lo sepas" because of how insignificant they know they are, that if they don't scream for attention they wont be noticed.
>>323718679
Never been around curry but I imagine it smells like a mixture of spices doesn't it?
PR is the Greece of America with all their shitty debt and financial situations.
This is why I hate when people get excited about the possibility of PR becoming a state. You think Mississippi is bad? PR will be the new Mississippi if we give them statehood.
>>323708484
As someone who lives in the Eastern caribbean I have to ask PRbros.
Do you guys hate American soil born Puerto Ricans as much as literally anyone else in the Caribbean does?
>>323708484
Man unless they get new stores I'm going to have to stick to best buy since it's the nearest one for me.
