    1. The last day of business at the Little Falls NJ store is August 23rd. All their preorders were transferred to the store on Route 3 in Clifton NJ in Riverfront Center

    2. I remember Little Falls opened as a "tournament store", the predecessor to the Store of the Future; it's much larger than a standard Gamestop and had an area in the back with multiple TVs for regular tournaments. Unfortunately the larger size most likely means higher rent, which makes it a liability now.

  12. GameStop #6266 at the East River Plaza in Manhattan is gone since at least August 11th (517 E 117th St Suite 202 New York, NY 10035). There's a sign on the door saying "This location is closed. All reservations will be transferred to the address below." There are heavy metal bars over the doors during normal business hours, and the inside is stripped bare.

    1. That leaves only 6 GameStops in Manhattan, tying them with Staten Island as the borough with the least locations (Brooklyn still has 19, followed by Bronx with 12 and Queens with 11).

    1. The other Gamestop in the area just closed a few months ago; I don't usually see a town go from 2 to 0 so quickly.

      Delete
    2. Yes the cranberry mall store on RT 19 iscis All their preorders were transferred to the Gibsonia store. The GameStop in Port Arthur Texas on twin city highway is closing as well and the store in hollymead town center in Charlottesville is closing

    3. What about the one on 228 right up from the Cranberry Mall?

      Delete
    4. They closed first! I was shocked that the one on 228 was closed then the Cranberry Mall location was told rent was being doubled (during a pandemic at that) so Corporate closed them and took trucks in overnight and cleared out the store.

  15. Little Falls, NJ has already officially shut down. Closed minutes after opening on the 23rd in a final buy-out.

    1. What do you mean, a final buy-out?

      Delete
    2. Someone just came in and bought every remaining thing in the store, which when things are 80-90% off is a little more likely to happen.

      Delete
  16. GameStop on 20111 Route 19 Cranberry PA closed already

    ReplyDelete
  17. Also the thinkgeek location in Florida Mall is closing.

    ReplyDelete

    1. That was actually the first physical ThinkGeek location; it opened in 2015 not long after Gamestop acquired them.

      Delete
  18. Sam's drive GameStop may already be closed cause the Google location result is gone

  19. The Gamestop in the Innovation area of Manassas closed suddenly.
    9942 Sowder Village Square
    Manassas, VA 20109

    It's still listed on their website as an existing store but I passed the store by and it just has a paper sign on the door saying "Closed, all inventory has been sold." Don't know when it closed but assuming recently as it was still there in the spring.

    1. Thanks for the heads up; I'm mildly dyslexic and try to catch as much as I can, but every so often a word slips by me.

  27. Oakland Mall, Troy, MI closed a while ago. This was one of the rare "Gamestop.com" stores.

    ReplyDelete
  28. GameStop.com still has this store listed (google maps has already delisted it), but I drove by today and it's gone. Last time I was there was in March when shit was about to hit the fan.

    Arrowhead Festival
    7350 W BELL RD
    STE 101
    Glendale, AZ 85308

    The 7700 W Bell Rd store is still good.

    1. Neither of the Gamestops are, but the location listed was the ThinkGeek, which according to their Facebook page has officially closed.

      Delete
  31. By chance do you know if there will be another wave of closing stores?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I haven't seen anything on social media recently; my theory is that closings are on hold until after the PS5 and XBox OneX launch, as chains usually get allocations of systems per store (so having more stores would help them in that case). I could see them doing some closing sales starting in December for leases that are up at the end of January, but we'll see.

      Delete
  32. I still see the East River Plaza GameStop in Manhattan, NY still listed on the store locator. Can anyone confirm?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Gamestop hasn't updated their store locator since July; a lot of closed stores are still on there. I verified that it's been removed from Google searches and marked as closed on Yelp though, so gamestop.com's the only site left that's still listing it.

      Delete
  33. When is the new list coming out of the 300 more stores that are suppose to be closing?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. They don't release an actual list, especially since that 300 is reported to be throughout 2021; they're apparently going to close 100 more before the end of their 4th quarter (November-January) however, so there will be some after the new system launches (or possibly not until after Christmas, with the sales running for just January).
