FROM THE FRONTLINE


Kelly Watson from Grainger Games in Newcastle is on the frontline this week…


What makes your store unique? The Newcastle branch is the original Grainger Games store. Based in the heart of the city, it is a pleasure to serve our customers, many of whom have continued to shop with us for the last 13 years, in what is an exciting and thriving working environment.


What do you think will be the biggest selling game of Q3? And why? Halo: Reachhas generated a lot of interest and pre-orders from our customers. Based on the amount of enquiries, this will be a great seller in Q3.


Can motion controllers Move and Kinect reinvigorate the retail market? Definitely – we have had many people visit the store to ask about these products. We take this opportunity to demonstrate the features and highlight how revolutionary the technology is. These new devices are creating an ever- increasing buzz with our customers and our pre-order figures reflect this.

Grainger Games’ original Newcastle store has reams of dedicated customers, says Kelly Watson


What do you think of pre-owned buyers being charged for content? So far I have not received any negative feedback from our customers regarding this extra content. Customers are already accustomed to


purchasing points to enable them to access additional map packs and characters, so have not been reluctant to purchase pre-owned items which require


payment for extra online features. Our value pricing reflects this content offer.


What do you think about the proposed VAT increase to 20 per cent? I am confident Grainger Games will continue to provide customers with the best priced products. We always offer the most competitive prices to drive sales and promote savings to our customers.
