Less exclusives to GAME would be nice – we can hope, right? It is causing us problems again already. You would have thought that publishers would have remembered other retailers existed after the dramas earlier this year.
What summer releases do you think will do well? Some of the summer releases are looking strong,
especially Amazing Spider- Manand Ice Age 4. And I am sure the official Olympics game from Sega will sell well.
Have you had much interest in the Wii U? There’s no real consumer awareness of Wii U. Yes people are talking about it,
but I am not sure how many customers would spend £250 to £300 on it. I think the cost of a second controller could make or break the deal for many.
What has been selling well recently? Skylandershas been very good and has generated us some strong repeat footfall as customers come back in each week to see which figures and packs we have in stock.
