The fires are crazy. I live in Orange County, CA. 20 mins from LA. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. Love your content, very honest and informative.
I’m in South Dakota and it’s just a matter of time. The customer service is awful and the employees have nasty attitudes. Always shocked me for someone that spend a great deal of money at their store. They had no interest in being friendly to their regulars. I felt unwelcome, and I’m a quiet person that stays to myself. It’s mind blowing, but I knew this day was coming.
Said for all the people who lost their jobs. Retail is hemorrhaging left and right. Store closing and vacancies are on the rise. We have ghost towns coming soon.
I know for the North East I see way more independent games stores in small to small medium towns and cities. For anything like PS4 and back you go to the local store over GameStop, I do like more GameStop's getting more games I have 2 near me and they are always bare bones.
Game Xchange is the best alternative imo. I have bought so many games and consoles from them over the years. And i was at one the other day and they already had a copy of Sonic X Shadow Generations for the ps5. They also had tons of ps5s even a slim with the disc drive. Dont even need Gamestops where i live
best bet, if you're worried about fires, you should look into a root cellar type of setup to protect your stuff from fires. then have the doors made out of metal, not wood/burnable. And make sure the root cellar is completely underground with dirt all around.
bruh I envy people who live in america where there are bunch of stores specifically for retro games...Wanna buy games so bad but can'T even order online due to my country's regulations... ;--;

Stay safe. There may have been a lot of collection that were destroyed by fire or heavy smoke.
The GameStop close to my job closed almost a year ago. Luckily we have a Game X Change nearby as well.

I've been seen many gamestop closing down it's sad to see a next great store soon be no more
Would a fire proof safe protect games or would the heat and smoke destroy the electronics?
good question, you'd need to research alloys
