Episode 327 : The Death or Evolution of Gamestop

Gamestop is making major changes, but is it enough?

Greetings adventurers, and welcome to this weeks installment of The Surly Nerd! After our prelude, we head right into the weekly raid (our news roundup).
Kicking things off this week, huge casting news comes to us about the upcoming remake of “The Stand”. We continue our King talk with his newest book getting an adaptation and Kojima open up about what real life events influenced the making of Death Stranding.
Also this week, we have Wonder Woman making her black label debut. Dragon Quest 1-3 are coming to the Switch and Project Resistance is a new Resident Evil game that you should keep an eye on. We close out the news with a discussion about Fallout 76’s new microtransactions and what they mean for the future of the game.
Our Boss Room this week is about Gamestop’s plans to change their stores to hopefully save them.
As always, we appreciate all our adventurers who listen to the show every week and we look forward to your feedback on what we discuss! (info@thesurlynerd.com!)
Grab a drink and settle on in for this weeks action packed episode of…The Surly Nerd!
