GAME has started stocking EA & Nintendo titles on its website, with in store stock expected to appear on shelves during the upcoming week.
Nintendo title Pandora’s Tower has appeared on the GAME website, though it will only be for a limited run. Pandora’s Tower seems to be the only Nintendo title stocked since January, which seems to suggest that the publisher is testing the waters before fully committing to supplying more titles to GAME.
EA seems to have more faith in the high street chain’s recovery, with GAME’s website now having Mass Effect 3, FIFA Street & Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 all available for purchase. This is all good news for the GAME brand, though other publishers, such as Capcom, seem to be staying away for the time being.

I hope the Game Group will be forced to lower their prices in order to stay compitive without causing a pricing war between the supermarkets as Game are too small to take part in a pricing war. I mean, Game only has games whilst supermarkets have other items to help cover any potential losses.
I wonder if we will see a decrease in the amount of shelf space that is dedicated to preowned as 90% is way too much for a gaming specialist, an indie shop can get away with that due to them being small but a massive company can’t.
I hope they will bring back Saturday deals as i remeber my local Game doing them a few years ago. I wonder if Gamestation will be dismantled over the course of the next few months in order to cut costs or if they will sell it off?
I’m surprised that EA allowed them to sell their games so soon considering their hate of preowned. :O
