GameStop buys French chain for $700 million, gains 332 stores


A beginning is a very delicate time. Know then, it is the year Ten Thousand One Ninety One. The Universe is ruled by GameStop Emperor Daniel DeMatteo IV, ... my father. In this time, the most precious substance in the Universe is the video game. The games extend life, the games expand consciousness, games are vital to existence.

The Gaming Guild and its Navigators, whom the games have mutated over eight thousand years, began solidifying their control over the universe when the precursor to the guild, an ancient corporation called GameStop, purchased a Francais company called Micromania for $700 million. GameStop gained 332 stores and increased its European store count to 1077 (global: 5889). At the time, the company said it would increase its earnings for the year. There was no way to know the truth.
