Unsurprisingly, lots of glass windows are fantastic for showing off video game merch.
Reddit user thepinksheep22 popped up this shot of a new EB Games location at the Stocklands shopping centre in Cairns, Queensland. The move is a temporary one, with the previous location being refurbished to allow for the inclusion of a ZiNG store.
But damn, I kind of wish EB would stay. The spot where they are is in a old jewellers’ outlet, meaning it’s completely flanked by a lot of glass cases and open air. It means there’s a lot less space for large, wide posters, and you can’t stick SALE SALE SALE HEY GUYS DID YOU KNOW THERE’S A SALE posters everywhere.
Honestly, given how important Zing merch is to the EB business, this might be a better way to show it off. Think of all the limited editions and collectibles you could show off to people walking past. And isn’t it nice to actually see something from the outside that isn’t a fire hazard?
