It's kind of sad to see it go. I worked at one over winter break one year back in college. It was kind of an awful job but to see the whole thing collapse now is just disheartening. Maybe I'm just old but there is something appealing about the ability to just paw through all the physical game boxes looking for one game and discovering others along the way.
B&N owned Gamestop. They used the same business model of buying out the competetion to build it up. At some point Gamestop may have separated from B&N but for the longest time if you worked at one you could get employee discounts at both.
