On January 20, video game retailer, Bitcoin investor, and Funko Pop graveyard GameStop posted a lengthy comment to Twitter about a so-called "Infinite Money Glitch" that was recently discovered by YouTube content creator RJCmedia. How the glitch worked, apparently, was that if you bought a Nintendo Switch 2 for $415 and then immediately traded it back in along with the purchase of any pre-owned game, a promo would be triggered that increased the value of the trade-in to $472. Repeat this a few times, and you could rack up a few hundred bucks in trade-in credit.
The video game retailer said in a regulatory filing on Wednesday that Cohen would have to grow its market capitalization to $100 billion and it would need to hit $10 billion in cumulative performance EBITDA - or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization - for his award to fully vest. GameStop said Cohen won't receive any guaranteed pay, which it defines as no salary, no cash bonuses, and no stock that simply vests over time.
GameStop, the video game retail giant, is hosting a "Trade Anything Day" on Saturday, Dec. 6, where people can bring in almost anything to trade in for a store credit. There are a few ground rules, however. For one, the company says the item must fit in a 20-by-20-by-20 box. So, if you were hoping to trade in your retro Sony Trinitron CRT TV from the '90s, you're out of luck (although you may find another customer willing to buy it).
You might have already spent a ton of money building up a modest collection of amiibo, Nintendo's NFC-equipped figures for Switch and Switch 2. But whether you're looking to add extras, or you're just starting out, GameStop has several amiibo figures starting at just $5.99. On Bluesky, Wario64 pointed out the page that contains all of the models selling at up to 70 percent off.
