Gamestation is a video games specialist based in Basingstoke which currently operates more than 250 high street stores across the UK. It is a subsidiary of the larger GAME group, which bought out the firm in 2007. While GAME stores try cater to the broader market, Gamestation concentrates on serving specialist �gamers', specifically those who treat video games as a serious hobby rather than an enjoyable pastime.
The company has its own website, gamestation.co.uk, while its stores seek to follow GAME's own retail model. Products at both stores are similarly-priced, and both offer trade-in services. Gamestation stands out due to its selection of games which are now hard to find for older consoles.
The gamestation.co.uk website allows customers to place pre-orders and make online purchases using discount vouchers. Gamestation runs a number of regular promotions including free UK delivery, invitations to join the Elite Reward scheme and special prices on the latest consoles.
Parents can use discount codes to purchase Gamestation E-gift vouchers through this website. Alternatively, they can use a discount voucher to buy Gamestation games for their children on a two-for-one basis. Whatever promotion shoppers are looking for, Gamestation offers something for everyone.
Gamestation stores are a good place to meet like-minded individuals and exchange tips on the latest products. However, the �Gamestation Community' webpage offers an online opportunity to interact with other users through game reviews and blog entries.
