Gaming Journey

?

A quick store visit to GAMEAn opportunity at the door with stronger out-facing signage

Playable handheld demonstration appealing

Gamers yes, what about parents? - how to attract the non-game enthusiast but the one paying the bill? Blocked isle a problem too

Certification problematic too, how about parent permission slips?

Pre-owned opportunity – why not offer something very low price for pre-owned games – DLC?

Looking at the opportunities in store…Store

Gaming Journey

Physical ownership still important, PS4/Xbox should consider digital + PHYSICAL item

Pre-owned carries lot of interest but price sometimes prohibitive as is some content

Physical ownership still important – what about offers on PS4 or Xbox live that allow extra physical posted item – poster? Disk? Something extra

In-app purchase games starting to appear in store

Trying devices still a draw to customers

Why not trailers for games on a screen?

Displays nice appeal

Gaming Journey

Different game store offers games, Movies, Digital equipment

Displays not so clear but interesting to gamer

PS3 and PS4 together could confuse

Marketing opportunity? Pc Games – console gamers also play PC? Combine offers?

Feature films on offer too

Think new marketing…stairways

Gaming Journey

Curry’s little or NO experience for customers

Stairways often overlooked and so too are what people do after shopping for games…

Curry’s offered a hidden deserted and non-existent experience for gaming fans. But a good place to pester mum and dad on other shopping journeys!

Marketing opportunity?
