I've been combing through corporate job openings at #GameStop to figure out how they are positioning themselves. Some of these positions are no longer open, as they have been filled or cancelled. Regardless, the JDs give a lot of info that I found useful.
The TLDR; is that GameStop isn't just building a new eCommerce platform: they're overhauling ALL of their platforms as they move into a new eCommerce business model. I don't think they intend to do all of this work just to sell used video games, trading cards, and Funko pops. I think GameStop is building a completely new type of exchange for token-based transactions or to compete with other eCommerce giants. What they will acquire is still up for grabs, but these are the building blocks for that expansion:
1. Legacy System Enhancements
GME is hiring several engineers and technical SMEs to overhaul legacy applications which place the customer at the center of everything. All of the legacy systems used by in-store associates are being completely redesigned and overhauled, as well as their HRIS (UKG Pro) platform for all matters related to Human Resources.
2. Expansion of platforms into eCommerce
They're hiring SEVERAL engineers and lead developers to create a new (yes, new) platform for customers to engage in eCommerce. There are several JDs that use consistent language such as "experience in payments, transactions, and customer rewards" and "experience with dynamic pricing engines with multiple pricing sources". To me, this indicates some sort of market-based exchange that updates in real-time by browsing competitor prices, like that of Amazon. It could also imply a customer-driven exchange where customers determine the prices. Think "EBay".
Maybe it's just me (because I really want this), but I can also see applications for a digital game exchange like I discussed a weeks ago where you purchase games from a publisher (GTA 6) and subsequently resell them to 2nd hand buyers. Again.. long shot.. But it would be really cool.
They're even hiring a SAP SD Retail Systems Engineer for the sole purpose of analyzing customer transactions and centralizing them within a Customer Activity Repository (CAR) data platform. The data within the CAR is then transformed for multiple consuming applications, including SAP FICO. Another engineer is being hired to do just this for financial reporting purposes.
Oh, and that crappy mobile app? yeah, it's being overhauled as well. There's a position open for Senior Manager, eCommerce & Mobile Engineering just for this purpose. The app will align with this new eCommerce framework and allow customers to quickly do.... whatever they're going to do?
3. Regulatory Adherence
There are several positions open for GRC (governance, risk, compliance) and other roles related to regulatory compliance. The goal is to make sure these new systems (built around consumer data) adhere to consumer privacy rights as they expand this new eCommerce platform.
With that being said, this model can be used for several purposes. I can see a case for purchasing $PYPL (or majority stake) which provides the transactional framework to buy and sell on this new type of eCommerce platform. I can also see the benefit of using this framework in a way that allows for a token-based exchange (like I discussed weeks ago).
There are limitless possibilities and I'm here for it.

GameStop is pleased to announce its collaboration with the Celina 52 Truck Stop to optimize in-store wall utilization.
By converting underperforming changing station infrastructure into PS5 Gaming Kiosks, the partnership aligns square footage with revenue-generating, controller-capable stakeholders.
We remain committed to delivering scalable gaming solutions across retail environments.
Celina 52 Truck Stop@celinatruckstop
Thanks to plummeting birth rates, Celina 52 has partnered with @gamestop and converted our changing stations into PS5 Gaming Kiosks. We can no longer justify dedicating prime wall space to a demographic that generates no revenue for us. Customers have long complained that replacing diapers is disgusting and no fun, so it's time for a change.

The Hollow Men
American capitalism is rotting from the head down. We have replaced the "Owner-Operator"—the risk-taker-with a new, parasitic class of corporate bureaucrat: The Risk-Free Insider.
By "Insider," I am not referring to a specific title. I am referring to the entire administrative state that has captured the modern corporation. This includes the Directors who exist solely to collect fees, the Executives who exist solely to collect bonuses, and the Managers who exist solely to hire consultants.
These are the hollow men of the boardroom. They are masters of PowerPoint. They wear the right suits. They say the right buzzwords about "governance" and "ESG." But they are mercenaries fighting a war with someone else’s ammunition.
In a functioning economy, authority is tied to liability. If you make a bad decision, you lose your own money. That fear of loss is the only thing that keeps a business honest. It forces you to cut waste, obsess over the customer, and stay late to fix what is broken.
Today, we have severed that link.
We have rigged the game so that heads, the Insider wins; tails, the shareholder loses.
If the stock goes up, the Insider collects a massive performance bonus. If the stock crashes due to their own incompetence, they are fired with a "Golden Parachute" worth tens of millions. They are gambling with the house’s money, and they never leave the table poorer than they arrived.
This looting starts in the boardroom.
We have normalized a "Country Club" culture where directors are selected based on social profiling rather than their ability to build a business. The modern board member is often a professional tourist—paid an average of $350,000 a year.
Let’s be brutally honest about what that number represents. The average director is paid nearly five times the GDP per capita of the United States. They earn more for attending four quarterly lunches than the vast majority of Americans earn in five years of hard labor.
And for what?
Most of these directors are "over-boarded," sitting on three or four boards simultaneously. They treat directorships as a gig economy for the elite. They fly in, rubber-stamp a compensation package they didn't read, and fly out. They collect checks from companies they do not understand, do not use, and certainly do not love.
They are not there to ask hard questions. They are there to be collegial. They are there to protect the other Insiders.
And what happens when these boards hire executives who also have no personal capital at risk?
We get the Delegation Economy.
When a Risk-Free Insider faces a crisis—bloated expenses, a broken supply chain, or a stale product—they do not roll up their sleeves. They hire a consultant. They pay a strategy firm millions of shareholder dollars to produce a 100-page deck telling them what they already know.
This is not management. It is intellectual money laundering.
They use shareholder capital to buy an insurance policy for their own careers. If the plan fails, they can blame the consultants. They delegate the work because they are terrified of the responsibility. They would rather preside over a slow, comfortable decline than risk a bold mistake.
While American Insiders are busy optimizing their severance packages, our global competitors are optimizing their products. They are not slowed down by bureaucracy. They are not waiting for a slide deck. They are outworking us.
If we continue to fill our C-suites with administrators instead of operators, we will lose our edge. We will see iconic American franchises hollowed out by fees, managed for the benefit of the Insiders, while the true owners—the shareholders—are left holding the bag.
The time for polite governance is over.
If we want to save the American economy from mediocrity, we must demand a return to the "Owner’s Mentality." We need leaders who treat shareholder capital with the same reverence they treat their own savings. The era of the Risk-Free Insider must end.

Gamestop Development
I'm not going to interview Ryan Cohen today. Ryan is working on something monumental, and he would not be able to say much. We both agreed that "I cannot answer that on advice of counsel" is the last thing anyone wants to hear. I'm on pins and needles like everyone else. Hope to have news and the interview soon. @ryancohen $GME
