In effort to boost their declining videogame sales, Best Buy looks to be forging a bold new campaign that will drive gamers out of Gamestop and Game Crazy and back into Best Buy for their game related purchases-no discount card necessary.

A community member of  Cheap Ass Gamer snapped the above photo at his local Best Buy store located in West Jordan, Utah which outlines their new campaign (sans fine print at the bottom right of the standee):

“Why buy used when you can buy new”

“Best Buy now price matches NEW video games at USED prices from Gamestop or Game Crazy.”

Sure, this might just be persuasion enough for me to start shopping for games at the Big Blue Giant once more, but will it be enough incentive for you? Do you know of any other Besy Buy stores that have already adopting this campaign?

We want to hear your thoughts on Best Buy’s apparent new campaign.

In what may seem like the end of times, GameStop was cursed by the gaming gods and a plague of bees were cast onto employees near Union Square in New York. Until a bee specialist attracted the swarm with eau de queen bee, employees were trapped for several hours concocting yet more ways to take the hottest titles home, return them, and still be able to sell them as “brand new”.
