GME

Gamestop Corp.

One of the world's largest video game retailers, GameStop sells new and pre-owned games, consoles, accessories, and collectibles for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo, both in stores and online. It began in 1984 in Dallas as Babbage's, named for Charles Babbage, the computing pioneer, before mergers and a 1999 Barnes & Noble rebrand gave it its current name—suggested by an executive who remembered a bookstore chain called BookStop. Its headquarters sit in Grapevine, Texas.
