There are over 70 GameStop locations in the Garden State. South Jersey GameStop locations include Atlantic City, Mays Landing, Vineland, Cherry Hill, Rio Grande and Somers Point.
My boys use to drag me to GameStop at least once a week when they were young. They would get so excited when the game they were waiting for finally become available.
