GameStops vd anklagas för att ha sålt föremål från Game Informers arkiv på eBay

Ryan Cohens eBay-auktioner av samlarobjekt, tänkta att finansiera ett bud på marknadsplatsen, har väckt anklagelser om att vissa föremål kommer från det tidigare arkivet hos Game Informer.

Den 6 maj publicerade Cohen länkar till auktionerna, vilka inkluderar inplastade retrospel, statyer, en GameStop-keps, butiksmatta och andra minnessaker, som alla åtföljs av ett signerat exemplar av hans uppköpsbrev. Frank Cifaldi, grundare av Video Game History Foundation, hävdade på Bluesky att flera objekt verkar ha tagits från det legendariska Game Informer-arkivet, som bevarade decennier av datorspelshistoria fram till dess att GameStop lade ner publikationen 2024.
