In Q4 2020, GameStop generated $228.20 million that is 11% of total revenue from this segment. However, the revenue from collectibles witnessed a decline of 7% year-over-year growth from $245 million in Q4 2019.

GameStop also offers video game accessories which are different pieces of hardware that are required to use a console. Video game accessories are everything except the console itself like memory cards, controllers, headsets, skins, power adapters, and other audio/visual cables. GameStop offers accessories of brands like Atrix, Logitech, HYPERX, MSI, Razer, ASUS, Sony, Microsoft, etc.

In Q4 2020, GameStop’s revenue from hardware and accessories contributed 55% of the total revenue amounting to $1.16 billion. In Q4 2020, this is the only segment that witnessed a positive year-over-year growth of 21% from $965 million in Q4 2019.

Software

GameStop offers new as well as pre-owned video game software, digital software, and PC entertainment software that can be used on current and certain prior generation consoles. It also provides digital products which allow the customer to download software or play directly on the internet. GameStop also provides a variety of in-game digital currency, and digital downloadable content (“DLC”).

In Q4 2020, GameStop witnessed adverse year-over-year growth of 27% from $1 billion in Q4 2019 to $ 731.20 million in Q4 2020. 

The major reason for the decline in overall revenue earned by GameStop was the material disruption and delay in supply chains caused due to lockdown that impacted the development, manufacture, and distribution of the products. Apart from that, due to lockdown, 90% of GameStop stores were closed which also affected the revenue generated in Q4 2020.
