GameSpot stores in Philadelphia are now fingerprinting customers who trade in games. The records are stored in a database to help law enforcement track down thieves who fence stolen goods.

There is a law in place that makes this possible, though GameStop isn’t actually forced to abide by the pawnbroker’s ordinance. Customers don’t seem too pleased with the retailer’s requirement, so it will be interesting to see how long this continues.

The only Nintendo-related items I spot here are rock candy controllers for Wii U. Definitely one of the worst weeks we’ve seen thus year!
