Man is saving up for a Switch 2, so he decides to head to GameStop. 17 controllers later, he had $242: ‘How they keep the doors open’

Have you been sitting on a mountain of old, beat-up video game controllers? Then you should have checked out GameStop’s recent trade-in promotion. For one TikToker, a reviewer and game collector known as EverythingDRC, the promotion helped him make inroads toward his goal of getting a Switch 2.

He successfully traded in a variety of controllers to build a large credit to snag the console. He then took to TikTok to share what worked and what didn’t with his viewers. Per GameRant, GameStop offered to accept broken or non-functional game controllers and provide the full trade-in credit value of a working unit.
