Gamestation was an independently owned company until October 2002, when it was acquired by Blockbuster UK.

Fellow graduates of York University, Stephen Hall and Julian Gladwin founded Gamestation in 1993, with the aid of a £3,000 grant from the PYBT. They started trading from a small shop in York in September 1993, relocating to a larger and better located site after a few months.

Their second outlet was opened in Leeds two years later followed by stores in Bradford and Hull. Stores have opened steadily around the country since then, and now range from Plymouth to Newcastle, and Swansea to Ipswich. Administration was initially carried out from store, but a dedicated Head Office and Warehouse was soon required, together with staff to support the stores.

Gamestation is the fastest growing specialist video games retailer in the UK. Currently trading from 68 outlets with a mail order service and interactive website (soon to be updated with our new brand), we have further outlets planned to open across the uk this year. Gamestation has the largest selection of new and pre-owned games available in the uk. Everything from megadrive to the latest PS2 titles.
