Goodbye to one of Londons best retro shops

Another loss for gaming as Games Focus in London closes down.

Such a shame as I'd got a few interesting games there before and was planning another day out to London to go there again

We spoke about it a bit here:

Always a great shame to see another independant game store close

Another one of my favorite games stores closed down recently too, Thatz Entertainment at Lakeside shopping centre in Essex.

 They were a normal games shop but had a small and fairly well stocked retro corner. There is now a wig shop in it's place!?!? I find it extremely hard to imagine how wigs could possibly be more of a seller than games.

 Now I will just have to spend my time in the whisky shop next door to where it used to be next time I am dragged shopping by the other half.  Luckily Thatz Entertainment haven't stopped trading for good as they have another shop a bit further away in Romford. It's just a lot less convenient as I rarely go to Romford.
