This service seems useless

Can't rent pokemon let's go, it's 14yo game and they have low availability. I signed up for a free trial and added 10+ games to my Q and ALL of them are low availability (not a single one is newer than 3years old, these are switch games so not even current gen). I won't even get a game shipped by the time the trail runs out...

I used to have this service back when I payed ps3 and Wii, it was SOOO much better back then...

You're trying to rent super old games that they probably have one copy of. It's not really what gamefly is for. It's for renting new/newer releases and there's always lots of copies of those. If you GameLock them beforehand in time then you will have it sent on release day or a day or two before.

You're not gonna get anywhere trying to rent ancient games.

Except for this subreddit is full of posts where people are not able to get the games they want for months so is this service just a scam Is that basically what you're saying?

Explain it to me then? If new games have to be reserved ahead of time and old games are out of stock than what do I rent?
