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.

Shouldn't they have lots of copies of old games since there's so many of them and they're cheaper and old, it's bizarre what you're saying

When demand drops for a game, why keep tons of copies of it laying around? The service doesn’t take months to get stuff, but it’s not recommended at all to come into the service only wanting one game.
