US: Pre-owned comes to Wal-Mart

US supermarket giant Wal-Mart has begun selling pre-owned games for the first time.

The ASDA parent has previously installed trade-in kiosks in its stores – a move which has been followed by the likes of Best Buy and the UK’s very own GAME.

Now, however, Wal-Mart has also launched a standalone in-store pre-owned section – suggesting its kiosk experiment has been a success.

According to the firm’s website, each pre-owned game the grocer handles will be ‘polished, tested and inspected prior to shipping’.
