Cohen attempted to transform GameStop from a failing brick-and-mortar store into a digital storefront for the latest game releases. Despite his efforts and the hiring (and subsequent firing) of several Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) executives, GameStop's software revenue fell 30% in the first quarter compared to the previous year. The report highlighted that the company now resembles a hybrid of a traditional game retailer and a toy store, selling items like Pokemon plushies and Funko pop figurines, but toy sales also declined by 20%.
