Leading global games retailer GameStop is celebrating the opening of its 5,000th store in Jackson, California. The milestone keeps the chain on-track for its target of opening between 500 and 700 new stores in 2007.

"With more customers being attracted to the video game category, they will increasingly find a GameStop convenient to them," GameStop’s vice chairman and COO Dan DeMatteo stated.

"This landmark store opening underscores the strength of our business model and represents a spectacular effort on behalf of our 44,000 employees worldwide."
