May 20, 2009 // Franchising.com // Newport Beach, Calif., – Gamer Doc™, the retail video game store franchise that delivers a new and interactive customer experience, today announced the sale of its first store in Raleigh, North Carolina to new owners Jim and Kim Hamilton.
"We are very pleased to announce the first Gamer Doc store in North Carolina," said Jim Belanger, president of Gamer Doc. "This builds on the strong momentum we started the year with, when we opened three stores in the first quarter. The Raleigh store strengthens our presence on the East Coast, and we look forward to continuing to extend our footprint across the U.S. and Canada throughout the rest of the year."
Gamer Doc currently has stores open in Bear, Delaware; Burlington, Ontario; Highland Park, California; Miami, Florida; and Springfield, Pennsylvania. The Hamiltons plan to open their store this summer.
"The response to the Gamer Doc concept and the innovative shopping experience we are bringing to retail has been tremendous," Belanger said.

Customers can buy, rent, sell, pick-up, pre-order or trade-in a game, or drop a disc or console off for repair. HD flat-panel monitors and cables are also available, and the knowledgeable staff is happy to show customers how to hook-up their systems, share tips on how to improve their scores, try out new games, and answer any questions they might have.
"Gamer Doc is more than a video game store; it is an entertainment center," Belanger said. "We are here to make sure that shopping at Gamer Doc is an enjoyable experience that keeps our customers coming back."
