One thing to keep in mind about the games industry of the past is the character of trying to buy a video game was way different than it is now. Today, you can hop online and upon hearing about a game that's been released have it playing on your computer or game console in maybe an hour. Back then, you would have to go to the store, see if they had anything remotely interesting, and when they didn't because of course they didn't, you have to just wait until they restocked and hope they had something interesting then.
I assume that you could have some luck buying stuff through mail order if you were in the us, but it's a big wide world out there and sometimes the computer store was all you have.
