Zany Brainy pulls all videogames from stores

By
KING OF PRUSSIA, PENNSYLVANIA - Shoppers looking for video games won&#39;t find them much longer at one upscale toy chain. <br> <br> Zany Brainy says it&#39;ll yank all of the video games off its shelves. <br> <br> It says the video game industry is focusing on themes that are too violent for the young kids of the company&#39;s typical customer. <br> <br> Zany Brainy has only stocked games with content suitable for kids of all ages. <br> <br> It made the decision to stop selling video games of any kind after choosing not to stock games geared toward teens - which account for a big chunk of the video game market. <br> <br> A spokeswoman for the chain&#39;s parent company says it seems games featuring violence are the most popular ones and the ones the industry focuses on. <br> <br> She says the company&#39;s FAO Schwarz stores will continue stocking games, because of a customer base including young teens. <br> <br> But she says it will continue screening out violent games.
