    Retail New Zealand's Chief Executive says the closure of Australian retailer EB Games - would have a wide reaching impact


    The Australian video-game retailer's proposing shutting its 38 New Zealand stores and its Distribution Centre.

    Staff reportedly have until Monday to feed back on the plan.

    She says with so many stores across the country, hundreds of staff could be out of work if they decide to shut up shop.
