Schedule 13D). Any such beneficial ownership is hereby disclaimed by the

INTRODUCTION.

     No shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"),
of Electronics Boutique Holdings Corp. (the "Issuer") have been purchased,
directly or indirectly, by GameStop Corp. (the "Reporting Person"). The
Reporting Person is making this filing solely because it may be deemed to have
beneficial ownership of the shares reported herein pursuant to the Voting
Agreement (as defined below).
 
     On April 17, 2005, EB Nevada Inc. and James J. Kim (collectively, the "Kim
Group"), entered into a voting agreement (the "Voting Agreement") with the
Issuer and the Reporting Person in connection with the execution of an Agreement
and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") among the Issuer, the Reporting
Person, GameStop, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, GSC Holdings Corp., a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of GameStop, Inc. ("Holdco"), Cowboy
Subsidiary LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary
of Holdco ("GameStop Merger Sub"), and Eagle Subsidiary LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco ("EB Merger Sub"),
providing for a business combination whereby (i) GameStop, Inc. formed Holdco,
(ii) GameStop Merger Sub will merge into the Reporting Person (the "GameStop
Merger") with the Reporting Person as the surviving corporation and (iii) EB
Merger Sub will merge into the Issuer (the "Company Merger" together with the
GameStop Merger, the "Mergers") with the Issuer Person as the surviving
corporation and the Issuer and the Reporting Person will become direct
wholly-owned subsidiaries of Holdco.

     At the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Issuer's
stockholders will be entitled to receive in exchange for each share of Common
Stock (i) $38.15 in cash without interest and (ii) .78795 shares of Holdco Class
A common stock. The Reporting Person's stockholders will be entitled to receive
in exchange for each share of Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share
(the "Class A Common Stock"), of the Reporting Person, one share of Holdco Class
A common stock and for each share of Class B common stock, par value $.001 per
share (the "Class B Common Stock"), of the Reporting Person, one share of Holdco
Class B common stock.

     The Kim Group executed and delivered the Voting Agreement as a condition
and inducement to the Reporting Person's willingness to enter into the Merger
Agreement.

     The Kim Group has agreed to vote all shares of capital stock of the Issuer
beneficially owned by the Kim Group (collectively, the "Shares") in favor of the
adoption of the Merger Agreement. In addition, the Kim Group has agreed to vote
against any proposal (i) in opposition to adoption of the Merger Agreement or in
competition or inconsistent with the Company Merger or any transaction
contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) any Company Takeover Proposal (as
defined in the Merger Agreement), (iii) any change in the management or board of
directors of the Issuer (other than as contemplated in the Merger Agreement) and
(iv) any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or any other obligation of the
Issuer under the Merger Agreement or of the Kim Group under the Voting
Agreement. In the event the board of directors of the Issuer changes its
recommendation with respect to the adoption of the Merger Agreement, the
obligation of the

CUSIP No. 286045109                    13D                         Page 4 of 10

Kim Group to vote the Shares in the manner set forth above shall apply only to
an aggregate number of Shares that is equal to one third of the total number of
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of such matter
and the Kim Group shall cause all remaining Shares to be voted in a manner that
is proportionate to the manner in which all holders of shares of Company Common
Stock (other than the Kim Group) vote in respect of such matter.

     The Kim Group has also agreed that they will not directly or indirectly,
sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the
Shares, or any interest therein, or any other securities convertible into or
exchangeable for capital stock of the Issuer (including derivative securities),
or any voting rights with respect thereto or enter into any contract, option or
other arrangement or understanding with respect thereto (including any voting
trust or agreement and the granting of any proxy) other than (a) pursuant to the
Mergers, (b) encumbrances imposed by margin accounts maintained by any member of
the Kim Group, (c) transfers to family members of any member of the Kim Group or
pledges to investment banks or third party lenders and any other transfers
resulting therefrom, (d) transfers by operation of law, by will or pursuant to
the laws of descent or distribution, or (e) with the prior written consent of
the Reporting Person.

     Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Kim Group has appointed the Reporting
Person's chairman of the board and chief executive officer, R. Richard Fontaine,
and the Reporting Person's president and chief operating officer, Daniel A.
DeMatteo, as its proxy to vote the Shares at any annual or special meeting of
the stockholders of the Issuer (a) in favor of the adoption of the Merger
Agreement and (b) against any action referred to in clauses (i) through (iv)
above.

     The Voting Agreement terminates after the earlier of (a) the termination of
the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms or (b) the day following the
Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

     The descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreement contained
in this Schedule 13D are qualified in their entirety by reference to such
