There was never a boycott. This is a word the right assigned to the whole thing rather than something anyone really tried to push.
All GCJ did was ban people and throw abuse at anyone saying they would buy it. Hardly a boycott, more of a "fuck off libs". It was the right that slapped this boycott word on it to spin their own stories.
people saying "don't buy thing because ideological reason" sure sounds like a boycott to me :shrug-outta-hecks:
obviously it wasn't organized or backing the labor activism of gamestop employees refusing to stock the shelves, but then again gamer boycotts never are
