Gamestop Getting Into Imports?

Is Gamestop/EBgames getting into the import biz? If so, they're just putting their toes in, trying to see if the water is cold. Spotted by the Gamespot (not Gamestop) "Retail Radar", two big name import titles are now for sale on the North American branch of the retailer's web site.

Just two DS games, Naruto: Saikyo Ninja Daikesshu 4 and Jump Superstars show up when searching for import titles. Both are safe bets from a sales standpoint, as the fanbase for both is strong and the titles, like all DS games, are region free.

Jump Superstars has also been spotted at major brick and mortar retailers like Best Buy and Fry's, so this ought not sound many alarms for smaller importers like NCSX or Play-Asia, but could lead to more.
