JERSEY CITY, NJ —After the two-story Sears store at the Newport Centre Mall closes, video games may appear in its place.

Citing a source, NJ.com said this week that the popular video game-themed restaurant chain Dave & Buster's will occupy part of the space at the mall in Jersey City.

As reported in Patch last Sunday, a Primark store may also replace some of the space currently occupied by the last Sears in New Jersey after it shuts its doors.
