                                   FUNCO, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  The Company

Funco, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in March 1988, and is engaged in the
business of providing interactive home entertainment, primarily through the

operated 193 retail locations at June 29, 1997 compared to 173 retail locations
at June 30, 1996.

Note 2.  Fiscal Year

The Company's fiscal year ends on a Sunday on or near March 31 which completes a
52 or 53 week reporting period. All references in this document to years and
quarters relate to fiscal years and quarters. All quarters for fiscal 1998 and
1997 consist of 13 weeks with the following period ending dates:

                                             Ending Date
                             ------------------------------------------

             First                June 29, 1997           June 30, 1996
             Second          September 28, 1997      September 29, 1996
             Third            December 28, 1997       December 29, 1996
             Fourth              March 29, 1998          March 30, 1997

Note 3.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.

The operating results for the quarter ended June 29, 1997, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 29,
1998 due to the seasonal nature of the Company's business.

For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March
30, 1997.

Note 4.  Earnings Per Share

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued FASB Statement No. 128
"Earnings per Share," which will be effective for the Company beginning with the
period ending March 29, 1998. The new accounting rules will change the method of
computation of earnings per share. The Company does not believe that the
statement will materially impact earnings per share.

Comparison of First Quarter Fiscal 1998 to First Quarter Fiscal 1997

Net sales for the quarter increased from $18,862,000 in 1997 to $24,001,000 in
1998, an increase of 27.2%. The Company operated 193 stores at the end of the
first quarter this year compared to 173 stores at the end of the same period
prior year. Comparable store sales for the quarter increased 21%. The large
sales increase for the quarter is the result of growing market penetration of
Sony PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and Sega Saturn products. The Company anticipates
continued market growth for these systems during the 1998 fiscal year.

Cost of sales for the quarter increased from $12,012,000 in 1997 to $14,589,000
in 1998, an increase of 21.5%. The dollar increase in cost of sales is primarily
due to the strong growth in sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales
favorably decreased from 63.7% in 1997 to 60.8% in 1998. This decrease occurred
primarily as the Company's sales mix included a greater proportion of software
products relative to prior year, with a corresponding proportionate reduction of
hardware product sales. The sales mix shift resulted in a reduction of the cost
percentage as software generally has lower cost percentages as compared to
hardware.

Operating expenses for the quarter increased from $5,569,000 in 1997 to
$6,358,000 in 1998, an increase of 14.2%. This increase is primarily due to
higher store payroll expenses related to the quarter's increased sales volume
compared to the same period prior year. Operating expenses decreased favorably
as a percentage of net sales from 29.5% in 1997 to 26.5% in 1998, due to
improved sales leveraging.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased from $1,797,000 in
1997 to $2,108,000 in 1998, an increase of 17.3%. This dollar increase occurred
primarily due to additional payroll costs for staffing administrative functions.
General and administrative expenses decreased favorably as a percentage of net
sales from 9.5% in 1997 to 8.8% in 1998.

The Company generated operating income for the quarter of $946,000 compared to
an operating loss of $516,000 in the same period last year.

Interest expense for the quarter decreased from $9,000 in 1997 to $0 in 1998 as
the Company had no outstanding borrowings. Interest income for the quarter
increased from $35,000 in 1997 to $79,000 in 1998, an increase of 125.7%,
primarily as the Company maintained higher levels of cash and cash equivalents
compared to prior year.

The Company generated net income before income taxes for the quarter of
$1,025,000 compared to a net loss before income taxes of $490,000 in the same
period last year. As a result, the Company recorded income tax expense for the
quarter of $390,000 compared to an income tax benefit of $181,000 for the same
period prior year.

Due to the above factors, the Company generated net income for the quarter of
$635,000, or $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $309,000, or $0.05 per
share, for the same period prior year.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

The Company's business is seasonal with a majority of net sales generated in the
third and fourth fiscal quarters, which include the holiday selling season. In
addition to sales seasonality, the Company's quarterly results are also impacted
by factors including new product introductions and the number and timing of new
store openings. Growth of the store base may obscure the impact of seasonal
influences. Because of the seasonality of the Company's business and the factors
mentioned above, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year. The following table sets
forth net sales by quarter and the number of stores operating at each quarter
end for the past nine quarters:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary ongoing financing requirements are for new store expansion
and inventory. On an interim basis, the Company's financing requirements are
also impacted by quarterly operating results and seasonal fluctuations in
inventory levels.

During the three months ended June 29, 1997, the Company generated $174,000 of
cash from operating activities and used $519,000 of cash in investing
activities, including $493,000 for capital expenditures. For the three months
ended June 30, 1996, the Company used $1,570,000 of cash for operating
activities and used $35,000 of cash in investing activities.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company amended and renewed its revolving credit
facility. Effective June 30, 1997, the Company has a $3,000,000 unsecured
revolving credit facility with a commercial bank, priced at the bank's prime
rate, seasonally increasing to $10,000,000. The interest rate on outstanding
borrowings under the facility in place as of June 29, 1997, was 8 3/4%, equal to
the bank's prime rate plus one quarter of one percent. The facility requires the
Company to maintain certain financial ratios and achieve certain operating
results. The Company currently has no borrowings under this facility.

During fiscal 1998, the Company plans to incur capital expenditures of
approximately $5,500,000 for new store openings, other store expenditures,
enhancements to corporate information systems and general corporate purposes.
The Company incurred capital expenditures of $1,548,000 in fiscal 1997.

The Company believes that cash from operations and funds available under its
revolving credit facility will provide sufficient funds for financing planned
store openings, working capital needs and other capital expenditures for at
least 12 months.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its Chief Executive Officer were originally named as defendants
in a civil lawsuit filed on August 17, 1995 in the United States District Court,
District of Minnesota, entitled Christopher Cannon v. Funco, Inc. and David R.
Pomije. This was a putative class action in which the named plaintiff in the
Class Action Complaint purported to represent a class of all purchasers of the
Company's common stock during the putative class period of May 18, 1994 through
December 15, 1994. On October 18, 1996 the court dismissed the state common law
claims with prejudice and dismissed the federal securities claims without
prejudice, giving the plaintiff leave to file an Amended Complaint. The
plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint on January 6, 1997.

The Amended Complaint is a similarly styled class action suit and alleges the
Company's share price was artificially inflated, asserting various claims under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. Plaintiff seeks damages in an
unspecified amount plus costs and attorney's fees. The Company and its Chief
Executive Officer continue to believe that the claim is entirely without merit,
deny liability and intend to defend the litigation vigorously. The Company and
its Chief Executive Officer filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Class Action
Complaint in its entirety.

                  this Agreement to be immediately due and payable in full,
                  whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable in
                  full, without any presentment, demand, protest or other notice
                  of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the

                           (c) The Bank may, without notice to the Borrower or
                  any other person, apply any and all money owing by the Bank to
                  the Borrower to the payment of principal, interest and other
                  charges, fees and expenses under the Revolving Note and this
                  Agreement.

                           (d) The Bank may exercise and enforce its rights and
                  remedies under the Security Agreement, the other writings
                  contemplated hereby, the Uniform Commercial Code and any other
                  applicable law.

                  In addition, immediately upon the commencement of any
                  proceeding under any bankruptcy law by or against the
                  Borrower, and at the Bank's option upon the occurrence of an
                  Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a sum
                  equal to the then outstanding amount of the Letters of Credit,
                  without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
                  kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
                  Borrower. The Borrower grants the Bank a first lien and
                  security interest in all such funds paid to the Bank,
                  including without limitation all instruments evidencing such
                  funds, and all products and proceeds of the foregoing, as
                  security for all now existing and hereafter arising debts,
                  obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Bank.

                  l. Exhibit A to the Credit Agreement is deleted.

                  m. Exhibit D to the Credit Agreement is amended to read as set
forth in Exhibit D attached hereto.


         2. The Bank releases and terminates its security interest under the
Borrower's Security Agreement dated June 20, 1995, as amended, and such amended
Security Agreement is terminated.

         3. Except as amended or terminated herein or herewith, all provisions
of the Credit Agreement and all other agreements of the parties remain in full
force and effect. All references to Marquette Capital Bank are changed to
Marquette Capital Bank, N.A. in all other agreements and certificates of the
parties. No provision of this Amendment can be amended, modified, waived or
terminated, except by a writing executed by the Borrower and the Bank. The
Borrower shall pay to the Bank on demand all of the Bank's costs and expenses,
including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, in
connection with this Amendment, the writings executed herewith, and the
transactions described herein and therein. This Amendment shall bind and benefit
the parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided, the Borrower
shall not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Amendment without
the prior written consent of the Bank, and any assignment in violation of this
sentence shall be null and void. This Amendment and the Credit Agreement as
amended herein shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of Minnesota (excluding conflict of law rules).

         Executed as of the date first above written.

                      AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE

                                                             Date: June 30, 1997

                  For valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged by the parties, the $10,000,000.00 Amended and
Restated Promissory Note of Funco, Inc. dated June 30, 1996, payable to the
order of Marquette Capital Bank, now known as Marquette Capital Bank, N.A., is
amended and restated to read as follows:

$10,000,000.00                                            Minneapolis, Minnesota

                  FOR VALUE RECEIVED, on June 30, 1998, the undersigned, FUNCO,
INC., promises to pay to the order of MARQUETTE CAPITAL BANK, N.A. (the "Bank"),
at its office in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or at such other place as any present
or future holder of this Note may designate from time to time, the principal sum
of (i) $10,000,000.00, or (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all
advances of credit made by the Bank to the undersigned pursuant to this Note as
shown in the records of any present or future holder of this Note, whichever is
less, plus interest thereon from the date of each advance in whole or in part
included in such amount until this Note is fully paid, computed on the basis of
the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year, at an annual rate that
shall always be equal to the Prime Rate and that shall change when and as the
Prime Rate shall change. Interest is due and payable on the last day of each
month and at maturity. The term "Prime Rate" means the rate established by the
Bank from time to time in its sole discretion as its Prime Rate; the Bank may
lend to its customers at rates that are at, above or below the Prime Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, after an Event of Default this Note shall bear
interest until paid at 2% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise then in
effect, which rate shall continue to vary based on further changes in the Prime
Rate. The undersigned shall not permit the unpaid principal balance of this Note
to exceed $3,000,000.00, except during the period from September 15, 1997
through December 15, 1997.

                  All or any part of the unpaid balance of this Note may be
prepaid at any time without penalty. At the option of the then holder of this
Note, any payment under this Note may be applied first to the payment of other
charges, fees and expenses under this Note and any other agreement or writing in
connection with this Note, second to the payment of interest accrued through the
date of payment, and third to the payment of principal. Also, at the option of
the holder of this Note, if there is any overpayment of interest under this
Note, the holder may hold the excess and apply it to future interest accruing
under this Note. Amounts may be advanced and readvanced under this Note,
provided the principal balance outstanding shall not exceed $10,000,000.00
during the period from September 15, 1997 through December 15, 1997, and shall
not exceed $3,000,000.00 at any other time.

                  The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit
Agreement dated June 20, 1995 by and between the undersigned and the Bank, as it
may be amended from time to time, shall constitute an Event of Default under
this Note.

                  Upon the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy
law by or against any maker of this Note, this Note automatically shall become
immediately due and payable for the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note
plus accrued interest and other charges, fees and expenses under this Note
without any declaration, presentment, demand, protest, or other notice of any
kind. Upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default and at any time
thereafter, the then holder of this Note may, at its option, declare this Note
to be immediately due and payable and thereupon this Note shall become
immediately due and payable for the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note
plus accrued interest and other charges on this Note without any presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind.

                  The undersigned (i) waives demand, presentment, protest,
notice of protest, notice of dishonor and notice of nonpayment of this Note; and
(ii) agrees that when or at any time after this Note becomes due the then holder
of this Note may offset or charge the full amount owing on this Note against any
account then maintained by the undersigned with such holder of this Note without
notice. Interest on any amount under this Note shall continue to accrue, at the
option of any present or future holder of this Note, until such holder receives
final payment of such amount in collected funds in form and substance acceptable
to such holder.

                  The extensions of credit under this Note are made under
Section 47.59 of the Minnesota Statutes. No waiver of any right or remedy under
this Note shall be valid unless in writing executed by the holder of this Note,
and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose given. All rights and remedies of all present and future
holders of this Note shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly,
concurrently or successively. This Note shall bind the undersigned and the
successors and assigns of the undersigned. This Note shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Minnesota
(excluding conflict of law rules).

                  THE UNDERSIGNED REPRESENTS, CERTIFIES, WARRANTS AND AGREES
THAT THE UNDERSIGNED HAS READ ALL OF THIS NOTE AND UNDERSTANDS ALL OF THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE.

                  Executed as of June 30, 1997.
