I dont even know where to start when it comes to the stock market. I want to buy some GME, but I don't know how to or what the best place to go is.
Any advice for a beginner?

As others have suggested, Fidelity.
If you're going to purchase more than one share I would suggest putting at least 1/3 of your purchases in a Roth IRA which you can also open up through Fidelity.
Why?
Because any stocks that you own for less than a year that you sell you have to pay short-term capital gains taxes on which is about 40%. But if it's in a Roth IRA retirement account there are no taxes but you can't withdraw that money until you're 59 and a half without paying a penalty. Inside your Roth IRA You can buy and sell whatever stocks you want without having to worry about any tax implications.
