April 28, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
COLLEGE PARK, MD - April 2007 - Goozex, Inc. a leading video game trading community, has announced the addition of Apple Mac games to its trading service. Goozex is the only video game trading platform to offer Mac owners the ability to trade Mac games. Goozex.com's introduction of Mac games signals the company's recognition of the high potential growth in the niche market of Apple gaming. According to Apple's 2006 Annual Report, the company had 2.4 million American Macintosh unit sales in 2006, or $7.4 billion in personal computing revenue. Macintosh unit sales and revenue had an 11% and 18% annual increase in North America, respectively. Goozex expects Apple's Mac products, and Mac published games, sales to continue to rapidly grow at this rate.
"The whole idea behind Goozex.com is to give gamers across all platforms easier and cheaper access to games for all platforms," said Jon Dugan, Founder and COO of Goozex, Inc. "We are adding Mac games to position ourselves in what we believe will be a rapidly growing gaming segment. Apple has traditionally held a small but vibrant personal computing niche, and it has been gaining market share at such a fast rate that we think Mac games can be a dynamic source of growth for Goozex."
As the only video game trading service that supports Mac games, Goozex aims to provide the Mac community access to more games at a lower cost and to create a sense of community amongst Mac gamers. Apple Mac users can now open a free account on Goozex.com and start trading their games using Goozex's peer-to-multi-peer service at a cost of only $1 per game. Goozex is also offering a coupon (enter code: "Mac-Trader") that gives Mac users a head start on trading — five free trade credits and 100 bonus points.
Goozex's new Mac video game trading service is offered throughout North America.
