Amazon reports electronics trends - e-Watch - Amazon.com Inc - Brief Article

DSN Retailing Today, April 22, 2002

SEATTLE -- While the much-hyped GameCube and X-Box were expected to sell like gang-busters, it has been an old standby, Playstation 2, that continues to fly off the virtual shelves of Amazon.com. It's the popularity of the controversial Grand Theft Auto III, Amazon's best-selling video game, that has this game console outselling the newer models.

Other electronics trends at the Seattle-based e-tailer are portable devices, such as video games, digital cameras, two-way radios and a GPS system geared toward outdoor enthusiasts. At the Toysrus/Amazon portal, Game Boy Advance continued to be a hot item.
