World's largest online retailer offering gift cards in return for old video games.
E-commerce giant Amazon has unveiled a video game trade-in program , offering customers gift cards to the most popular store on the Web in return for old video games.
It's a move that could position Amazon to better capitalize on one of the healthier media segments: games. Reselling used games also could be potentially lucrative for the world's largest online retailer, considering that prices on pre-played titles can still remain fairly high while still representing a discount from the $50 and $60 cost of new products.
Amazon is accepting old games from the major console systems, including Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo Wii and Sony PlayStation. The online retail giant is not accepting PC games, however, a move that has garnered criticism in the site's discussion forum.
