An ICv2 Release.  ICv2 has announced the release of the ICv2 Retailers Guide to Games #10, which is being released to the trade by Alliance Games, Diamond Comic Distributors, Koen Book Distributors, and other sources.

In this issue we take a look back at 2005 across all the major game categories to pick out the lone bright spot in what turned out to be a second straight year of decline for the non-video game market, and we also examine the Top Ten performers in each of the main game categories, CCGs, Miniature Games, RPGs and Board Games.  For a summary of what happened in the game market in 2005 (see '2005 a Tough Year for Game Retailers').

For game retailers, if your distributor is on the list above, just ask for your free copy of the Guide, or if not, e-mail Dennis Viau at our office at DViau@icv2.com to request a copy.  For others, it's available for a small charge at the ICv2 Online Store (click here).
