October 30, 2008
Highlights for the Week of October 19-25:
- Led by the Nintendo Wii console, video games made up the majority of the most coveted items online last week. Nearly a quarter million people shopped online for a Wii last month. The three leading consoles and their related games made up 6 of the top 10 as well as half of the top 20.
- Aside from the traditional gaming systems, the Leapster, an educational handheld gaming system continues to be popular. Other electronic devices, notably iPods and GPS devices, fared quite well too.
- Online interest in the High School Musical 3 soundtrack jumped 256% from the prior week in the lead-up to the film’s theatrical release last weekend.
- Interestingly enough, the top DVD last week doesn’t even come out for another month.
