WHAT IS THE GREATER GAMES INDUSTRY reference?
GGI is a reference for retailers, publishers, buyers, and distributors.
The reference is the only comprehensive collection of information on game
publishers, manufacturers, and importers. Inside GGI you will find over
45,000 products, listing nearly 700 publishers and manufacturers. We
endeavor to list all known products which the manufacturer states are
currently in print and are in general distribution. GGI reaches the USA,
Canada, Europe, the UK, Australia and other countries. In each Edition
of GGI there are more than 6,000 revisions and changes made before the
catalog goes to print.
While we are the publishers of the Greater Games Industry reference,
we do not sell the games listed.
We encourage buyers to
contact the publishers and/or a distributor to locate and purchase these
products. If you are a consumer please contact the local game stores in
your area. Look in your phone directory under “Game Stores” , “Specialty
Game Stores”, “Hobby Game Stores”.
The Product Spotlight
is a feature b&w section to make finding
new or featured products easier for the retailer or regular catalog user.
Categorized by game type (Board Game, Miniatures Game, Card Games),
the Spotlight features an image of the new or featured product and the
Company name for ease of finding their particular reference page. (Since
the reference is alphabetized by company name, finding the new product is
easier by the company name than by the product name.)
Our Industry Features
section presents articles that are salient to
professionals in all three tiers of the Greater Games Industry. Retailers,
distributors and publishers will enjoy insights written by industry
professionals on a wide variety of topics. Also included in this section are
company and product profiles, and other important announcements from
industry associations and sources.
Listings
are alphabetical and include their Standard Manufacturer Code.
You should use these codes along with the product number when listing your
products. All prices are the manufacturers’ suggested retail, or approximate
retail value if no retail is suggested. Standard listings (free listings) may
not exceed one page. The manufacturer will be notified if the listing is over
and will be given the opportunity to edit or condense their listing by the
submittal date, or upgrade to an Enhanced listing for $200.00 a year.
Enhanced Listings
appear along with the alphabetical standard
listings but are upgraded to stand out with a company logo and capitalized
company name. Publishers pay a fee to stand out a bit. Enhanced listings
may exceed one page.
