Game Trading Technologies Releases GameBook Mobile App for Google's Android Mobile Operating Systems

HUNT VALLEY, Md., Dec. 14, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Game Trading Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: GMTD, "GTTI"), a leading provider of comprehensive trading solutions for video game retailers, publishers, rental companies and consumers, has released 'GameBook Mobile' app for Google's Android mobile operating systems. The GameBook Mobile app is available today as a free download from the Android Market on Android-powered devices.

GameBook Mobile, which has been long enjoyed by users on the Apple iOS platform, provides detailed information regarding the latest and greatest video games. Its easy-to-use interface allows users to build, value, manage and trade their personal video game software collections. The application also provides current market values for DVD/Blu-ray movies, as well as Apple iPods and other video game hardware.  

Utilizing GTTI's proprietary market pricing technology, GameBook Mobile is believed to be the only application that can track more than 75,000 video games, consoles, iPods and thousands of Blu-ray DVD movie titles in real-time. GameBook Mobile's expansive database offers users the opportunity to maximize the trade-in value of these items in exchange for retailer gift cards, PayPal funds, or cash.

GameBook Mobile is packed with powerful features and tools, including:  

• "Track Your Collection" allows you to search for and track the current market value for virtually any video-related entertainment item you own, whether it is a game title, game system, movie or an iPod.

• "Trade Trend" key allows you to monitor trading price direction, helping you to receive the highest trade prices on video game software and hardware as listed on GTTI's Gamers Factory website (www.gamersfactory.com).

• "Trade-O-Meter" helps you decide between your games and systems that are "keepers" vs. the items you have conquered and earmarked for trade.

• "Store Locator" finds the closest retail location to trade in your video games, iPods or DVD movies for cash or gift cards.

• "Want List" lets you search for, list, and email the names of the video games, iPods and DVD/Blu-ray movies you want the most.

• "Send" gives you the ability to email your collection details and games you want to trade to wherever you want, so you can trade your games for cash, PayPal funds or gift cards.

• "UPC Search" scans the video game and DVD/Blu-ray movie barcode using the camera on your phone, which makes adding and valuing your games and movies a snap.

"Now with the addition of GameBook Mobile for Android devices, more mobile users can conveniently manage, value and trade in their old video-related entertainment items for new merchandise, a gift card or cash to purchase other items they crave," commented Todd Hays, CEO of Game Trading Technologies. "We expect this expanded universe of users to significantly increase the activity of our proprietary pricing system, and drive more users to our retail and online partners who participate in our trade-in and distribution programs."
