TuxGames has announced a partnership with the UK-based game retailer Game 23.
The nub of the press release follows:
Tux Games will provide Game 23 with access to its mature e-commerce
solution, allowing Game 23 to expand from a successful brick-and-mortar
company onto the Internet. In addition to the e-commerce solution, Tux Games
will also provide Game 23 with shipping and end-user support services.
In return, Game 23 will immediately begin to sell Linux products in their
physical and online stores on behalf of Tux Games, giving England its first
physical retail outlets for Linux games since 2001. Game 23 will place
advertising for Linux products in their physical stores, and pay a royalty on
all products sold through their new website to Tux Games. In addition, Game
23 pledges to convert every Windows computer in the group to Linux within a 6
month period.
The news from the TG page states that this will increase the availability of
Linux games and help bring them in to the mainstream. Part of the deal also
includes Game 23 paying TG a percentage of all of their online sales, thus
increasing revenue to TG from non-Linux games.
