Abstract
This Week In Consumer Electronics (abbreviated TWICE) is a trade newspaper for the consumer electronics industry. The magazine covers new developments in the electronics business, including trade show coverage and blurbs about new products. Historically, TWICE also covered electronic toys and their overlap with the early video game industry.
TWICE has run continuously since 1986, although its focus shifted away from video games as the game industry began to specialize. The magazine was originally published weekly, though it later shifted to biweekly and eventualy monthly publication.
Some editions of the official Consumer Electronics Show daily newspaper were also published as special issues of TWICE; they have been shelved together.
