Flurry: Android And iOS Games Beat Nintendo And Sony In Revenue
Oh, how the mighty have fallen. According to new research from mobile analytics firm Flurry, iOS and Android games now generate more revenue than all of Nintendo and Sony's portable games combined.Nintendo and Sony have been duking it out for control of the portable market for years, with the two of them generating $2.2 and $1.6 billion in game revenue in 2009 and 2010 respectively. This year though, Flurry projects their combined revenue at a relatively small $1.4 billion while iOS and Android will pull in a projected $1.9 billion.If Flurry's projections hold true, then mobile gaming will have outshone their more traditional counterparts for the first time. Flurry attributes the spike in iOS and Android game purchases to their low price tag and to the high adoption rate of new smartphones and tablets.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/E5jND9vG5wA/
