(compiled/ananas) according to overseas media reports, the U.S. mobile analytics company Flurry recently released a report, and shows that in the United States, the growing number of Apple iOS and Google Android smartphone platform class games are constantly occupying the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP and other Palm machine sales. Flurry, after synthesizing the industry's published data and some of its own forecasts, found that in 2010, iOS and Android platform games accounted for 34% of the total sales of portable games in the US region. In 2009, these games accounted for only 19% of the sales share. Meanwhile, sales of Nintendo DS games fell to 57% in 2010 from 70% in 2009. Similarly, the sales share of Sony PSP games fell from 11% in 2009 to 9% in 2010. The smartphone platform game was started in 2009 with iphone games, which accounted for only 5% of the U.S. annual game sales of $10.4 billion trillion (or about 69.9 billion RMB). In 2010, sales of handheld and smartphone games increased, and iOS and Android game sales accounted for 8% of the total U.S. software sales of 10 billion U.S. dollars (or about 67.9 billion RMB). Intelligent Mobile electronic sales platforms like Apple's App Store and Android Harsh are constantly disrupting the traditional software and game marketing of Nintendo and Sony. Buying a DS or PSP game at a retail store takes about 40 dollars (a contract 261RMB), while most smartphone games require less than 5 dollars (contract 32RMB), and they offer a lot of fun and free games. While the current format is not optimistic for Nintendo and Sony, Nintendo says the developers of smartphone games are simply not really taking into account the quality of the game itself. Satoru Iwata, executive director of Nintendo, said, "those smartphone game companies just blindly publish as much software as possible, and that's how they make money." The game we produced is much better than they are, in the quality of the game they are absolutely not equal, and we will continue to adhere to our products. ”
