Great news for the mobile games industry today as Orange UK confirmed a shift in consumer downloads as they noticed the majority was taking place on the Orange World mobile games deck as The Guardian reports.
With over 15 million consumers, Orange UK can be considered as one of the more important sales channels in Europe. In the first quarter of this year, Orange UK sold 750K games, boiling down to 250K games a month which is more then the music, ringtone and wallpaper sales on their decks.
Top 10 selling mobile games during this period where;
01. Sonic The Hedgehog | Glu
02. Worms | THQ
03. Space Invaders | Taito
04. Tiger Woods
Did they say whether this was because ringtone/wallpaper purchases are declining or because games sales are rising?
