iPhone App Store Sales Data

April 11th 2011

As a few of you know i’m attempting to start a micro games studio @ Forward. As part of that process I have to do lots of research on iPhone sales stats to show that it’s profitable. I thought i’d aggregate some of it here to make it easy for others to find. You can thank me when you’ve made it into the top 100 :)
