I think it should now be clear that Sony can only go 3rd party for mobile. /s

For some reason it's not allowing me to post them as an image.

Sony was the highest grossing publisher in August 2017, when Fate/Grand Order overtook Monster Strike to become the number 1 app. The rise of Madoka Magica just solidifies their position at the top spot.

It's not surprising at all if you have been following the mobile charts for a while. Sony, Gung Ho, Bandai Namco, Square Enix and Konami have been in the top 10 for 2 years, if not longer. Sega Sammy and Nintendo have broken into the top 10 on a few occasions. At the moment, the only major Japanese publishers of console games struggling to find success in the mobile space are Capcom and Koei Tecmo.
