This news dovetails into the news coming out about the new mobile OS...apps are going to be huge, and these games are more readily ported to mobile platforms. I'm not sure on that valuation...as $200 million are about 5-6 triple-A titles, but I guess M$ is serious about getting back to at least #2 for mobile platforms...btw...Blackberry is #1 at 41.6%, followed by Apple at 25.6% and M$ at 18%...Google is way down at fifth, with like 5% or so, but with Winmo 7 news hitting the street, I think ALOT of business users are going to stick with BB or jump to this. As for consumers, I think it's going to grab a solid backing as well...we will have to wait to see what Apple does with OS 4 tho. |
What do all those numbers stand for lol? They're the marketshare of what?
|
Platform market share, I assume. The difference is that BB and Apple have their own hardware and software, where as M$ only had a loose confederation of hardware tied to software...it seems as if WinMo 7 will change that, with M$ being more strigent on the standards for WinMo 7 platforms. I don't think we will see a Windows Phone, but I do think we will see some standouts.

Yeah but what platforms? Are we talking mobile phones? Mobile Phone OS's? Mobile Phone gaming?
|
It would have to be phones on the market running those OS to have any comparison, I would think. I think these figures are also for the US alone.
|
Yeah has to be US market because Apple can't have 25% marketshare ww.
