And on iOS alone. Android market is huge too. Here are the complete financial results of the Finnish company that makes it, Supercell:

So 892M$ sales and profit of 464M$. with just 2 mobile games.
As a comparison, all of Activision made just 174M$ profit last year (well, 9 months, but they are not expecting proft for the last quarter).
But even that pales in comparison to a single mobile game Puzzle & Dragons that made 700M$ profit on around 1.4 BILIION sales last year.
