Angry birds only at 12 million paid downloads was in 2010 - with 42 million free downloads. A lot has changed since then.

That game has since cleared 2 billion downloads of all kinds

Even if paid download attach rate dipped to 10% over those other 2 billion ish downloads - it still would have cleared 200 million paid downloads in it's lifetime.

For a successful mobile game to cross over into several hundred million paid downloads isn't out of the question.

I'd argue that Minecraft is a significantly more complex game for casuals to really get into - hence only the 30 million downloads.

No it hasn't, "By January 2014 the game had reached 2 billion downloads, including Angry BirdsAngry Birds SeasonsAngry Birds RioAngry Birds SpaceAngry Birds Star Wars I & II and Angry Birds Go!"

The Angry Birds SERIES has had 2 billion downloads, Angry Birds was actually never a paid game on android, it's always been free to play.

Minecraft is the 2nd best selling mobile game of all time, that's the hard data we have.
