Only worth tracking if we can track the number of digital downloads and/or the revenue generated. Both of these are difficult for VGChartz to do and are done already by developers/publishers (so there's no need for another third party to get involved).

Also, if we track iPhone, we should also start tracking Android/Play Store downloads.

No merit? It's the number one selling gaming device on the planet lol. It's the elephant in the room that none of us want to talk about. Sooner or later, we're all going to have to recognize it.

Iphones are not really bought for gaming. THat is why theyre not in the gaming industry, but the phone industry. Just because they have games on them, doesnt mean that theyre a gaming device and why people buy them

Well 3DS is selling pretty well, and Vita is in Japan, so It's a little too soon to say handhelds are dead.

we track consoles.

...makes more sense to track amazon's new thing than iphones.

We should track PCs before even thinking of tracking phones or tablets

I completely forgot that the iPhone was primarily a quality handheld gaming device with such classics such as Flappy Bird and Candy Crush..

I put smart phones as essentially form of computers, so not sure how one can justify the iPhone and not the iPad or iMac, much less the competitors products in those fields.

No, its a phone. It would be like tracking laptop and desktop sales.

Something not doomed on this site is just not how we roll.. this site only lives because of our need to talk about doom..
