Spike Of Interest Seen In Mobile Game Downloads

The popularity of smartphones in the U.S. is leading to a spike of interest in downloading mobile games.

Downloads of mobile games increased 17 percent in November 2008 from a year ago, comScore said on Friday. During the month, 8.5 million people, or 3.8 percent of mobile phone subscribers, received at least one game.

Of those downloads, 34 percent went to a smartphone, such as Apple’s iPhone or Research In Motion’s Blackberry Curve, said Senior Analyst Mark Donovan. Last year, not one smartphone was among the top ten mobile devices for downloading games.

The iPhone and the Curve have replaced the RAZR and low-end flip phones as the most popular gaming devices, comScore said.

  1. Mobile games downloads? I always download them?

  2. Good Morning! How is it going today? It’s just that i dig your blog so much, and that i think you could start earning alot of loot from it. I run a few thriving websites that I started bringing in some cash from lately. They use a thing called a content blocker widget, it makes guests fill out a quiz inorder to get access to special content or to download programs or tools that they need. And every time they do a easy survey i earn about a dollar. Really awsome eh? Been making much more from this than adsense!! Feel free to contact me, or you can check it out through my refferal link. http://www.tinyurl.com/yevwfst, Regards, Henrik K. Hannsen
