Top-Grossing Android Games: Gameview's Tap Fish Heads Revenue Charts

Every week, Gamasutra rounds up the top-grossing Android gaming applications, as current that day in the Android Market. This week's U.S. revenue charts see Gameview Studios' Tap Fish and Cooper Media's My Country leading today's rankings, as Live Holdem Poker Pro and Madden NFL 12 also report fast sales. These charts allow end users to see who is making the most money in the Android Market that day. It differs significantly from the Top Paid Games chart, which is ranked by sales, and therefore is dominated by lower-priced titles that sell more copies. Data comes courtesy of Google's public sales information. All titles in the Android Market's "Games" category are considered in chart rankings. This week's top-grossing Android titles are: 1. Tap Fish (Free) 2. My Country (Free) 3. Live Holdem Poker Pro (Free) 4. Zynga Poker (Free) 5. Paradise Island (Free) 6. Drag Racing (Free) 7. Restaurant Story (Free) 8. Madden NFL 12 ($6.99) 9. Bakery Story (Free) 10. Fashion Story (Free) Gameview Studios' microtransaction-supported aquarium sim Tap Fish overtakes Cooper Media's longtime chart leader My Country to become this week's highest-grossing Android app. EA's Madden NFL 12 returns to the charts after a brief absence at eighth place, while competing poker titles from Zynga and Dragonplay continue to outperform Cooper Media's Paradise Island and Creative Mobile's Drag Racing.
