Why does Apple get all the vidya? Is Apple popular in Japan

Pretty much.

It's either Apple or Sony for phones (since they can't into actual good android phones), and they don't buy consoles anymore because they're too big for their apartments, so smartphones are now getting the lion's share of the vidya.

But why do companies like Capcom pretty much ignore Android?

>>322389784

Sony makes great Android phones though.

Apple users are more likely to spend more money. Plus impulse buys.
It's also simpler to design games for apple phones for obvious reasons.

Because Android users are more used to free software, whereas the Apple App Store tends to command higher prices.

Not compared to OnePlus or LG.

No it's because it's hard to convince android user to pay in advance.

This is my first Apple device and I'm amazed how locked down this shit is.

Google is a fucking saint compared to these assholes.

Apple has consultant hardware parity across all their devices. They have a "universal" middleware called Metal so everything works on all devices the same thus maximizing profits with no optimization time.

Could go more in the detail but this should give you a rough understanding.

Because smartphones are a massive audience, many many times bigger than any video game platform, and because iOS users are an audience that has always been willing to pay for content, which means developers focus almost exclusively on it and ignore other platforms as second-rate (e.g. Android) or don't bother at all.
