While the iOS platform is the mobile leader in Japan, with nearly 40% of the market share back in May, Capcom has announced the upcoming closure of 7 iOS games(the Monster Hunter game is already down). Despite the seemingly big number, there are still over 40 iOS titles running.
This is in-line with Capcom’s struggles to rake in more revenue, with net income for in Q1 2014 falling from 828 million Yen to 765 million Yen when compared year-on-year. I am not sure why Capcom hasn’t brought more of its mobile title to the West, I could certainly see potential in a few.
