Do we have any market data about games maybe someone who holds Mac Games section or developed mac game can overlap popularity/conversion info with us? Is conversion rate higher and piracy lower or maybe it is very "geek" limited market? Any info is appreciated.
We have 16 PC games with 9 of them ported to the Mac (10 if you count Flip Words 2 Mac which should be released this month). I would say that Mac sales are 5-15% of PC sales for a given distribution channel.. but conversion is usually manifold (at least). I undergo no idea about piracy on Mac titles.. but it does seem that most of the Mac DRMs that distribution sites use are not all that great. Hope this info helps,-Scorpio
Mac sales contribute to 50-60% of our game sales. Conversion rates for Dirk Dashing on Mac are about 10x better than the Windows version. I'm really excited about releasing make Cents Deluxe on Mac in the next week or so and seeing what that does to our sales.
