Releasing games on iOS is like playing the lottery, says Shahid Ahmad
More developers make more money on average on Vita than they do on mobile, Sony claims.
SCEE senior business development manager Shahid Ahmad made the bold claim to Polygon (http://www.polygon.com/2013/8/21/4642112/vita-is-ready-for-a-renaissance), and stated releasing on the portable console was a great investment for developers looking to build a business.
He also likened putting a game on the iOS App Store to playing the lottery, given the problems with discoverability in the face of so many competing titles.
"More developers make more money on average on Vita than they do on mobile," said Ahmad.
"When people buy a Vita, they want to purchase games. I tell developers, if you're trying to build a business, then building your game and bringing it to Vita is a great investment.
