Top-Grossing Android Games: Updated Zynga Poker heads chart rankings

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 Zynga Poker and Tap Fish leading today's rankings, as Drag Racing and Cartoon Wars also report top earnings. 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. Zynga Poker (Free) 2. Tap Fish (Free) 3. Live Holdem Poker Pro (Free) 4. Paradise Island (Free) 5. Smurfs' Village (Free) 6. Cartoon Wars (Free) 7. Defender (Free) 8. Drag Racing (Free) 9. Bakery Story (Free) 10. Tiny Village (Free) A recent content-expanding update puts Zynga Poker at the top of the Android Market app rankings, dropping former chart leader Tap Fish to second place. Gamevil's Cartoon Wars reports a rapid rise in popularity at sixth place this week, where it leads over DroidHen's longtime favorite Defender, Creative Mobile's Drag Racing, and TeamLava's Bakery Story.
