Every week, sister iPhone site FingerGaming rounds up the top-grossing iPhone and iPod Touch applications, as current that day in the iTunes App Store, and this chart is now available on Gamasutra. This week's U.S. iPhone revenue charts see Gamevil's action-RPG Zenonia 2 heading App Store sales in its first week of release, as Monopoly edges out Call of Duty for second place. This chart allows end users to see who is making the most money on the App Store that day. It differs significantly from the Top 10 Games chart, which is ranked by sales, and therefore is dominated by lower-priced titles that sell more copies. Data comes courtesy of Apple's public sales information. All titles in the App Store's "Games" category are considered in chart rankings. This week's top-grossing U.S. App Store titles are: 1. Zenonia 2 ($4.99) 2. Monopoly ($4.99) 3. Call of Duty: World at War Zombies ($9.99) 4. Zombie Farm (Free) 5. Where's Waldo? ($0.99) 6. Bejeweled 2 ($2.99) 7. Street Fighter IV ($9.99) 8. Doodle Jump ($0.99) 9. Words With Friends ($2.99) 10. Diner Dash ($0.99) Gamevil's action-RPG sequel Zenonia 2 leads App Store sales following a well-received weekend debut. EA's iPhone version of Monopoly trails close behind at second place. Last week's chart winner Street Fighter IV falls to seventh place in today's results. Ludia's adaptation of Where's Waldo? also sees a drop in popularity, landing at fifth place after previously taking second. Call of Duty: World at War Zombies recovers after a sixth-place finish last week, and surpasses Playforge's microtransaction-supported Zombie Farm in today's chart results. Fellow zombie title Plants vs. Zombies drops out of chart range this week, making way for Lima Sky's Doodle Jump, Newtoy's multiplayer word game Words with Friends, and a discounted Diner Dash.
