Top-Grossing iTunes Apps: Skate It, Zombie Infection Enter iPhone Charts

Every week, sister iPhone site FingerGaming rounds up the top-grossing iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad applications, as current that day in the iTunes App Store, and this chart is now available on Gamasutra. This week's U.S. revenue charts see EA's Skate It and Gameloft's Zombie Infection debut in the iPhone charts, while Scrabble leads iPad game sales. These charts allow 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.

Angry Birds ($0.99) 2. Bejeweled 2 ($2.99) 3. Iron Man 2 ($6.99) 4. Plants vs. Zombies ($2.99) 5. Skate It ($6.99) 6. Call of Duty: World at War Zombies ($9.99) 7. Doodle Jump ($0.99) 8.
