During the recent Apple press conference, CEO Steve Jobs called the iPhone/iPod Touch platform “the number one portable game player. He pointed to the 1.5 billion game and entertainment downloads, and said the Apple platform has “50 percent + of the marketshare for portable game players in the U.S. and worldwide.
Jobs said that Apple has sold 275 million iPods, with 120 million of those being iOS devices. Compare that to Nintendo, who says it has sold more than 132 million units of its DS since launch, and Sony’s 60 million PSPs sold since launch. “The iPod touch outsells Nintendo and Sony’s portable game players combined,” Jobs boasted. “It’s been amazing.”
He then went on to show off the new iPod Touch, which has the Apple A4 processor and HD video present in the iPhone 4, along with the new Game Center which is expected to launch soon.
