Well for those that wanted to know about the apple store here's some info i can give you. I personally would have loved to know this from someone else when i was programming my game. All the sales are from USA, they don't count the rest of the world.
*To be in the top 80 games you need to sell about 700 copies per day
*Being in the last page of the strategy genre takes about 60-70 copies a day.
*if you sell less than 15 copies a day you will not be in any listing at all
*Until you hit at least the 2nd page of the strategy genre sales will be flaky and unstable. If you manage to reach the first 2 pages the sales will stabilize and you can count on getting the same amount of money from one day to the other.
*Webpage reviews barely make any difference at all on sales. It seems the only way to make any money is to be hand picked by apple and put in one of those listings.
*For a 1 dollar game, 60% of the income will come from USA and 40% from the rest of the world.
*For a 4 dollar game 90% to 95% of the sales will come from USA.
