If all purchases are kept track of on Nintendo's server, then Apple only gets $3 on purchases through an iOS device. Purchases elsewhere (Nintendo's website, Android app, etc) wouldn't be subject, but the tradeoff is Nintendo has to track those purchases themselves.
- jarin 12y agoGoogle also takes 30% for purchases, so you're talking about $6.
- oddevan 12y agoNo, just $3 for the Android purchases. Since it was made on another platform, Apple doesn't get a cut.
- mathgeek 12y agoSo you say, but that's not how it would work (or how it works) in the real world.
- oddevan 12y agoI'm confused, could you elaborate? I thought the way it worked is: - User buys game on 3DS, links to their Nintendo account, can play on 3DS, iOS, and Android. Nintendo gets $10. - User buys game on iOS, links to their Nintendo account, can play on 3DS, iOS, and Android. Apple gets $3, Nintendo gets $7 - User buys game on Android, links to their Nintendo account, can play on 3DS, iOS, and Android. Google gets $3, Nintendo gets $7
