It is 31st December, 2011 – last day of 2011. I thought it was about time I did a full count of how many game units we have sold/freebied. I was surprised it was a little over a quarter of a million – sounds like a lot of people! I had around 100,000 in my head so that was a nice surprise.
Alas a lot of the bigger numbers were free downloads/free promotions, but even so – I was really pleased with the numbers.
I thought I’d share them – and as such they are included below broken down into the different formats – iOS, PSP & WiiWare. I didn’t include PC as the numbers really aren’t worth including (probably about 20 units total!).
iOS
Bashi Blocks
iPhone 19,945 iPad 5,523
Family Games Fun
iPhone 18,203 iPad 24,591
TOTAL: 68,262
WiiWare
Figures Removed at the Request of Nintendo
PSP Minis/PSN
Bashi Blocks
83,595
Arcade Darts
16,069
Arcade Air Hockey & Bowling
24,818
Arcade Pool & Snooker
3,410
Arcade Bundle
5,998
Family Games
8,829
Pool Hall Pro
3,012
Vertigo
960
TOTAL: 146,691
GRAND TOTAL: over 250,000
So there we have it – Worldwide there are over 250,000 copies of our games kicking around on various platforms.
I’d like to think that a good percentage of that number enjoyed playing them, and I want to say a big thank you from all of us at ICON to everyone who has played any of our games. Hope to see you again in 2012

The rest of the Minis were all paid units, some were included in promotions - but mostly these were all standard store purchases. All the WiiWare units were paid.
iOS mostly free - again we're trying to build up a user base there in advance of any future stuff we do. I think so far we've made about $500 on iOS.
EDIT: To be on the safe-side grand total ammended.
Echoing John's comment, I am also surprised by the (implied) sales from Wiiware...honestly didn't think so many were left to log onto that platform after a largely desolate year and plenty of other suitors.
