Video: Inode surpassed 100 million downloads on Nokia Store
The folks from Inode are joining the prestigious 100 Million club.
Jamie Enriquez, Founder and CEO at Inode Entertainment, talks about the success this Mexican developer has found for its mobile games, apps, and content through Nokia Store.
Inode started adding content to Nokia Store three years ago, because of the reach it offers. It was an immediate success and the revenue soon meant Jamie and his brother could hire an additional developer and graphic designer.
“The journey has been a lot of fun”, says Jamie. “From having one million downloads last year to 100 million this year, that’s a reflection on how much Nokia cares about their local developers”.
At the beginning of the year Jamie set a goal of 3 million downloads per day and Inode is close to achieving that goal today.
“We are really happy to keep partnering with Nokia”, says Jamie, “developing for Lumia and Asha, to deliver great games and content for our users”.

so has nokia kicked them to the curb too?
Obviously not as they are not developing for Symbian only:
“We are really happy to keep partnering with Nokia”, says Jamie, “developing for Lumia and Asha, to deliver great games and content for our users”.
ahh i thought there may have been a mention of other platforms but took a shot anyway
never missing an opportunity for a snide remark, eh?
If you think about it, Rims CEO said Nokia doesn’t have the users? Someone should send him these numbers.
Yeah he was proud of 80m BB users and saying Nokia doesn’t have that. He’s right. There are >1.3 Billion Nokia users. (obv there’s some context and back story but this comment looks better without it
)
since symbian sales r declining faster than the speed of light,it’s inevitable to see that 2012 is effectively symbian’s last year.
my question is what will happen to nokia store ?! i mean most of nokia store downloads r symbian apps and nokia store core business is symbian(currently).it’s almost certain that after 2013 symbian user base will come to zero so how will this affect nokia store?! and also what will happen to symbian content after 2016?!
i know that no one knows anything for sure but i hope that some people give me rational assumptions.
I don’t think that by 2013 the userbase will be zero.
Nokia offered all Symbian developers an excuse letter saying: ‘We really appreciate your efforts in developing great software for Symbian but looking at the current circumstances, we have make a strategic change and jump ship. We would like to ask you to join us in this journey together. Oh, and while we are at it; here is a free Lumia to test it on.”
‘Kicking’ sounds a bit out of proportion isn’t it?
So they’ve got a choice to strengthen MS’s marketplace…
Or go with the steaming pile of dung that is S40/30* to prop-up Nokia Store.
(or do both of course)
Tell me why Nokia Store is even viable “longer-term” any more?
*and it will be longer-term, it’s NOT the answer to inroads other vendors will make at that price-point in a few yrs.
Or is the longer-term agenda that it’ll also fail, so that WP can be pushed down to that price-point too?
Once critical mass and tech advancements dictate that it’s feasible etc.
You really, really, gotta wonder, esp. in light of everything that’s happened.
I can’t wait to buy a 311 just to try it out. Asha seems to be selling well. It must be the masses know it’s not dung for the money. If you want dung, go android. Crash,crash,crash.
Sorry but I must pick on my brothers Sammie 2, it seems to be a crash a holic.
The overall package is solid, but it just won’t compete longer-term.
In a few yrs Nokia will have abandoned it, & if they haven’t already tried to push WP into that territory, they’ll have abandoned the low-end or tried to compete with Android (which will fail).
Assuming they’re not already bankrupt or bought out before all of that of course, which I hope they’re not.
