The day-one releases on the Mac App Store mainly target the casual games market. The first-person shooter, action-adventure, and strategy genres are all fairly absent at this stage. Similarly, high-end titles—save for Harry Potter—haven’t arrived yet, but that doesn’t mean we won’t see other marquee games on the store at a later day.

For the Mac App Store’s debut, it makes sense for Apple to stay close to the formula that’s made the iOS version of the App Store such a success. Once gamers start to download games from the Mac App Store, developers could recognize the retail outlet’s potential. That means not only including games in the Mac App Store, but developing offerings with the Mac platform specifically in mind.
