Comment on What the Angry Birds Rio Exclusive on Amazon Android Store Means by Thomas John

I like the play on words: Amazon.com and Amazon River (Rio) which flows through Brazil. It'll be interesting to see how well the Amazon app store interacts with Android. If it's easy to use and install apps, it'll have potential. If not, well...

What the Angry Birds Rio Exclusive on Amazon Android Store Means

Angry Birds developer Rovio is launching its follow-up game, Rio, for Android devices exclusively on the Amazon App Store, giving Amazon’s new market a marquee title as it prepares to open for business. The game, which will roll-out in conjunction with a new 20th Century Fox movie, marks the second time Rovio has launched an Android title first on a third-party market after offering Angry Birds on GetJar last year. Rovio, which just secured $42 million in funding, said it will also offer paid ad-free versions of Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons on Amazon App Store.

Amazon's Android Store Gets New Angry Birds Game As An Exclusive (AMZN, GOOG)

angry birds amazon

Amazon's Android app store, which will supposedly launch this month, is going to get a nice exclusive in the form of a Angry Birds Rio, the latest exclusive game, the companies have announced. The app store will also get ad-free versions of Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons.

This is interesting for several reasons:

  • It means Amazon is serious about its Android app store. The store is potentially a very big deal, as it could be a prelude for some sort of Amazon Android/Kindle tablet, or a big mobile payments push. 



  • Angry Birds maker Rovio has been trashing Android's app store in the press. They say it's harder to charge for things and more confusing. So they're putting their money where their mouth is.

Amazon is probably paying Rovio for the exclusive, but that's a smart move: it's a great loss leader. For the app store to get traction, people have to first install it, and no app generates quite the kind of fanatical devotion that Angry Birds does. If it gets people to install the app store on their phones, they can recoup that in many ways. Amazon is doing its job as a retailer to get great products to consumers.

Angry Birds Is Coming To Facebook In May

Angry Birds costume

Insanely popular mobile game Angry Birds is trying to take over another insanely popular (and lucrative) gaming platform: Facebook. The company had announced the game previously and have now confirmed it will launch in May.

This is interesting because the game dynamics of Angry Birds are completely different from Facebook games. Will players get the same instinctive rush of pleasure "flicking" birds at pigs with a mouse as they do on a touchscreen? Or will the game simply use the characters for a completely different kind of gameplay?

Rovio CEO Mikael Hed will only say that Angry Birds on Facebook will have “completely new aspects to it that just haven’t been experienced in any other platform,” and that the game will leverage Facebook’s "collaborative nature."

Along with its very popular plush toys, this smart strategy of taking a beloved brand to so many platforms is further indicative of why the best potential acquirer for Rovio is Disney →

Mac App Store Hack Lets Users Get Angry Birds For Free (AAPL)

Angry Birds for Mac

There's a loophole in the new Mac apps that can be easily exploited, giving savvy users access to paid apps for free.

It won't work for every paid app, but we tested the process with Angry Birds and it worked.

We first spotted the simple hack through Y Combinator News, which linked to instructions on Pastebin.

The instructions are pretty straightforward and simple, if you really don't want to shell out $5 for Angry Birds. But, you probably should, it's a fair price.

For developers worried about this hack affecting them, we also saw instructions on how to prevent it on Craftymind, also via Y Combinator's news feed.

Angry Birds: "Apple Will Be Number One For A Very Long Time" (AAPL, GOOG)

angry birds

Apple's iOS is still a much better platform for developers, and will remain so for a long time, says Angry Birds development lead Peter Vesterbacka to 9to5Mac.

Why? Two main reasons: Apple got "so many things right" when designing the platform, and it's easier to make money from paid apps.

Vesterbacka also has some not very nice words about Google's Android. It's just very hard to charge for apps on Android. And it's not that open because it's very "Google-centric". Fragmentation is a big problem, too -- not device fragmentation, but ecosystem fragmentation, like carriers adding their own app stores and adding extraneous stuff to the system.
