An iPhone developer who survived Nintendo and Apple taking him down

Gear Diary An iPhone developer who survived Nintendo and Apple taking him down photo

Geek.com has just published a very interesting interview with Aaron Ardiri, the founder of Mobile 1 Up.

Back in April Mobile 1 Up was ordered by Nintendo to remove its Game and Watch style games from the iTunes App Store.

Aaron took the apps down, but then using new artwork and some new code, relaunched them one-by-one. Now Mobile 1UP has sent word that its new GW Series App has hit the App Store for $2.99. The GW Series App is exactly as its title suggests: one App with all six games from the GW Series.

The interview digs into the trouble with Nintendo and Apple and the developmental process of the new app.
