Peter Biddle on Angry Birds Coming To Windows PCs ...

http://www.netbooknews.com Intel's AppUp has been quietly ramping up the content in their App store but until today they haven't had an App that generated a lot of buzz. Angry Birds was announced on AppUp on the 5th of January and this move brings Angry Birds to PC. AppUp is targeted at Netbooks but for Intel this is the low bearing fruit and to be honest its a pretty taste looking fruit with a huge installed base and an estimation of 40 million in sales this year. Casual gaming is a huge market and stock piling hit titles will have to be in AppUp!'s future if they want to be come a one stop shop for mobile computing apps. If I had to venture a guess I'd say Angry Birds is the thin edge of the wedge and we'll be seeing a significant number or titles pop up over the next few months. Back in September at IDF we heard about a partnership with Konami and since that day there hasn't been a single word about it. My money is on MWC being a big show for AppUp with mobile computing announcements being high on Intel's to do list at the show. Peter Biddle GM of Intel's AppUp! discusses Angry Birds and the gaming distribution on AppUp in an interview at CES.
