This app (when installed on an iPhone 5s) was going for $100,000 on ebay just a week ago.
 
"Flappy Bird crazy time comes after the game’s developer, Dong Nguyen, a 29-year-old from Vietnam, announced that he had decided to pull the game from the iTunes App Store and Google Play. Nguyen was reportedly raking in some $50,000 per day from advertising revenue from the free mobile game, which reached the top of the App Store charts and was downloaded millions of times.
While Nguyen considers the game “a success,” he explained on Twitter that the game “ruins his simple life,” which appears to be the reason he took the game down."

Interestingly, my brother in law who had downloaded this for free, is looking to get somewhere around $10k for it on ebay......so if you have this on your iPhone.........

Never heard of "Flappy" Birds.  (Only the Angry ones.)
 
I'm guessing this is just a ploy and that he'll "cave in" and put it back up to even more sales success.
 
If I lived in Vietnam and was making $50k per day, you can bet that I wouldn't be worried about success and I sure as heck wouldn't be living in Vietnam!

Craig, you could/should easily write an app (being in da Biz an all) like this and see where it takes you.......Angry Pigs?? (with sequels....Becan in the Mist, Becan Zombies on the Prowl, Becan - The last empire etc...) It would market well with Angry Birds (considering they're attacking pigs).
Just have to make it so frustrating to win, that'll just keep em reelin in (the years to come).

I just checked that meself......I thought by now, some Juan might have already complained to the authorities in hopes of getting it thrown in the sewer CH.
 
What would be unfunny is if you posted another shamless plug in an ultra-more-supercalifragilistic-creative way and revive the fred.
