Flappy Bird — #1 for Both iPhone and Android — Has Been Removed from All App Stores by Its Creator

UPDATE: As of Sunday afternoon, Flappy Bird has indeed been removed from the Apple App Store and Android’s Google Play Store. Those who downloaded Flappy Bird before Sunday can still play the game, but no newcomers will be able to download Flappy Bird, unless creator Dong Nguyen has a change of heart and uploads it anew into the app stores of Apple and Google.  * Flappy Bird, the phenom game of the last few weeks, may be making its creator rich, but it is not making him happy. Dong Nguyen from Vietnam announced in a tweet on Saturday: I am sorry ‘Flappy Bird’ users, 22 hours from now, I will take ‘Flappy Bird’ down.
