Flappy Bird, a mobile game that some say takes inspiration from Mario for its designs, is not at all an issue for Nintendo, a spokesperson has said.
The company’s Yasuhiro Minagawa told the Wall Street Journal that Nintendo did not issue any complaints about the title.
Minagawa stated:
“While we usually do not comment on the rumours and speculations, we have already denied the speculation.”
One could argue that Flappy Bird became a sensation in just a matter of days. However, the free game’s success led creator Dong Nguyen to take it down from the App Store and Google Play. Nguyen has said that there haven’t been any legal issues, and Nintendo’s comment reaffirms that the company did not play a role in its removal.
