Touch Three

The iPhone is the Match Three device of the future:

Binary Square’s “Spinblox”

Yeah, match three has been done to death but the first two games, especially Trism, do interesting things with the touch interface (the last few are pretty blatant rip-offs and/or ports; I honestly can’t tell.) More importantly, this is what happens when you let small developers — not just companies — openly and freely develop for your platform. Sure, you get the no talent ass clowns ripping off other people’s games but you also get new ideas, like Trism, into the system. Are you paying attention Nintendo? All of a sudden the biggest threat to your mobile dominance isn’t Sony, it’s Apple and its multitude of independent developers.
