Namco Networks is teaming up with Firemint to port the highly popular iPhone title Flight Control to other mobile platforms. The game has launched yesterday on Nintendo DSiWare, and is set to hit mobile (Java, Windows Mobile, Brew and Android) in July 2010.
If you haven’t heard of Flight Control, it means you not only don’t have an iPhone or iPod Touch, but really hate reading any iStuff. After Pocket God (which got its comic book), Flight Control is the most popular game in the AppStore, having sold over two million copies. Hence, we are no surprised to see Namco jumping in and trying to get its share of the action.
And that’s about all we got from Namco’s press release. Plus we have Firemint’s CEO Robert Murray’s words who’s obviously excited about the deal. He said: “…It will be a great feat to see our game reach an even broader demographic with the mobile edition.”

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
