Angry Birds Rio has been downloaded 10 million times

Posted by:

The recently released sequel to Rovio’s mega mobile hit Angry Birds has caught fire just like its predecessor.  Angry Birds Rio has passed 10 million downloads after being on the market for just ten days. We’re guessing the sequel’s crazy success has more to do with addictive Angry Birds gameplay than the animated movie tie-in, but it’s doubtful that Fox isn’t loving the extra publicity being granted to its upcoming film Rio.

By the way, after the ridiculous profit margins earned by Angry Birds and the hot start from Angry Birds Rio, this is likely only the beginning for developer Rovio, whose goal may be to revolutionize the foundation of the videogame industry.

Open the bio of Aaron Yorke

Aaron is a big Nintendo fan living in suburban New Jersey. While his favorite game publisher hasn’t been very consistent in putting out legendary offerings lately, he’ll always come back to his Wii (or Wii U) for the next Mario or Zelda title. That’s probably because Mario and Link are the two heroes who first introduced him to videogames.

The first game Aaron fell in love with was Super Mario World, but The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was his first obsession. Despite the outstanding 3D Zelda games to come out starting with 1998’s Ocarina of Time, A Link to the Past will always be Aaron’s favorite game. That’s likely due to the hours spent battling Ganon’s minions that defined his life as a six-year-old.

In more modern times, Aaron will dabble in shooters and RPGs. Despite the fact that he’s now in his mid-20s, he’s still an incurable Pokémon fanatic. Gritty, realistic shooters are great, but Aaron will always prefer the colorful fantasy lands produced by Nintendo games.

Aaron’s greatest triumph in gaming was when he finally defeated Ganon in the original Legend of Zelda. His greatest disappointment is that Yoshi’s Story is on the Wii’s virtual console, but Yoshi’s Island isn’t.

While Aaron is a big sports fan, he’s upset that the current landscape of sports games “forces” fans to buy a new title every year, even when an online update would suffice in most cases. Though he enjoys all Mario Karts, he’s adamant that Mario Kart 64 is overrated and Mario Kart: Double Dash is underrated.
