Știți jocul ăla tâmpit cu pasărea și țevile din Mario, care a fost retras din App Store și care a creat o mare nebunie în toată lumea, a fost retras de către dezvoltator sau Apple, după multe discuții, se pare că paparazzi i-au agresat familia, a primit mesaje de amenințări, iar de aici a venit decizia de a renunța la un joc tâmpit care a generat 50.000$ pe zi.
