astroengine writes: "Not satisfied with being catapulted across iPhone and iPad screens all over the world, this particular Angry Bird (the "plain old projectile" one) decided to use the ultimate catapult to blast himself into space: a Soyuz-FG booster rocket. The Soyuz capsule successfully launched two cosmonauts and a NASA astronaut to the International Space Station last night, and they used the Angry Bird soft toy as a "zero gravity indicator."

"As you can see from the Angry Bird floating above Shkaplerov, the crew has reached orbit," the NASA launch commentator said humorously during the live NASA TV footage of the launch."

(Remember, the DS went on to be the best-selling game console in the history of the hobby.) While this is good spin, it's not cause for celebration, says blogger Peter Smith. Just last week some numbers from Flurry Analytics were adding more credibility to the idea that smartphones are replacing handheld gaming devices. Flurry projects that for 2011 iOS and Android gaming will account for 58% of $3.3 billion spent on mobile gaming. The news gets worse: in Flurry's graphs, Nintendo's share of this revenue dropped from 70% to 36%."
