Electronic Arts has shown that today's word of the day is "mobile."  Not only did the new IPhone 5 show off it's flashy new hardware and processing power by featuring EA's Real Racing 3 in all of its chrome-textured glory, but in a release posted earlier today, EA also announced the immediate release of Madden 12 for the Kindle Fire. The game boasts early Playstation 2-era graphical quality but sells for $4.99 on the Amazon marketplace, making it an easy purchase for the Mobile/Digital gaming market.


The press release stated that "EA initially offered 10 games on the Amazon App Store for Android when the Kindle Fire first launched at the end of 2011 and currently has 24 top games available with plans to bring more in 2012."  Add these numbers on to the EA submissions to the ITunes application stores for the IPhone and IPad which feature 60 games and 58 games respectively associated with EA.

It's beginning to look like gamers should either start taking taking advantage of whatever upgrades their mobile phone services offer, or jumping on the "tablet" band-wagon because the release of Windows 8 Mobile, the IPhone 5 and the new Kindle Fire HD, sure make it look like mobile gaming is going to be a major, if not the prime player in this and next year's gaming market.
