I was a little surprised to find a Flappy Bird ?clone? front and center in a Las Vegas “family entertainment” arcade a few months ago.

I've seen a couple different app game's made into cabinets at places like there here in NC too. I think Cut the Rope was one.

If anything, Flappy Bird has transcended "fad" and is as much a part of the cultural "game consciousness" as Super Mario. Who doesn't know Flappy Bird is? And who even remembers all those Flash helicopter games that came before it?
