Publishing For the People: Tringo Goes to GBA
Clickable Culture is reporting that Tringo, a portmanteau of a game that plays like a cross between Tetris and Bingo will be making its way to GBA screens soon. Tringo was originally created by players within Second Life, the graphical MUD/game/thing run by Linden Labs.
We've seen Popcap games make the jump to GBA before, but this is probably the first time that user-created content for a MMO has been licensed for its own game. I think that's pretty neat.

Tringo was developed by one Second Life resident named Kermitt Quick. The GBA license is probably the most significant SL/RL game industry development, but it's not the first. The first Tringo licensor was Donnerwood Media, who apparently had mobile phone and web rights to the game.
