Flappy Bird ebay games were selling like hot cakes when the games developer took the down the controversial games saying it was 'addictive.'
However, reports have emerged saying that the Dong Nguyen would reconsider the whole debacle caused by 'addictive' players to bring it back online with a warning of course.
The warning would carry the tag "take a break" indicating that the gamers should not be compulsively playing the games.
As intended in its original form, Nguyen told Forbes when he took the game down offline from the Apple apps store,."Flappy Bird was designed to play in a few minutes when you are relaxed...But it happened to become an addictive product...I think it has become a problem...."To solve that problem, it's best to take down Flappy Bird."
Dong's Flappy Bird amassed 50 million downloads, fetching $50,000 pounds before it was removed from Android and iPhone stores. Since then, there have been tons of clones mimicking the real game, despite warnings by Google and Android that clones would be considered spam.
No doubt, everyone is watching to see how popular this game can really get.
Since app stores say that clones are considered spam, imitating the Don Nguyen version, hundreds of Flappy Bird clones have surfaced and they mimic everything from the Sesame Street styles to a pink quail that flies over stumps instead of a bird.
Reports say that clones represented a third of new game uploads by the end of February, which also means a lot of people were 'addicted' to the game, as Dong had warned.

Zedge, an app that monitors data from Google's Play Store, there are approximately 864 Flappy Bird clones available on the Play Store since Feb.24. At its peak, there are as many as 70 Flappy Bird clones introduced every 24 hours and 37 were launched the day.
Flappy Bird ebay games installed were selling for as much as $50,000 say reports.
Mr Nguyen, 29, spoke about his decision to re-enter the game online in Rolling Stone magazine.
