Exciting, without a doubt. Soon? ... not so much.
The Simonsen folks are much in the pre-production stages right now. From what I understand, not a line of code has yet been written. It will be a while before even the first title drops; my guess is it won't be happening in this calendar year.
Now, with that said, there's a lot of positives, too. This is a smart group of guys, they've got their heads screwed on straight, and they don't seem interested in throwing out a lot of promises they can't keep. They know that getting an iOS game to market involves a series of steps, not just wishful thinking. I wish them nothing but the best, but I think it's best to not expect too much from them in the short-term.
