First to take to the wires to declare its digital love for the new tablet range which consists of three models in all was Activision, with the firm set to bring an exclusive version of Skylanders Cloud Patrol to the devices.
Physical goods
"Including accessory packs and figures, Skylanders Spyro's Adventure was the #1 best-selling console and hand-held game overall in dollars for the first six months of 2012 in the US and Europe and has quickly become a phenomenon across all gaming platforms," said Activision's consumer marketing VP John Coyne.
"We are thrilled to team up with Amazon to now bring the franchise to millions of Kindle Fire users."
The USP for the new version, priced at 99c, is the ability to purchase physical Skylanders toys from within the game itself an in-app purchase enough to send an order on its way, via Amazon's 1-Click Purchasing system.
German outfit Crytek is also already behind Kindle Fire HD, unveiling Flibble - Flick 'n' Roll in "an exciting new form" for the devices, again at 99c.
Flick hit
"Providing players with new ways to experience our games is always an exciting opportunity," added Crytek's GM of games Nick Button-Brown.
"The unique features of the Kindle Fire HD are ideally suited to showcasing all that Fibble has to offer, and we hope everyone who picks up the system will download the game and discover the joys of having Crytek quality at their fingertips."
UK trade association TIGA has also been quick to give Kindle Fire HD its seal of approval.
"There is considerable growth in the tablet computing sector driven by strong competition between Apple, Google and Amazon - and soon Microsoft - attempting to entice consumers," said CEO DR. Richard Wilson.
"Amazon's emphasis on the actual purchasing of content should be highly beneficial to games developers and digital publishers.
"People who buy these inexpensive devices will be looking for content for them and it is a great opportunity for games developers and digital publishers to ensure they put their products in front of consumers. These are exciting times."
