OpenFeint comes to the China mobile gaming industry with the help of The9

OpenFeint will test its capabilities with the Chinese mobile gaming industry as it offers its services to the country. This is made possible with OpenFeint’s partnership with the online gaming operator The9. The result is the newly established mobile gaming platform named The9 Game Zone which will offer distribution channels for mobile game developers looking to tap the Chinese gaming market.
The9 Limited is a well known provider of social networking services as well as online games in the country and is more than capable of handling OpenFeint’s agenda.
This is not the first joint move by both companies as just last month, they have offered funding for gaming developers to move their games from iOS to Android in the amount of $100 million.
