New York – Highlighting its worldwide leadership position, as well as the creative strength of its internal development studios, Gameloft®, a leading publisher and developer of video games for mobile phones, today announced that its Derek Jeter franchise of mobile games is the best selling baseball game franchise on the market to date. The company is also pleased to announce the newest mobile baseball game offering in the series, Derek Jeter Pro Baseball 2007.
“We are extremely satisfied at the sales success achieved by our line of Derek Jeter mobile games, and believe that the newly implemented changes for Derek Jeter Pro Baseball 2007 will continue that legacy,” said Gonzague de Vallois, vice–president of Publishing, Gameloft. “Additionally, the success of the entire franchise further validates our strategy of ensuring high quality games by internally controlling the development process.”
“I am excited to continue working with Gameloft as their cover athlete for the game,” said all-star shortstop, Derek Jeter. “It has been a great experience to watch the progression of the game over the years and see it get even better with each new version.”

Now, baseball fans can keep the action going between innings, during rain delays, or anywhere they take their phone.
