With the announcement of the upcoming Mac App Store just a few hours old, Australian game studio Firemint has already announced that they will be delivering their award-winning game Flight Control to the Mac. They released the above screenshot which is said to be an actual screenshot of Flight Control HD running on a Mac.
Flight Control is an original iOS game that was released onto the App Store in March 2009. The game was a hit, selling millions of copies.

Still, it marks the first announcement of what we expect to be many in the lead-up to the launch of the Mac App Store.
