It is being reported today that the Walt Disney Company on Thursday has officially acquired Application developer, Tapulous in a non-disclosed deal. Tapulous for those who don’t know is a start-up company that develops music based game applications for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. The developer is based in Palo Alto, California and is noticed as one of the more successful developers for Apple’s App Store.

“We have been very successful on the iPhone,” said Bart Decrem, chief executive and co-founder of Tapulous. “We have been thinking, ‘How do we position ourselves to succeed?’ And after several conversations with Disney, we could see that we have a shared vision of the future and the iPhone as a mobile platform.”
