App Genius partners with Snooki's company to release a handful of mobile apps and social games

If you've ever found yourself wondering why you can't have more Snooki all the time, then you are in for a treat. Snooki has announced a partnership with Apps Genius Corp to release up to eight social games and mobile applications for the exceptionally orange reality star.

Fans of the MTV breakout hit Jersey Shore and Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi may even be able to download one of the applications by late November, App Genius previewed in a statement, with at least three more to follow within 12 months.

"These games and applications are my new favorite accessories, and I love them to death," said the MTV mainstay Polizzi, in a statement. "Having worked on these from the beginning, I know Jersey Shore viewers and my other fans will love them. I can't wait to release the first one that we have been working on with Apps Genius."

These upcoming Snooki applications and games will available on Android, Apple's iOS, Facebook, and Google+ platforms. 

App Genius is the maker of several free Facebook games and mobile applications including My Mad Millions, where users have access to $300 million to buy luxury items, gamble, pay the stock exchange and otherwise spend.

The way to win in My Mad Millions is wittle your fortune to nothing in as much style as possible. As of mid-October, My Mad Millions boasted around 6,000 monthly average users, according to App Data. The company also has a paid mobile application called Bed Bug Alert with updated geo-tagged data about bed bug outbreaks.

This Snooki series of games and applications will be the first to truly partner with the reality star but some have been spreading the Snooki love for more than a year using the MTV's Jersey Shore: Spread Snooki application, released by MTV Networks last summer. The $0.99 mobile application allowed purchasers to edit in pictures of Snooki with the photos they take or have saved on their phone. This application has garnered three stars and 77 ratings since its launch.

"Snooki's enthusiasm for this new venture represents the perfect start for our recently announced Celebrity Entertainment Division," Adam Kotkin, CEO of Apps Genius, said in a statement. "Our celebrity apps and games are a partnership in design and creativity with the celebrities we work with, and my team and I look forward to working first with Snooki in the design of her games and applications. The Snooki apps and games we're releasing will not only appeal to millions of viewers of Jersey Shore and her other fans, but will also demonstrate the power and appeal of our Celebrity Entertainment Division to a wide range of other leading celebrities interested in following in Snooki's footsteps."

Now what the upcoming applications and games will entail is anyone's guess. Since the signature 'Snooki Bump' may easily get confused with the business contact application 'Bump,' my best guess on the first release is a check-in application that only allows you to post when you are at a club, the gym, a tanning salon or the local laundromat. I might call it Spotted with Snooki. But, frankly, no one asked me.
