Angry Birds uses C++ and Lua. Haven't looked at Bubble Bobble.
Not saying you COULDN'T write games in other languages. MineCraft is written in Java, for instance. But my statement still predominantly holds true: Most serious game developers use C++, and many use Lua.
For some definitions of serious, anyway. I guess I mean "ones that have been doing it for any length of time professionally." Or maybe I just mean "almost every one I know." Something like that anyway.
