Those apps on the Fire are especially made for it. Hardware wise, pretty much every app under the sun works on the Fire. It's only the 10" tablet ones that don't.
The stock Fire ROM has a menu bar double the size of a typical Android setup. That is pretty much what stops most app compatibility for us. And since Gingerbread is not really a tablet optimized OS, developers have to make HD versions specifically tailored to our nice resolution.
