U.S Says eSports Players Are Now Professional Athletes

Riot Games eSports manager Nick Allen:

This was a lengthy process; we had a lot of people fighting for this and it wasn’t something that happened overnight.

Michael Pachter Questions Why Anyone would buy a Wii U

Nintendo’s in trouble right now. Nintendo, I think, waited two years too long to launch a competitive, high definition console…I think by the time they did launch a console which stacks up really well, the other two guys [Sony and Microsoft] passed them by, and I think they’re in a world of trouble right now.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say Nintendo is in trouble, but they have definitely waited too long. Between the poor marketing of the Wii U, and the lack of real third party support, its h
