    Lespedeza got a reaction from Bensemus in 'E-Sports should be in the Olympics' Says WoW creator   
    Esports on sports channels? Sure, full support on that. As mentioned above, poker is there, so why not some pixel action. It raises awareness of e-sports and helps putting it into its rightful place between rugby and synchronized swimming.
    I don't think they should be part of the olympics though. The olympics are a physical event, and they should stay exactly that.
    Seperate e-olympics would be fun. All kinds of games that need different skills mashed together in a race for gold medals.

    Lespedeza got a reaction from Colonel_Gerdauf in Its official, new console is Nintendo.   
    Eh.. no thanks. What I like about the Wii(U) is that it doesn't try to be a PC without a mouse (looking at you, xbone!). I don't like the "console exclusive"-concept because most of the games would work totally fine on PC. And while games like Mario Kart or SSB certainly would as well, since they support GCN/classic controllers, some of the games need the nunchuk or the dual screen-thingie of the WiiU, which separates them from the PC. If the games are console-exclusive because it has something that wouldn't work as great on a PC, I'm fine with buying a console. And yes, I am aware of adapting the controls to PC being a possibility.
    Regarding the new console: If it means that the Wii U is going to be cheaper, yes please!

    I'd go with "family oriented". And again, if I want mature stuff, I fire up steam and see what it throws at me. There are so unbelievably many games tailored to adult gamers, why should Nintendo hop on the bandwagon and blend in with this mushy, grey blob of pixelviolence? Not that I don't enjoy a good shootout with some friends, but I prefer the "friendly competitions" Nintendo offers. It's a nice and welcome contrast.

    Favourite console games?
    Virtual On: Cyber Troopers (Saturn) and Jet Set Radio (Dreamcast). If handhelds do count, I would add God Eater Burst (PSP), Monster Hunter Portable 3rd (PSP) and Metroid Fusion (GBA) as well. I also had a lot of fun with Monster Hunter Tri on my Wii.
