# Starting an Esports Program Part 4: Platforms In the "trade" we call the computer hardware that video games run on the platform.  There are three: 1. Personal Computers 2. Consoles 3. Mobile While mobile is becoming a thing in esports, in this episode I'm going to focus on PC and Console, talking about the tradeoffs and how to think about them.

When you are investing in creating a healthy esports community, place becomes the next most important item on your list.  If you have great people, a clear purpose, now you need to know where to focus your efforts. You can listen to this episode on Anchor.fm or where ever you get your podcasts.
