    Why John Madden Football Has Been Such A Success Kevin Dious STS 145: The History of Computer Game Design: Technology, Culture, Business Professor: Henry Lowood March 18, 2002 Kevin Dious STS 145: The History of Computer Game Design: Technology, Culture, Business Professor: Henry Lowood March 18, 2002 Why John Madden Football Has Been Such A Success Case History Athletic competition has been a part of the human culture since its inception. One of the most popular and successful sports of today’s culture is American football. This sport has grown into a worldwide phenomenon, and like the video game industry, has become a multi-billion entity. It was only a matter of time until game developers teamed up with the National Football League (NFL) to bring magnificent sport to video game players across the globe. There are few, if any, game genres that are as popular as sports games. With the ever-increasing popularity of the NFL, it was inevitable that football games would become one of the most lucrative of the sports game genre. With all of the companies making football games for consoles and PCs during the late 1980s and 1990s, there is one particular company that clearly stood and remains above the rest, Electronic Arts. EA Sports, the sports division of Electronic Arts, revolutionized not only the football sports games but also the entire sports game genre itself. Before Electronic Arts entered the sports realm, league licenses, celebrity endorsements, and re-release of games were all unheard of. EA was one of the first companies to release the same game annually, creating several series of games that are thriving even today.

    Chinese makers roll out wave of Apple watch lookalikes 12 March 2015, byJoe Mcdonald taking steps to reduce the problem.

That has led to the rise of an industry known as "shanzhai," or "mountain forts"—hundreds of small, anonymous manufacturers that quickly copy the An e-commerce website with a vendor selling the "Apple design or features of popular foreign mobile phones Smart Watch Bluetooth Bracelet" starting from 288 yuan or other products at a fraction of the price.

  • JD: Envisioning the Future of Retail
    N9-618-051 REV: MAY 18, 2018 FENG ZHU SHIRLEY SUN JD: Envisioning the Future of Retail After celebrating JD’s 13th birthday on June 18, 2017, Richard Liu, the company’s founder, chairman and CEO, observed the construction site outside his office window. JD was the second largest e- commerce company in China by gross merchandise volume (GMV). (See Exhibit 1 on JD’s growth over the years.) The new office building expanded JD’s headquarters in Beijing, China, and symbolized the company’s recent success. June 18 not only marked JD’s founding, it also represented a shopping festival established by the company—and had quickly become one of China’s largest online shopping festivals in addition to the massive Singles’ Day sale on November 11, originally a festival for youths to celebrate their singlehood, as represented by the date’s four single digits “11.11.” From June 1-18, JD offered special promotions followed by other online retailers. In 2017, JD amassed a $17.6 billion in total transaction volume during that period, an increase of over 50% compared to the same period in the previous year.1 As JD challenged Alibaba more directly, Liu had to decide how to generate continued growth. To him, one important competitiveness of JD lay in the company’s self-operated nationwide logistics network and developments in proprietary technologies.2 With control over fulfillment and delivery, JD was able to offer same-or-next-day delivery as a standard service for Chinese consumers, a strategy that had won customers’ hearts over the years.3 This fulfillment capability put JD in the leadership position, even when compared to its US counterparts such as Amazon.
