“I realized this is really going to be the next cycle of my career and this is what I want to focus on. I loved playing video games as a child.”
Her game definitely hit the big time but some celebs are not far off. Ellen’s ‘Heads Up!’ has been downloaded 25 million times and locked in $25.9 million. YouTube video game commentator, PewdiePie, also stacked in a lot of cash with his game Legend of the Brofist, earning $1 million a month.
So kids, it seems video games are where the money’s at.
