League of Legends for PS4 or XBOX1?

Don't get me wrong, there isn't anything like this as far as I know, but it'd be really cool if our friends at league would make something of the sort. I mean picture it, getting home, looking through your console games, and finding league of legends. It would be awesome. I am just hoping this gets enough momentum to make it to the front desk of some RIOT bigwig and they decide it would be a good idea as well. I mean, if they did that, not only would they be able to reach more people with the game, but also some people who may have next-gen consoles, but crappy computers would be able to experience the game with high graphics, like it's supposed to be experienced. How they would do it I don't know. Whether they'd keep it a free to play game for consoles and do the same ip/rp system, or make the game pay to play and start you off with some skins or whatever I don't know, but anyway they do it would be awesome.

...I don't think you can really do a MOBA like league on a console. The level of control needed for League is just way too finite for a handheld controller.

Smite is getting a release on Xbox one, so it is possible. I know there is a LotR moba on consoles as well as PC. LoL would likely run fine on a PS3 or X360, even.
Its the behind the scenes stuff that will make it not so feasible though. They would have to hire a lot of new people to program it and such. The big thing would be that Riot would have to split a % or fixed amount of revenue of all of their micro-transactions with the console companies. That what I think would be the main reason why you wont see it happen. But what do I know, its not impossible....
