"There have been many health and financial issues in my family, and I want to spend more time being with people who are important in my life. There are many people right now who need my support.

Furthermore, I‘ve been considering creating a small indie game as a tiny hobby during my free time. Being creative (instead of constantly critical and cynical) will be a positive change in my life"

I will miss her insights. :(

Isn't she a Nintendo PR person?

Aw too bad, hope everything works out well for her.



I've heard her name before but I don't know who she is to be sad about her leaving  :P



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

Well, she mentioned that was not feeling well for some time now. Wish her the best.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

She is one of the only true journalist in the games business IMO- It is too bad she is leaving but i can understand her reasons
