Didn´t SONY fired thousands every year in the last 4 years? Didn´t Microsoft fired 7k weeks ago? It happens.
Didn´t Nintendo stood in 7th place among the "most desirable game companys to work for" survey from IGDA in 2014?
Right in front of Naughty Dog, Doublefine and Bethesda?
There was a list of wrong doings during the podcast. He was introduced as a Nintendo employee from the go, so not only he used his credentials to take part on a podcast, but to any unobservant listener, he was totally talking in name of the company. From there, he gave personal opinions about third party games, confidential financial information, called Sakurai a freak and even took a punch at fans that ask for localization.
He literally did everything common sense would advise against. It is actually hard to point what caused his dismissal.
- Was because he talked about confidential information?
- Because he bad talked about his boss?
- Because he bad talked about the fans?
- Because he presented himself as a Nintendo employee in a public situation without authorization?
Finally, not only what he did was a obviously stupid decision, but we also don´t know how he was saw (by his manager) before that. Maybe that was just the last drop. I actually find unbelievable that people are giving so much attention to this. The guy is young, healthy, graduated. He will be fine, life goes on.
