This is the same case as Kevin Butler, both breached contract and lost their jobs.

I thought his contract just expired?

I guess he vvas a free agent, but Sony did sue him and not use him again.

Oh you, I remember that suit. As I recall, it was settled pretty swiftly. I remember being surprised it was made in the first place: barring a "no-compete" clause in there somewhere I have a hard time seeing Sony having a case, but then again odds are good there was probably something like that in there which arguably applied.

He screwed up, he knows Nintendo is anal as hell. They are the worst of the big three at relations and collaboration. They are stuck in the past. He chose to work for them and signed a contract, so he should've known better.

This happens at any big company...

I'll say it again this time with spaces. Nin-ten-do.....is....the...themost...strin.gent....of...the...big..three.

Off the top of my head, Adam Orth. Josh Robinson. But, relevantly?, Nintendo's the most stringent of the big three.

The problem is that it shows how retarded and outdated Nintendo laws / policies are with their employees (and gamers with no unified account etc.)

In the era of social medias you've got to accept some leniency and flexibility or else those negative posts / articles will continue to appear as they do regularly.

I would argue, with ample supporting evidence, that it's the opposite.
