It's only for one year. So it's a temporary position. I'm much more down with that.

Sakurai for president, 2016.


Are you sure that Mr. Sakurai himself would want that roll?

No...

Don't ruin this for me.



I'm surprised a thread hasn't been made on the company restructuring. It's probably bigger news than the new president. I mean, EAD is no more, for heaven's sake.



Sorry, can't stop myself from posting this...

Official info or opinion?

If its not ofical info I can easy see Tatsumi Kimishima as new CEO at least for 3-4 years.

 

Edit

Although this may sound unusual, this is actually standard for Nintendo. Iwata was always appointed for 1-year terms, and was re-elected at the annual board meeting.

What?! For reals? I know they had started a new division (business something), but did they close down EAD? Replaced it with what?



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Is that all they did? EAD sounded a lot better than EPD...
