Nintendo UK boss Simon Kemp, who replaced David Yarnton back in 2012, has announced that he’s leaving the company to pursue other opportunities. His temporary replacement Stephan Bole, who is senior managing director for European subsidiaries, will take over until a new boss is found for the company. Nintendo UK has had quite a few departures in recent months and years. Let’s hope a successor is found soon.
“Simon has performed the role of general manager of Nintendo UK since November 2012. Nintendo would like to take this opportunity to thank Simon for his services to Nintendo UK and to wish him every success in his choice of new career.”
Thanks, minibitminibit
Nintendo is close to dead in the UK. Change of leadership definitely required.
Hopefully not Jeremy Corbyn or David Cameron, those guys are already out of touch with the public as it is.
||Temporary setback…||
I know who you are toaster.
||I never made an effort to hide myself young one…||
What’s the question marks for?
||New Supreme Leader of Nintendo, requires a new rank…||
That ain’t going to stop Nintendo from having a shitty E3.
||We don’t care about E3…||
I can say the same for Nintendo
||Your limited understanding is pathetic…||
Nah, it’s just that I don’t care :)
||Your charades are transparent…||
I’ll gladly take over, Nintendo.
Haha you are going to have competition I’m afraid!
I’ll have you know I came 21st place in the Presidency for my College!
I only lost because of my addiction to promising to announce something but then saying I won’t.
Haha got me beat!
||Abysmal…||
NO… NOO…. SHIBATA HOW COUL
oh.
Simon Kemp?
Ah, nevermind then
Nintendo is die-ing slowly… Nintendo must fix this with the Nintendo NX and listen to FANS
Nintendo would rather die then listen to fans
Which fans?

Well I think it’s time for me to apply and try to rescue Nintendo. Man!!!! so bothersome :-P
Best case scenario, this guy was holding Nintendo UK back in some way & this departure will only help them improve. Worst case scenario, Nintendo hasn’t learned a god damn thing from Wii U & NX is just more of the same bullshit so this guy got out before the shit hit the fan! *hopes for the best case scenario*
And Reggie to follow? Nintendo needs a big shake up to get back on their game (pun intended).
