are leaving.

It is said on game informer that "Three key executives will be leaving Nintendo of America, including Senior Director of Public Relations Beth Llewelyn; Vice President, Marking and Corporate Affairs Perrin Kaplan; and Senior Vice President, Marketing and Corporate Communications George Harrison." They still don't know exactly when they will leave though.

It's kinda sad. I'm sure they were an integral part of the Wii and DS's sucess.  At least we still have Reggie.

i am not concerned.

 Nintendo has always done well. Nintendo has proven themselves time after time. I'd say nintendo really wiped the floor with the other game systems this last year.

I would not be surprised to see some guys from VH1. Reggie worked there before at Nintendo.

I'm kind of sad that Perrin is leaving, she always had a positive attitude and something worth saying.

George Harrison on the other hand, didn't know what he was talking about half of the time.  What comes to mind is when he said in an interview (near the launch of Wii even) that Twilight Princess would have downloadable content.  Obviously, that wasn't even the case... and shouldn't a representative of Nintendo just know that stuff?

Agreed. Although I think that Harrison can be really weird sometimes, he is still a good guy.

Then again, this story could be a false rumor, so lets see what happens
