Nintendo has hired a new vice president of sales. His name is Doug Bowser.

With a last name like Bowser, how can this guy go wrong at Nintendo? :wink:

The fact that Bowser is VP at Nintendo is hilarious. I'm just concerned that he's a former EA guy. Definitely don't want that company's ethic to spread any further.

I actually wouldn't worry about it too much- EA is not a big monolith, but rather composed of a bunch of little "silos" that are the different units, studios, and other departments. Someone else who used to work there described it as "a masochistic octopus", a thousand arms, some of which have been very determined to hurt the self.
