For several weeks we've known that Nintendo of America recently came to an internal decision to move portions of its marketing and public relations departments from Seattle to San Francisco. (Nintendo Power is going to New York, meanwhile, according to insiders.) Long-time employees with the company were told that they needed to relocate or find a new job, and as it turns out several key Nintendo figures decided to stay in Seattle, including Perrin Kaplan and George Harrison. NOA president Reggie Fils-Aime today commented on the relocation process and the company departures. His words below: Virtually all of the employees affected by the relocation plan have now responded with their decisions, and approximately four of every ten have agreed to make the move to either New York or the Bay Area, in keeping with our original expectations. A transition task force of key executives has been formed to ensure the smoothest process possible, and continuous information and resources will be available to all employees.
