Takashi Tezuka

There’s one more notable appointment stemming from the financial report Nintendo published today. Going forward, Takashi Tezuka will be an Executive Officer on Nintendo’s board of directors.

Tezuka joined Nintendo in 1984 and has been key in many classics. He was the director of early hits like Super Mario World and Zelda: A Link to the Past, and has continued to be involved with development through today.

Despite being an Executive Officer, Tezuka will still be a Senior Officer in Nintendo’s Entertainment Planning & Development division.
