Satoru Iwata returns to regular work duties after leave of absence
Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata had to take a leave of absence this summer due to a medical condition. In a medical checkup earlier this year, it was discovered that he had a tumor on his bile duct.
During his absence Iwata had the tumor removed and has now recovered well enough to resume his regular work duties.
In his first press appearance since his leave he commented to reporters – while giving the latest Nintendo financial results – Iwata said that he has lost weight but feels healthier.
