Nintendo’s Perrin Kaplan Takes A Bow
The MTV Multiplayer blog is playing host to a two-part interview with outgoing Nintendo president of marketing Perrin Kaplan. A well-respected figure in the games business, Kaplan’s ‘exit interview’ with Stephen Totilo touches on everything from the missing September surprise to why the US doesn’t have a fan club. “You know we’ve taken a really close look at what they’re doing in Europe and what they’re doing in Japan.
