IGN’s report includes its own, similar response from Fils-Aimé, who said that, during his tenure, contract staff becoming full-time employees was “routine”.
Former Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aimé has distanced himself from recent reports concerning contract workers at the company, and said the issues raised were not representative of his time in charge.
As I read the stories and I read the reports, it struck me – this isn’t the Nintendo that I left.
“At this point I’m three years removed from being president of Nintendo of America,” Fils-Aimé told Washington Post in response.
