Ok, so we're a few days late with this as 'news', but we're not putting it up for its news value, we're putting it up because were a female gamer site, we're all about the women gamers and / or women in the games industry. Needless to say Perrin Kaplan is one of the big fish, given her role as Vice President of Marketing & Corporate Affairs at Nintendo of America.Sadly though, that role will cease as of the end of this year, when Kaplan leaves Nintendo. What's the chance of another woman taking on the role? Worse still, what's the chance of another woman with Kaplan's finesse taking on the role--we'd guess zilch.
Perrin Kaplan always seemed so... honest, so nice and let's face it, supportive of the female gamer community. It's hard to say goodbye, but we wish Perrin all the luck with whatever project she's falls into post Nintendo.
