Doug Bowser will be succeeded by Devon Pritchard, a 19-year veteran of the video game industry and longtime member of Nintendo of America’s leadership team.
We saw this guy like 3 times, and the last time I remember seeing him was when he basically said “If you’re too poor to buy Switch2, just buy Switch 1” right before Nintendo increased the price of Switch 1.
I don’t really blame him for how Nintendo has been acting lately, as its mainly the Japanese entity causing all the problems, but the former EA VP of Marketing wasn’t exactly doing them any favors either.

I think the recent moving of US support staff to South America probably comes under him.
But other than that, yeah, don’t think he had any significant (or at least visible) impact on anything.
