Nintendo Strongly Denies Miyamoto Retirement
Nintendo has reacted to a Wired interview with Shigeru Miyamoto that used the word "retire" and the phrase "stepping down" from game development. Nintendo is not happy.

According to Reuters, "This is absolutely not true," said a spokeswoman for Nintendo. "There seems to have been a misunderstanding. He has said all along that he wants to train the younger generation.

Not clear? Nintendo is: "He has no intention of stepping down. Please do not be concerned."

You can see why Ninty would jump high and fast and shout as, "Shares in Nintendo fell 2 percent to 11,040 yen on Thursday, compared with a 0.7 percent drop in the Nikkei average."
