Video game consoles come and go, but the Nintendo Switch is forever. At least, that’s how it sometimes seems. Six years after its launch, the beloved handheld hybrid is still going strong and on track to sell 15 million devices in 2023. But for Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser, the reason behind the Switch’s lasting power is simple: It’s the games.

Activsion Blizzard has landed the game industry’s most embarrassing hat trick—Nintendo’s Doug Bowser has apparently joined Xbox and PlayStation bosses Phil Spencer and Jim Ryan in sending private memos to employees criticizing Activision Blizzard’s alleged culture of sexual harassment and discrimination.

[…]

That means leadership for all three major platform holders that Activision Blizzard does business with have now criticized its handling of the situation in the week since an explosive Wall Street Journal report alleged that CEO Bobby Kotick was an active participant in said culture.

An email sent by Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser sent on Friday, November 19 addresses the Activision-Blizzard report. The email went out to all levels of Nintendo of America, including internal development houses like Retro Studios and the newly-acquired Next-Level Games.

“Along with all of you, I’ve been following the latest developments with Activision Blizzard and the ongoing reports of sexual harassment and toxicity at the company,” Bowser begins. “I find these accounts distressing and disturbing. They run counter to my values as well as Nintendo’s beliefs, values and policies.”

Bowser goes on in the letter to explain that Nintendo is committed to having an open and inclusive workplace where all are welcome. He remarks the company holds itself to this standard and expects the same from the industry and their partners.
