George Harrison confirms his Nintendo retirement
It wasn't like we didn't see this one coming, but George Harrison has finally made his retirement from Nintendo official: He'll be leaving his post as Senior VP of Marketing in December, instead of making the move to San Francisco or New York with the rest of the marketing team that's getting kicked out of Redmond. Our guess is he just couldn't stand idly by while Nintendo snuck a fitness regimen into the unsuspecting homes of US citizens. Stand strong, George.

I thought George Harrison was a Beatle, not a nintendo exec?
Maybe he'll start playing the guitar?
you mean the Wiitar.
Maybe now he will have time to put his album catalog on iTunes with John, Paul and Ringo. Wait .... isn't he dead? Or was working for Nintendo death?
Do you guys happen to need a Photoshop guy over there?
just askin...
I'm sayin'. Although, the crudeness does add to the comedy...
Guess there was too much Fear and Loathing in Redmond.
That's not sun tan lotion on his nose....
Oh I get it... he's "Gone Troppo".
My dream of a Wii made of Norwegian Wood will never be realized.
Wish I could be photoshopped into retirement...
An interesting choice to leave the biz rather than move operations. I suppose all the redwood trees and fresh air has gotten to him, and he decided it was best to stay put rather than move his family to a completely different state. At least he's a man that puts family before career. Refreshing.
Yeah, definately agree. It shows that there are some family men out there in this country called USA.
That pic looks uber photoshoped. I mean check out those glasses!
I can't tell if his glasses are crooked, his nose is crooked or the part in his hair is crooked but the effect is dizzying.
No need to comment on his teeth. Those are definitely crooked.
