Tecmo president resigns |
Ó
Tecmo has been in pretty hot waters for the past couple of months now. Out of the pan, into the fire, ya?The whole ordeal with Tomonobu Itagaki leaving Team Ninja wrought some other consequences for Tecmo. And now, Tecmo has announced that their current president, Yoshimi Yasuda, will be resigning.
Some of you may remember Yoshimi Yasuda. When Itagaki slapped a court case on Tecmo, he singled out Yasuda, saying the president had been committing unlawful acts against him - namely, not getting paid the full amount supposedly agreed upon after finishing Dead or Alive 4.
On top of that, there's also been some grumbling from other Tecmo employees, saying that Yasuda has been implementing unfair business practices such as unpaid overtime hours, falsified contracts, etc.
According to Tecmo's board of directors, Yasuda's resignation - which was done for "personal reasons" - has now been accepted.
The new president will be the chairman of the Tecmo board of directors, Yasuharu Kakihara, and will be starting his new post on September 1.
