Bowser said it has been "an honour" to work with the company and thanked fans for their "passion and support" of Nintendo. Bowser concluded by saying that "you can count on me to remain a Nintendo fan." "Today, I announced my plan to retire from Nintendo, effective December 31, 2025. Nintendo has been an integral part of my life for 44 years, starting with Donkey Kong Arcade as a kid in college. It has been an honor to contribute to this incredible company and bring our beloved characters and worlds to fans through our video games, theme parks, and movie experiences. I extend my best wishes to Devon Pritchard as she leads Nintendo of America forward, and I thank all of you for your passion and support of Nintendo and you can count on me to remain a Nintendo fan!"
