U of U alum Doug Bowser to take over Nintendo’s U.S. division

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk famously suggested that there is a high likelihood that humanity is living within a computer simulation.

On Thursday, Nintendo offered some evidence to bolster that theory as it announced that Reggie Fils-Aime will step down in April as president of the company's U.S. division. Taking his place?

Bowser serves as senior vice president of sales and marketing at Nintendo of America, and will take over April 15, according to the company.

"We will continue to build on [Fils-Aime's] work to evolve and expand our brand, furthering Nintendo's global mission of creating smiles," Bowser said.
