Following Krysta Yang’s resignation, Nintendo Minute’s other co-creator Kit Ellis has also announced his departure from the company. Yep an end of an era.
This announcement comes rather quick after the conclusion of Nintendo Minute, which aired for 400 episodes between 2013 and 2015. Kit Ellis has been with the organization for 13 years and has been the Senior Public Relations Manager since 2009.
Kit’s goodbye message was shared on Twitter:
13 years is a long time and I’m excited to experience the surprises and fun with fresh eyes alongside all of you. I’m also grateful for the chance to reflect on this time and think about what I’d like to do next. Thanks to everyone for your support – it’s meant everything to me. pic.twitter.com/kGg5YyNT3q
