Tezuka-san is one of the most significant figures in Nintendo history, having served as a designer on the original Super Mario Bros., director on Super Mario Bros. 3, The Legend of Zelda, A Link to the Past, and Super Mario World, and producer on countless iconic titles since.

His final credited work at the time of writing is Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup In Bellabel Park.

Lots of old people retiring and handing stuff to next generation. Would be interesting to see where Nintendo is in next 10 years.
