Key Nintendo Programmer Defects to Microsoft
by Chris Faylor, May 07, 2008 10:56am PDTLong-time Nintendo programmer Colin Reed has left Nintendo for a position at Microsoft, Shacknews has learned.
During his 11 years at Nintendo, Reed served in many key programming roles, including technical lead on NST's Metroid Prime: Hunters (NDS) and main system programmer on Nintendo EAD's Pikmin (GCN).
Reed will be joining the team at Microsoft responsible for the racing-sim series Forza Motorsport, which is headed up by internal studio Turn 10. Prior to his departure, he was working with NST on an undisclosed project.
His resignation marks the latest high-profile departure from Nintendo. In late April, Metroid Prime series developer and wholly-owned Nintendo subsidiary Retro Studios lost three pivotal staff members.

What fucking Microsoft needs to do is recognize that Forza is one of their best brands and start really competing hardware and simulation wise with Gran Turismo. They got a lot of playability right with the livery, online tournaments and tuning options, but the game suffers from severe "this is boring Single Player" goals which I think Gran Turismo does FAR better with their world and championship presentations.
