    In response to Wired's report, and the 2% stock price drop that Nintendo might have suffered as a result, a Nintendo spokesperson tells Reuters, "This is absolutely not true. There seems to have been a misunderstanding. He has said all along that he wants to train the younger generation. He has no intention of stepping down. Please do not be concerned."
