During the meeting, it was revealed that the company will maintain its relationship with Nvidia as long as the Nintendo Switch remains on the market, although no reference was made to its successor. One of the details that most caught the attention of the gaming community was the compensation of the company&#8217;s executives and how this contrasts with their Western counterparts.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-17bc7be elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default sc_fly_static\" data-id=\"17bc7be\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-89f9be6 sc_inner_width_none sc_content_align_inherit sc_layouts_column_icons_position_left sc_fly_static\" data-id=\"89f9be6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae652ff sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ae652ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How much money do Nintendo\u2019s key figures earn annually?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4b95123 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default sc_fly_static\" data-id=\"4b95123\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-859c80c sc_inner_width_none sc_content_align_inherit sc_layouts_column_icons_position_left sc_fly_static\" data-id=\"859c80c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c063522 sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c063522\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box;

Executives such as CEOs and presidents enjoy excessively bloated salaries, which are often combined with various performance-related goals that, if achieved, increase these already absurd amounts even further. Below is a list of the highest-paid executives in the video game industry. This information was compiled by the specialized website <a href=\"https:\/\/gamesone.co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GamesOne<\/a>, reflecting total annual compensation, which can come from a combination of salary, bonuses, shares, and benefits. These figures correspond to the fiscal year 2020, are expressed in dollars, and foreign currencies were converted at the average exchange rate for that year.<\/p><ul class=\"text-body list-disc list-inside pl-[24px] py-1.5 [&amp;_ul]:pl-4 [&amp;_ul]:py-0 [&amp;_ol]:pl-4 [&amp;_ol]:py-0\"><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">Hajime Satomi, CEO of SEGA Sammy &#8211; $2,949,168<\/li><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">St\u00e9phane Roussel, CEO of Gameloft &#8211; $3,673,362<\/li><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">Yosuke Matsuda, president of Square Enix &#8211; $4,169,594<\/li><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">J\u00f8rgen Madsen Lindemann, CEO of Modern Times Group &#8211; $4,309,571<\/li><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">David Baszucki, CEO of Roblox &#8211; $6,775,108<\/li><li class=\"[&amp;&gt;p]:inline\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; border: 0px solid #e0e0e1; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59,130,246,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; scrollbar-width: thin; scrollbar-color: #e0e0e1 #f9f9f9;\">George E.

First, Japanese companies tend to pay their directors less than their counterparts from the rest of Asia and from Western companies. Second, the companies spending the most money on their CEOs are usually those laying off the most employees, reflecting the deep inequality present in the industry\u2019s most powerful companies. For instance, Playtika, the Israeli company focused on the mobile game market and the leader of this list, has laid off 1,150 employees since 2022. Activision Blizzard, in second place, has cut more than 1,900 jobs this year alone. Electronic Arts has laid off 200 employees in 2022, 1,200 in 2023, and 670 so far this year, totaling more than 2,000 layoffs in under three years. Unity, in sixth place, has laid off 150 employees in 2022, 1,150 last year, and another 1,800 over the past seven months, resulting in about 3,100 layoffs in under 36 months.
