    So what seems to have happened here is that she was the target of an awful GamerGate campaign, and it was found that she had some (unspecified?) second job, and Nintendo fired her because they didn't like whatever that other job was... or something like that. So yeah, it's seriously questionable on Nintendo's part. Nintendo denies that the GamerGate campaign had anything to do with her being fired of course, and say that it was just because of the second job, but she says that others there had second jobs with no issue, and of course the whole thing only came up because of the harassment campaign that Nintendo didn't seem to do enough to fight.

    So yes, I would say that Nintendo is probably more in the wrong here. Even if she technically was maybe breaking some rule (that apparently is not always enforced), her claims that her gender and Nintendo's corporate conservatism were involved in causing it seem extremely likely.

    Nintendo definitely does not look good here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php...count=2960
