Eiji Aonuma, known for his long-running work on Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series, is to be awarded a knighthood in France.
The Nintendo exec has been named a 'Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters' by the French Minister of Culture. As reported by NewsinFrance, a date for the presentation of this distinction has not yet been set.
However, when the time does come for this presentation, Aonuma will join fellow Nintendo creator Shigeru Miyamoto as one of the few in the video game industry to be bestowed with the honour.
