both iwata and miyamoto needs bigger bonuses.

if miyamoto is american he would have started up his own company ages ago.   


Hah, I'm sure they are both VERY well taken care of. They have a different business mentality than most western business owners though. For example, Yamauchi actually rejected his own retirement bonus (millions of dollars) and gave it back to Nintendo, saying "They need it more than I do." This was around 2002, before the DS was released.



Miyamato insists on a low level worker's salary. He rides a bike to work. He works low level worker hours. He's actually not enormously rich.
