I disagree for one reason. Like stated by Iwata himself, if Nintendo will go out hardware gaming business than Nintendo will go out gaming business ( Nintendo will never follow Sega demise ).
The motive is, I belive , that the real Nintendo Difference ( competitive advatage ) in this industry is that it is the only software house with an hardware division. Nintendo gamedesigners could choose the hardware. Iwata is the only CEO of a big company that knows how to develop a videogame ( he was a game designer/programmer at HAL Laboratory ).
