If Microsoft can live without Bill Gates, I'm sure Nintendo can manage somehow.

I would compare it more to Steve Jobs leaving Apple which does not bode well for Nintendo's future after he leaves.

Hopefully he has been working long and hard grooming a replacement, I would hate to see Big N fail (again).

 When was this fail that you speak of?
