Is Iwata responsible for the drastic change of philosophy at Nintendo?

Well you have to admire how Iwata runs the show at Nintendo, you have to say this guy might be in the top 50 manager list. I mean, how many other CEO have you heard of that turned a company around from total lack of significance to top dog status and earning simply mammoth amounts of cash in the process?

Also, throw out the misconception that there is less first party support as this gen we have a lot more than during the GC era. If the games don't suit your tastes, well that's a whole different problem, just that it's not Nintendo's, it's your problem.
