Well I am glad. Iwata stated the day Nintendo stops making hardware is the day they stop making software. Miyamoto also commented last generation that if Nintendo stopped making hardware none of his creations would appear on any other consoles. Together Miyamoto and Iwata ensure that Nintendo will never go third party, which is the best path anyways.
All these moronic investor's are likely non-gamers. Back in the 90's I remember reading reports that many of Nintendo's investors were bonified gamers. But when Wii and DS made so much money tons of these shit heads bought stocks. Fact is these investors don't care about games they care about profit margins and profit alone. Nintendo has been a very profitable company, but these investors see alittle loss of profit and they want to jump ship.
I would like to see Nintendo exec's and founders buy up a controlling 51% share of the company and ensure that investors like these moron's never get the chance to ruin Nintendo. Listen Nintendo has over 10-billion dollars its not going anywhere, your profits are down alittle but you know Nintendo is good for it. Nintendo will return to profitability on its own terms soon enough.
Heck I wouldn't be suprised if Nintendo expanded its market abit. But to sell out and put their IP's on iOS devices or Android would be the biggest mistake they could possibly make!
