I'm not sure but wasn't Nintendo TVii his idea? If he can make that sort of decision then he has to have some power. I highly doubt he decides exactly what games comes over. NoA probably has analyst like Patcher who told him not to bring certain games over that won't sell well. He trusted his analyst and that got him into trouble when it turned out America did want those games. Other than Xenoblade, and Last story I don't see any other large mistakes he's made. Everyone did get mad that he "lied" about Smash Bros release date but he was probably told that date from NCL which he simply repeated.
