Eh, part of the issue is that Iwata while making some mistakes did help keep the company afloat with the DS and Wii. The 3DS has stabilized and the Wii U is still fairly new and only been in Japan for a month.
Heck, truthfully, in Japan Nintendo is still doing good thanks to the DS/3DS, it is the other parts of the Western world where a lot of money is heading that they are having trouble retaining power. 3rd parties, specifically Japanese ones are also starting to switch toward Western markets and this is the real reason why Nintendo felt pressured to release the Wii U. Time will tell for the Wii U but at this point only its failure would cause a Nintendo head to leave the company. Miyamoto is on the way out mainly because he is old but even that may take a year or two and not before they have him release some highly promoted game they can market as his last.
