Iwata should stop taking all responsability for what happens. Yes, he is the president of Nintendo but the decisions are taken by all the members of the board, not only by him.

With the disaster that was the launch of the 3DS he was on the verge of getting fired by the angry investors, I don't think he will be able to get saved again. And if that happens, things could go a lot worse for Nintendo.

If, somehow, they still find themselves unable to turn things around around this time next year, I do wonder if he´ll resign.

Maybe, but the doubt is still there.

If Iwata leaves the Co., who will be the new president? And who will make him president? If it's the board then we can hope for a transition without too many changes, but if it's the investors who choose the new president I'm not so sure that will be the case.

I mean, the investors have asked many times to put their games on mobile platforms to increase revenue and so Iwata have been able to avoid that. I wonder if a new president would be able to keep avoiding that or instead will pursue that goal. And if that's the case I'm afraid that Nintendo won't be in the hardware busines for much longer.
