I think Miyamoto is part of the problem too, he's been given a lot of autonomy to handle EAD entirely as he wants and dictates a lot of Nintendo's overall policies IMO from his position on the board of directors.

The board needs to be shaken up completely. Miyamoto should step back and just work on his own projects and let the rest of Nintendo evolve and adapt into a more modern sensibility. They are being run into the ground by a bunch late 50s/60 year old Japanese men that are far too slow and out of touch.

I agree on Miyamoto. He is a great game-designer, but that isn't becessarily a great manager. Another one should do the overview or he shouldn't get that autonomity in this.

Agreed, with both of you. Nintendo needs some young(er) dude up in there that will demand at least one or two FPS a year that is not a Metroid Prime and not a 3rd party game. Meanwhile, Miyamoto can keep getting his inspiration from his garden or wherever, but some part of the Nintendo game making machine needs to be up to the times and tasked with making games for a current and more mature generation of gamers.
