I will never understand this "Fire Iwata and Reggie" nonsense. This isn't pro sports. When you stumble, you don't just fire the coach hoping the next guy can "fix things", which is often not the case. They definitely stumbled. But, they also just won the goddamn World Championship (they had the highest sales last gen, and continue to dominate the handhelds as they have since 1989). Nowhere in that do I see "Fire Iwata and Reggie". Nor do I think that replacing either or both of those gentlemen would magically, automatically fix anything. The only way to "fix" things, which has been discussed to death on here so much that it's literally a broken record by now, is to actually get games out on the console. Which they're finally doing.

 

That was my fault, fire is too much of a strong word. I really mean "replace" Iwata and Reggie and get someone up there that have a history and knowledge with games especially Nintendo but also understand what gamers of today want in a console in the year 2013. True, replacing Iwata and Reggie is not going to magically fix everything, no one expects that, but their mistakes are putting Nintendo in a bad image. Why do you think the term "Please understand" is so famous, almost a meme.

 

I still have faith in Nintendo though. :3
