He was responsible for the Wii, DS (biggest successes Nintendo has ever had) and 3DS comeback. If it wasn't for those things Nintendo would be literally bleeding a lot of cash right now. I don't understand why people like to ignore these things.

Not saying he's doing a good job now, but without him, Nintendo would be in a much much more dire position.

Wow, he was responsible for the 3DS's comeback?!? Damn that must make him such a great CEO!!

Seriously he made the thing cheaper and released Nintendo games on it, you could literally have appointed anyone as Nintendos CEO and they'd have done the same thing, the only smart thing was getting MH4 exclusive on the system and even then pretty much anyone could have figured out that getting one of the biggest games in Japan exclusive to your platform is going to help it over there, so yeah the amount of credit I'd give Iwata for turning around the 3DS is very limited.

Let's take a look at a very simple example: Iwata saw the 3DS was struggling, what did he do? cut his own salary and reduce the price of the 3DS, secure the MH exclusivity, push developers to make games for it. 

What has Kaz done for the Vita? lower the price...and that's about it

Out of the 2, who made the the best business decisions that pushed the hardware forward? Who do you think is the better CEO in the handheld department?
