Situation is critical for Nintendo at the moment. Iwata has lied to investors by telling them to expect massive operating profits and Wii U HW / SW sales despite trends indicating the total opposite for the past 2 quarters. He refuesd to change the forecasts. I said after the Q1 results of the current FY back in September, that things will get really heavy and tense, to the point that even disturbs could take place during the FY end results.

Iwata has lost it, almost totally (his credibility I mean and perhaps his sanity as well). He now is desperately trying to climb out of this hole and he's remaining calm, but that is not always good. Remaining calm and inactive when despair comes, is a sign of insanity or points at you giving up. Investors and customers want some ACTION, not the usual pathetic and sad words.

All this talk Iwata has been spewing since the forecasts were changed are really putting him on the edge of the abyss. There's bascially nothing he can do to revert the situation, so if he's still giving false confidence, there could even be some legal actions taking place against the company or even physical violence across the board.

He has to deliver something meaningful for the shortest of terms. No more long term lies. It's now or never. Things are not looking good.
