Honestly a lot of Nintendo fans are more out of touch and more in denial about the situation that Iwata is. At least Iwata knows the truth ... there's a problem and people's lifestyles have changed.

It's not that some Nintendo fans are more out of touch, they will just do anything to defend their favorite company's decisions. I love Nintendo, but their decisions are NOT something I'd want from them. It took him longer to realize this, but at the very least he acknowledges his failure to understand the current market, and can only go on from there. He's not getting fired, but if he wants to avoid potential presidency issues, he had better get the company on track to the future, the right way. I may be taking more hope from this quote than meets the eye, but I don't think Iwata has ever admitted to completely misreading the market before (could be wrong).

The current market is really not that different then it ever was.    GTA V sold 30 million. Call of Duty Ghosts has sold 17 million.  Pokemon sold 9.5 million.  Wii Sports,Wii Sports Resort,Mario Kart Wii all still sold over 1 million copies last year and have been on the market for years.  Sony couldnt even get LBP Karting, Playstation All Stars, and God of War Asecention to a million just for a little comparison. 

?? Wrong.

Funny how you mention the lowest selling Sony games vs. the highest selling Nintendo games. What about The Last of Us and Gran Turismo? Both sold a lot more than a million in 2013.

Are they on the market for years and sold over a million last year?
