I don t believe Iwata can get it done - he is putting Nintendo in a big hole that is going to require large investments a fair amount of risk and willingness/ ability to operate much faster than Nintendo and Iwata have in the past- I just don t see him being able to make needed. Transitions ( whatever they end up being) -
I think it sucks because I think Iwata is correct on his views re going mobile and/ or 3 rd party only - Hopefully whoever s the next CEO of Nintendo has the same basic philosophy re mobile and hardware - But you never know what the next guy will do and Iwata s poor execution gives investors who want to make those type of changes more leverage
Regardless, if he is indeed under pressure then that can only be good for the Wii u- But neither Iwata or Nintendo still do not seem to have a sense of urgency re the Wii u- so it makes me think he may have the right shareholders and board members in his camp unequivocally
