And that's why I never supported the "Fire Iwata!" movement. Getting rid of one guy won't solve anything when you have that kind of corporate structure. It's harsh perhaps but someone at Nintendo needs to take one for the team and "get rid of" murder all of the senile old farts who are holding the company back.

They simply are never going to be able to overcome their issues because their corporate structure is such that they can't get out of ruts once they fall into one. 

 It would be far better if the issue really was centrally Iwata (though no doubt he is part of the issue, it's just that there are 10 other people at Nintendo also at fault). Then at least by getting rid of him you could see substantial change, but if the corporate culture is rotten to its core ... that isn't fixable. 

In a way though then what's happening to Nintendo now is pretty much 100% predictable. 

If they are so predictable then what do you see Nintendo doing in the next ten years?  If you are only talking about the here and now then that isn't a prediction it falls more along the lines of understanding cause and effect.
