Will the next CEO of Nintendo make powerful consoles to their fullest? Since Iwata has passed away?

Those hoping for a big shake-up at the top that results in significant changes to Nintendo's M.O. are going to be disappointed. They will appoint someone who believes in Iwata's vision for the industry, and embrace that vision whole-heartedly.

While I mostly agree, I do think its worth mentioning how radically different a direction Nintendo took after Iwata became president, despite being hand picked by the previous president. While I do think that Iwata already hand picked his successor, I'm not so sure that necessarily means that Nintendo isn't in for a serious change. That's definitely not what happened last time.

What I wonder is if this new President will also double as CEO of NOA like Iwata. I hope not. Though I'd probably rather that than Reggie become CEO.
