That's a good point about Kimishima and I understand these plans were in place already.  But I'm more saying that the fact they chose him after opposing the wiiu tells me that he would be the best choice to follow through on a new plan and a new way of doing things and some of the new direction of nx may very well have come from him to begin with.


Doubt his oposition has to do with anything. It's coincidence. He was likely chosen because Iwata's death was unexpected and they needed an interim who was qualified. Kimishima was qualified. Also, just because he didn't agree with the Wii U doesn't mean he doesn't agree with the NX. Iwata stated they were changing a lot within the company well before he passed. No reason to believe he wasn't on board with these changes and wasn't in support of Iwata's new direction.
