there has not been much accountability in Nintendo s executive offices - when co revenues shrink significantly every year for 8+/- years with little meaningful change in how they do business and little change in corp personnel then that co has become too comfortable
adding Reggie and Shibata as exec officers may mean Nintendo may start prioritizing its major markets accordingly instead of "Japan 1st" and everyone else a distant 2nd

If these changes are not going to be just "window dressing" to appease investors, then this is the beginning of significant change at Nintendo. It could even make it easier for them to be bought out eventually- but too early to tell- weather the coming changes will make things better for existing and past Nintendo fans or drastically worse for them is anyone's guess at this point

Nintendo has already operated with very short term mentality the last 5 or so years so it may be difficult to operate with an even shorter term mentality come change or not
