I have a question ? I think investors pushed Nintendo to make games for mobile when Nintendo said they would never do it but finally did , Can investors push Nintendo to make studio acquisitions too?

Legally... or practically?

Legally, probably not. At least going by US corporate law, investors (by which I assume you mean stockholders) cannot in any way force a corporation to tape any particular action, unless Nintendo has some weird corporate rules. 

Stockholders typically don't have any direct power over the board of directors. If the board of directors and stockholders disagree on a course of action, the board makes the decision.

That being said, the board of directors is elected by the stockholders and can be voted out. So, the stockholders can try to push the company in a particular direction and vote for board members that will do what they want. Whether they would be successful depends on how much stock Nintendo's current officers hold, among other factors.
