I can't be sure. But considering how games like TLOU2 reportedly cost $220 Million dollars to make, sums like that have the ability to impact the direction of the entire company if invested poorly. (See Square Enix, etc)
So in that sense I can imagine it having to cross his desk.

At least that's the sentiment I keep seeing.
But again, I don't know for sure.

I am probably wrong. 

I have to imagine to some extent, that the big publishers have an entire team to greenlight, and seek out projects. 

Moreso it probably isn't in the hands of any one person. Maybe Jim Ryan and Hermen Hulst are two of 10 people that give feedback on projects.  

Yeah, I'm sure he'd be one of several people that have final say on big budget projects.

Its good to know your riding high off a successful Switch gen Rol, Enjoy my pal.

I enjoy Nintendo too much as my fav company to really want to fire back at you so we just leave it at this. To me your take on xbox is weak and mains nothing as you are leaving out so many differences under your comparison its not even funny.

@zero129 

Well it's not really "leaving it at this" when you also add the portion about their opinion being weak.
But without explaining why, you leave them nothing to work with other than unnecesarily asking you to clarify.

It's for this reason the forum rules/guidelines state that people should explain how/why. Not just say that something is bad.
