He was shamed into quitting. Nintendo was old fashioned back then. After the failure of Virtual Boy he was basically sent to a corner. They treated him pretty badly. What they used to do instead of firing you or something. 

I dont think that is confirmed. The guy left to form his own studio. According to Nintendo he was never blamed for the failure of the VB. They could be lying, but there dont seem to be any evidence of that. Unless you have a source for this?

I think Yokoi leaving to form a competitor system to the GameBoy so as to challenge their “power over ‘Blue Ocean’” Project Atlantis is strong evidence. DYKG made a fantastic documentary, so you may want to check out whatever sources he cites.
