In just a few short weeks Nintendo's investors will be voting on whether or not they want to keep Iwata around. With dysmal WiiU sales, major losses, and underperforming 3DS numbers is this Iwata's swan song?

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Nope, it would make too much sense but nope... Although hes not a bad person, I just don't like how he handled the wiiU and the 3ds to a lesser extent

Really? Is that how it works?

In any case, I hope he keeps his job.

Depending on WiiU/MK8 sales...
But he should go either way...

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I'm pretty sure he's a cool guy but he has that old man mentality thats hurting Nintendo. He should leave, but he probably won't.

I doubt they will get rid of him, even though they probably should...

Nintendo fans love him, but he has kept Nintendo in the stone age with bad 3rd party relationships and poor online services.

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

That depends, were did Iwata and Yamauchi come from?

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
