The minutes from the shareholders meetings typically have this question. To which Iwata normally replies, "are there any gaming companies with sustained revenue growth in mobile?" then everyone shuts up

hmm, well then he should go cause mobile games can make Nintendo lots of money.

Maybe everyone should go mobile then...?

Well it wouldn't hurt for Nintendo to try it. MS makes Windows Phone games and Sony makes playstation Mobile games. 

Google Translate:

"Poor performance of Nintendo continues to worsen. It's Nintendo that dominated the world market in home-use game machine, world by storm temporarily but, by, for example, is pushed to the rise of social games that you enjoy to download the game from the Internet smartphone (smartphone), prospect of breaking away from deficit accounting it is not Tata. The Nintendo company, a movement to try to resign the president Satoru Iwata to stick to home-use game machines are becoming increasingly active, and that is showing signs of just like family feud. According to the year ended March 31, consolidated financial statements 2014 Nintendo announced on May 7, operating income showing a profit of core business is sinking into an operating loss of 3 consecutive quarter (deficit of 36.4 billion yen in the previous fiscal year) deficit of 46.4 billion yen 's. In addition, net sales decreased 10% in the previous year to 571.7 billion yen ...Q"

I always trust google translate for these kind of things, not some stranger on the internet. Seems like a good translation overall.

This. But if Yama Jr. is against mobile, kick Iwata's scrafty ass to the curb!

So Iwata is the one keeping Nintendo, from falling into the fake dream of huge mobile profits, as Square Enix and Capcom are falling, good to know, and with that known, he hopefully stays in the helm of the company till those guys are gone. Though he could always do what Yamauchi did in his early days, fire those managers, to proof his autorithy, that not even the upper management is safe, if they oppose him.

Them wanting to bring Katsuhito Yamauchi, seems to be interesting, I wonder if it is because he is easily manipulated, so they can use him as their puppet, but either way, Katsuhito should stay away from Nintendo, since if he was the project/planning director for Mario Party 9 and Island Tour, he better stay away from Nintendo and their main software teams.

Hmm.. I do wonder how Yamauchi's son would handle Nintendo!

If youre a Nintendo fan, you want him to stay. I can see why people who want to play their games, but dont want to buy their hardware wants him gone though...
