Absolutely. It's necessary for this that those responsible for longer term minded shareholders decisions be strong, intelligent and patient enough to expose short term and narrow minded plans and not be lured by hedge sharks arguments.

This is actually cringe-worthy news. Nintendo moves at their own pace. The reason why so many love Nintendo is because for better or worse, they do things how they want to do them and their integrity should always be respected - even if you disagree. They were the slowest to adopt disc-based media, digital media, online gaming, DLC, and other standard practices. They were also the last to adopt the software price hike, console price hike, paid online services, and other things. So for better or worse, trying to push Nintendo in a certain direction is not going to work for either company. This is not the move, in my opinion.

So Nintendo games on PC confirmed?

Sometimes I think there' a portion of Nintendo's fanbase that's a bit crazy.

Neurotic fan: Give us Virtual console Netflix!
Investment Firm X: We agree, and will help Nintendo build it into one of the most powerful platforms in the world.
Same neurotic fan: What? WHY? Nintendo is DOOMED.

Offering ALSO digital is good, going FULLY digital is a completely different thing. Unless it's digital GOG way, in that case owning a digital copy allows anybody wanting it to make a fully working backup copy. That kind of digital is even better than buying physical for the pros physical has and also other digital services, for the pros digital has, but I don't expect console makers to turn their digital services into GOG-like ones.
