Topic: Should Satoru Iwata Get Fired And Replaced With Someone New?

Should Satoru Iwata get fired? Since the recent NPD's numbers of PS4 and Xbox One the PS4 sold over 7 million units and Xbox one sold 5 million units. (Correct me If I'm wrong with the Xbox). I see that the Wii U hasn't been doing good AT ALL. The recent Wii U sales are the same as February, hasn't really changed and the recent sales of the PS vita going up and 3DS down. Had me thinking. Should Satoru Iwata get fired? It appears that Nintendo doesn't give 2 Bleep about (either Nintendo itself) Wii U. Because its basically been a year and no changes AT ALL. Still the same business model with Nintendo, No marketing from them absolutely nothing. All I see is Xbox and more PS4. Then Wii U or 3DS. So I was watching a video on Youtube **Look up "Reviewtechusa"** and you'll see what I'm talking about. He makes a **Bleep** good point on why Iwata should get fired.... Here's why. Did you know that Satoru Iwata approval rating has dropped over the past 3 YEARS IN A ROW! (That basically investers wanted him gone) But for some reason he's still the president? Anyways he mentions that if coming June (Correct me if I'm wrong) when ALLLL investers come and meet for there meeting and decided to fire him because of his failure......It will be a good thing for Nintendo sake. Because Nintendo needs a fresh set of new minds someone who isn't afraid to go out and make something new and you know what? I agree with him 1,000,000,000% with him. Because we need some fresh set of minds not always Mario this Mario that always the same thing everytime. So my question to ya'll is Should Iwata get fired and replaced with someone new who isn't afraid to go out there and explore? Yes or No ... and before you even say anything. Go watch the video then come back and tell me yes or no? Thank you for you time :D

Company is losing money!! Quick, fire the CEO (hand-picked by Hiroshi Yamauchi, cut his paycheck in HALF) and hire a new one!

Yeah, as if that ever works.

I read it as "Popularity!". I just figured it was a typo. Also, I couldn't find any info on Google.

Besides, if he wanted to say that popularity was the same (equal to) as profit, he would've written...

Popularity == Profit.

Losing money is not the same as in debt. You have 10 bucks and now you have 8, you lose 2 bucks. You have 10 bucks and now you owe 100 bucks, you're in debt. Nintendo is losing money, no two ways about it. Hope they turn it around soon.

Hand picked by Yamauchi means crap. I mean Steve Ballmer was hand picked by Bill Gates and has had Microsoft's profits high since he was made president and he still stepped down because he semi lost touch. Now Microsoft is giving praised for having a renewed vigor with the new ceo.

I like Iwata but I wouldn't mind someone new at the helm, or better yet give NOA/NOE some form of autonomy.

At the same time, companies are capable of rebounding from losses. It's when they are in debt when the problems really arise
