I don't see anyone fit to hold that role at the moment.

No offence, but just because you or anyone here can't identify a replacement CEO doesn't mean there isn't someone better suited.

No doubt there's an executive level recruitment firm who'd fucking love to help them find someone else.

We do not need a new thread every month about Iwata resigning. The discussion generally turns into general Nintendo mudslinging because most people don't seem to actually know or care what Iwata does as a CEO. If he does resign, then there can be discussion about why.

Um...the marketing plan for North America for this year was probably already drawn up with budgets signed and approved by the time he came on. Do you know how corporate america works?
