Nintendo can't keep relying on this guy forever.
He has the right idea by wanting to train the new generation of developers. At least this way we might have one or two new stars rising for Nintendo instead of them going to pot when he does hang up his shoes.

They are not any different from a lot of investors everywhere. Reactionary nutbags. LOL

And isn't it such a comforting thought that such "reactionary nutbags" have, on a large enough scale, financial control over the world's economy simply by influencing and trading in the open market. And like herd animals, if one starts to run away in a panic, others do to, even if they don't know what supposed danger they're running from.
Yup, the system works (See: House of Cards)! /sarcasm

Agreed.  These "herd animals" (I call them "anchovies") have pretty much destroyed the concept of long-term investment in the stock market. This Nintendo incident is merely a microcosmic example of what is going on overall. The anchovies react to a statement and disregard the context, swim away in panic only to swim back the next day. it almost seems like their only purpose is to keep the market volatile. 
Frankly, I don't see why any emerging business owner would want to let their company become publicly traded anymore, unless they were planning to cash in and get out.

Money. IPO's and the stock market made people like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg (sp? Don't care). Multi-billionaires almost overnight. So yeah, it's all about money. Frankly, I liken investing and the stock market to gambling only on a grander scale and with a much larger impact (See: Current Global Meltdown).
