Nintendo's Fascinating Troubles

Japanese corporate leaders suffer from a unique case of "we can do whatever we want and not get fired".

In fact, it takes a scandal the likes of teh Olympus scandal to oust any Japanese corporate leadership. The mainstream Japanese media refused to report on the scandal, while it was going on, because Olympus was so tied to several media organizations. 

So, when Nintendo's President said he wouldn't be stepping down over the dismal sales of the Wii U, I was not surprised. To be fair,  the company did shake up their board of directors,  but it took facing complete failure to do that.
