Когда Сатору Ивата назвал цифру в 1.1 миллиард долларов как цель на следующий финансовый год, инвесторы спросили его уйдёт ли он если у Нинтендо не получится достигнуть заветной суммы. На что Ивата ответил "Я никогда не говорил, что уйду". Похоже мистер Ивата ещё задержится.As first posted in January, Iwata mentioned his "commitment" to a business profit goal of ¥100 billion (US$ 1.1 billion) by the end of the next business year ending in March, 2014. When asked how he would take responsibility if Nintendo did not meet this mark, Iwata replied, "I ask that you understand my use of the word 'commitment.'"
Some in the Japanese media took Iwata's language to mean he would step down should Nintendo fail to reach the magic number.
At a recent investor's meeting, Iwata was asked directly if he would quit if Nintendo doesn't meet his previously stated target. So, will he?
"I don't recall saying I'd resign," Iwata replied. According to Nikkan Sports, the Nintendo honcho went on to say that the game maker should put tremendous effort into achieving its goal and not think about failure. Sounds like Iwata plans on sticking around!
