Nintendo’s 2014 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders

 

 

Question:

Before starting, please let me pay my respects to Mr. Yamauchi, former president of Nintendo, who passed away last year. I would like to thank him for providing us with such a variety of fun games. Also, I would like to pray for the speedy recovery of Mr. Iwata.

I see Mr. Iwata is a very conscientious person. He is so sincere that, in my view, he is trying to take on all of the things related to the company’s current situation by himself and I think it might have made him ill. I might be biased, but Mr. Miyamoto seems more resilient and is better at taking everything in his stride. I hope Mr. Iwata will take this advice and use it to make him a better president.

 

Answer:

Takeda:

We truly appreciate your advice. We hope to have a frank discussion with Mr. Iwata about the matter you pointed out.
