I don't want to sound racist, but I do agree. Iwata's ramblings were overly long. I loved his "who's your daddy" joke about Reggie, but keep it simple. I realize that you run the company, and that's great. You should keep an eye on everything ang plan it all. But you should get someone who has a vocab of 500 words or more without a thick accent to present. Same goes for Sony's.

Microsoft's presenters defintely get the hype going, but I hate Allard with a passion. Why did he dress up like an angel of death from Dogma?
