Apparently it's the 124th anniversary for Nintendo today, which I honestly had no idea was the case until just a minute ago, lol.
Fusajiro Yamauchi was the founder of Nintendo, who's daughter married Sekiryo Kaneda, the next president of Nintendo. His son-in-law, Hiroshi Yamauchi (who unfortunately passed away Friday) then became president. So the job was passed from family members, although Satoru Iwata has absolutely no relation to them I believe.
Anyway...happy birthday Nintendo. XD
