The fact that Snowden didn't receive the prize obviously doesn't prove anything one way or the other. The problem is that we all (at least the people of Norway) assumed it would never happen becuase of the political consequences for Norway.

Besides, Snowden is at odds with the US while Malala is at odds with the pakistani Taliban. Pakistan has about the same population as Japan, so it's important. Snowden was supposedly a strong candidate, but there are valid reasons not to choose him.
