It's not a joke. He really is gone at the age of 55.

This is a sad day for not just Nintendo fans, but all gamers. God bless you Iwata-Sama.

From what I read, this guy was one of the brains behind Earthbound.

Nintendo will pull through. It always does. Rest in peace, Satoru.

Yeah, my sister came to me an hour ago and told me. Checked it out, it's true. Guy is gone, sad as it is.

Farewell Iwata-sama. My thanks for all the good you've done not just for Nintendo, but gaming in general. May you rest well.
