R.I.P. Satoru Iwata. · 5:06am Jul 14th, 2015
As someone who grew up with Nintendo, this news deeply saddens me. The President of Nintendo, and even before that, a man responsible for fine-tuning and bringing to us many great Nintendo games.
Thank you, Mr. Iwata. For putting fun back into video games, and for my childhood.
Rest in peace and godspeed, good sir.
Yeah. Really see why he decided not to attend E3 this year and instead report on it. It's like he knew he was ill. And yet this man still did what he could, stubbornly so, to refuse infestors and continue to helm Nintendo into the next generation.
Kinda wonder who can take up the helm at this point.
It just really proves that no matter how much money or power you have, in the end we're all just humans. Without life there is no death and without death there is no life. We all have to die one day but unfortunately in this world it seems the good ones go first.

Shigeru Miyamoto is currently Acting President. I don't know if he's going to retain that.
