A Farewell Tribute to Nintendo's Satoru Iwata

IGN's farewell tribute to Nintendo's Satoru Iwata.

The moment you realize they used puppets at this last E3 because they didn't wanted to show Iwata dying of cancer...

"On my business card I'm CEO,
In my head I am a game developer,
But in my heart I am a gamer ... "

[tremorchrist]

He's not dead, he's just in a higher level than we are

[JoeWuhPuh]

It's so fucking sad, this guy had nothing but pure passion for everything Nintendo and would have rather had happy people playing his games and using his technology than fame and money any day. He had what few people in this industry have anymore and that's respect for his products, his employees, his business, and most importantly his customers.

I am not ashamed to say this video made me cry and I am not that much of a Nintendo fan.
Goodbye Iwata, you shall be greatly missed, the world is a darker place without you. Rest in piece my friend.

[HollowN]

There goes some of my childhood. Rest easy old friend.

[ParuDesu]

God bless Satoru Iwata.
Rest In Peace.
See you in Dream Land.

[Ultra_Ken]

the man also learned english to better communicate with his fans... what a legend

[Tennindo]

Even after all these years. It still hurts inside. Nintendo is definitely not the same without him.

[pokemonmasterify]

I'll never forget you Iwata...ya know I never had a chance to thank you... So thank you for giving me a life of excitement with your small creations they had a big impact on my small life and brought me an immense amount of Happiness. See you in heaven Iwata can't wait to play some Legend of Zelda with you and Robin Williams 😭👊🏼🎉

[DeOriginalDavid]

R.I.P Iwata.
Although I haven't played any video games in nearly 2 years now, I still have to pay my respects.

[XxgamerboyxXFORLIFE]

Watched the Nintendo direct today. Nintendo really isn’t the same without you, you did so much for everyone. Thank you again

[TwoPunchMan]

There needs to be a special amiibo released in his honor... we need at least something to always have of him. i want a statue of him on my shelf and when my son asks"who is that dad?" You know what i will tell him? i will say "son, that was once a great man who had a huge positive influance within my life. That man was someone you can appreciate to always see, hear and love. He was the man to know one way or another. He was Satoru Iwata.

[belicsnake]

Here after the reveal of the switch 2, how much we miss you Mr. Iwata, your creativity didn't know limits

[aparice]

When he says "see you next time" my heart breaks, every time.

[TanookiTelevision]

Rest in peace Iwata. us Nintendo fans and gamers alike will never forget you and your legacy will forever live on in our hearts.

[DeathRiddler]

The years aren't the same anymore. Iwata was there at E3 when he announced the Wii. He brought us the yar of luigi.




May Mr. Iwata rest in peace.
