The most appropriate music right now

 

[Pokechu]

Please Understand.

too soon i'm sorry my sense of humour ugh lord bless me


ugh it's too soon


I still feel bad for Ninty. They won't be the same. Not even here to see Mario Maker.

 

[LIQUID12A]

I am legitimately crying.

One of gaming's most important icons has passed away so suddenly...RIP Iwata. Your influence in the industry will never be forgotten.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Goodbye Mr. Iwata, you will be missed.
...

 

[BluePikmin11]

I know you guys like to joke, but this isn't the time to do that. This is a big contributor to Nintendo we are talking about.
Pay proper respects.

 

[AreJay25]

Someone over at the Smash subreddit came up with the idea of paying tribute to Iwata at EVO during finals, using name tags. That'd be nice to see.

 

[IceBreakerXY]

I feel like i need to buy something nintendo related......You know i always wanted to buy 3D world.I think i'm gonna do that

 

[Tr1pleDee]

I seriously just beat Mother 3 and now THIS happens too?

MY BODY CAN'T HANDLE ALL THESE EMOTIONS

Rest in peace Iwata... I don't even know what to say.

EDIT:

The most appropriate music right now

NO PLEASE STOP THIS IS THE LAST THING I NEEDED

MY HOUSE IS GOING TO BE FLOODED WITH TEARS

 

[Tree Gelbman]

So sad, he didn't get to pass his torch.

I'm still shell shocked this even happened.

 

[Mikegamer0608]

This is just sad news.... I wonder how Sakurai is doing with this loss.

No one's joking about it...

...at least here, I mean

I was going to mention that I was afraid that there would be people like this but I thought people couldn't be that much of assholes. Guess I was wrong

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

I sincerely hope the next Nintendo game will be dedicated to Iwata.

From Sony Playstation CEO himself

"We will pray for the souls of Iwata 's been a great contribution to the development of the game industry ."

Just to show that other from the industry cares about one another.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Dude...

This doesn't feel real.

What's gonna happen now?

 

[Naoshi]

Please don't post awful **** tactless people say on twitter. It really isn't the time for that kind of crap.

 

[Solfiner]

I legitimately don't know what's gonna happen now. Especially regarding the next Direct and the NX.

Sakuari paying his respects...

任天堂岩田社長が逝去されました。私にとって前の会社からの上司であり、立場を変え、場所を変えても一番の理解者でいてくださいました。努力家で、人徳者で、いつもバランスがよいまとめと提案を素早く導き出していました。考えられる限り最高のリーダーだったと思います。ご冥福をお祈りします。

This is so shocking that MIIVERSE of all places cut the crap to pay respects.

 

[DMurr]

Dude...

This doesn't feel real.

What's gonna happen now?

Realistically, someone or some people have already been running the business in his place for at least a little while now since he's likely been out with his health issues. I can imagine they'll put out a press release soon announcing who his official replacement is. Nintendo is a very large company and that will take some time. I expect to know within the week, though.

Posted the translation before, here it is again in case you didn't see it:

“The president of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata has passed away. He was my former employer, but even when my situation and location changed, he was always the most understanding [of me and my work]. A hard worker and a virtuous man, he always supplied me with quick, fair guidance. I believe that he was the greatest leader I could have imagined. May you rest in peace.”



I'm really sad right now, to say the least.

 

[cmbsfm]

Sure, e3 wasn't that good and the wii u isn't doing well, but he did many great things for nintendo. Let's remember him for his great achievements.

RIP

I don't wanna cry right now. Please don't make me cry. I hate crying

Not shocking really, it is a Nintendo community after all.

Considering it's a usually unpleasant community, I do believe it shocking.

Keep in mind, 9/11 posts, salt and stupidity and crap like that appear all the time. I've scrolled down for 2 minutes and I haven't found ONE post about that.

So yes, I find it shocking myself.

According to the Press Release, Miyamoto and Genyo Takeba are filling in for the moment. If I'm ninja'd, oh well.

There's some big shoes to fill, but I think the company can recover. However, instead of thinking to the future, we should honestly pay some respect, as many have done. He rose from the bottom, and got the top with his hard work, and he did some amazing things that few CEOs would do nowadays (IGN has a good article from 2012), like the pay cuts or being so vocal and open with fans. We don't know if we'll see another CEO with that kind of ability, but I can certainly say, rest in peace, Iwata. You've done a lot for the company, the industry, and gamers as a whole.

 

[Deleted member]

It feels like my eyes want to cry but they can't so it's hurting a ot.
Crying feels good, it lets you take out those feelings you have inside your body and after it you feel lighter, I just wish I could do it now

 

[Souless_shadow]

I have seen some horrible things on twitter that have honestly made me sick to my stomach. I don't understand how some people can be so heartless...

I feel like Nintendo will still stand strong. This time they will do more for Iwata's sake. I'm glad to hear the company is still in good hands

 

[BluePikmin11]

No more Iwata Asks. There's so many things that have been lost.

Someone at Nintendo will go strong with handling the company, especially after a death.

 

[LIQUID12A]

Etika.

 

[Ivander]

... Oh my god.

http://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-president-satoru-iwata-has-passed-away/

I was honestly hoping this was some sort of sick joke, but good god that is very sad to hear, especially after that last mention of him about how he changed his Mii to reflect his weight loss.

 

[Z25]

As much as I love Miyamoto, directs will never be the same or Nintendo... I hope all can be well for them though.

 

[PushDustIn]

Satoru Iwata, president of Nintendo has passed away. He understood Pokemon well, and was an amazing leader. When I saw him the other day he looked healthy...from the bottom of my heart, may you rest in peace." (RT Nintendo's press release)
Masuda's Tweet

(Sorry I can't type right now)

 

[Dravidian]

This is a really simple thought, but I hope they continue to distribute the Iwata mii. I kinda want him to have a halo or wings or sparkles that only he has just to make him stand out even more.
