Is this some kind of sick joke? This is so sudden. Didn't even know he was sick. He looked fine to me at that E3 direct.

RIP if true

Wow. I'm almost tearing up here.

He had his detractors over the years, but he accomplished a ton. He'll be greatly missed. End of an era.

RIP.

WTF, this is not a joke is it. Genuinely shocked and I almost never get shocked over anything, don't know what to say, RIP Iwata-san and my condolences to his family.

It's funny, because video games is such a vast and huge landscape of people and personalities, yet when someone passes away I still feel the loss as someone who was near and dear regardless of them being a CEO or just a fan.

Hurts hard, glad I had the privilege of meeting him once in my life. RIP

Not unexpected, but I totally thought he was on the upswing.

Sad to hear. Hope his family, friends, and colleagues are doing OK.

RIP

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I'm legit balling here.

It's as if a family member passed away.

Goodness this news is tough to swallow.

RIP.
