Damn. Lots of people didn't agree with his policies but I thought he had some really interesting ideas. Big loss for Nintendo and the industry on the whole.
5 years from now it will be interesting to look back and see how this has affected the company.
But for now, all I can say is RIP. My condolences to his family and friends. As a fan, he's always been a great personality and face for the company. He will be truly missed and remembered for a long time.
