Rockefellers. Skull and Bones. Microsoft. Al Qaeda. A Cabal of Bankers. The melting point of steel. What do these things have in common? Wake up sheeple, the landfill wasn't even REAL!
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
It's because Iwata's impact and legacy go beyond his company...it goes into all of gaming as a whole. Playstation, Xbox, every corner of our industry was touched by his hand. Everyone who plays games has been affected by him, no matter their particular hardware of choice.
Guys, I'm on my way to Nintendo of America HQ. I will leave this somewhere. I just want to pay tribute to a man who brought us so much joy.
Dealing with the loss of someone you cared about is something I'm still not used to, so don't know what else to do.

I don't know if Nintendo World Store in NYC is planning anything, but I'll stop by just to soak it all in today.

CNN is saying he died of cancer? But original story in OP says Bile Duct problem?
Or are they the same situation?
Sorry if this is bad timing to want to get information right.
It's both. Biliary cancerCNN is saying he died of cancer? But original story in OP says Bile Duct problem?

They announced on their various social media plugs that in remembrance of iwata they would remain silent for the day.Has NoA released a statement yet?

In remembrance of Mr. Satoru Iwata, Nintendo will not be posting on our social media channels today.
That is awesome. Was hoping to actually be up that way already, but haven't made it up to Seattle yet. But I'm glad someone up there is going to rep GAF with an offering. <3
I don't think I can ever come out of this denial stage I'm in. All these feels with the Twitter piece and all... and pictures... god damn...
Same. It was a bile duct growth, which would be that nefarious cancer.
Yeah, Bile is used to digest meats and other forms of proteins. If that part of you body isn't working properly, you won't digest food's nutrients and it will go right through you. Hence why he lost a lot of weight.It's both. Biliary cancer
I haven't played the original Balloon Fight outside of the Smash masterpieces demo, but I really liked the NintendoLand version. Gonna get it on VC soon.
I made a post earlier in the thread but the cancer he had has a survival rate of 30% at best. Fuck cancer.Yeah, Bile is used to digest meats and other forms of proteins.

Would anyone be so kind to put the ribbon on my avatar? Thanks
Can someone ribbon my avatar, or point me to a template, please?
Not sure if this has been posted already, but this got me, like many other things today... R.I.P Iwata
Looking good and proper in his suit as always.
That's a wonderful picture. God, Mario with the 1-Up there REALLY gets me. No extra lives in reality, no matter how much we'd like it.Not sure if this has been posted already, but this got me, like many other things today... R.I.P Iwata
Yeah, this is one of the worst types of cancer. Any kind of cancer in the digestive track is dangerous because it literally robs the body of its nutrients and people can deteriorate very quickly, like what just happened. This type of cancer is akin to when a hose pinches and you can no longer water the plants.I made a post earlier in the thread but the cancer he had has a survival rate of 30% at best. Fuck cancer.
The NX's final name should be the Iwata.
The Nintendo Iwata.
It won't happen but it would be an awesome tribute.

Happy birthday, please enjoy it!Today is my birthday and I woke up to see these truly saddening news on GAF.
Iwata always seemed like a great guy, he will be missed. It is both touching and comforting to see the quotes and the various tributes in the OP. Thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

Reading this thread makes me very sad, not just because a good man died, but because of all the thank you pictures and signs and all that. What good do all these do him now? He's gone. We should be telling people like this thank you and showing this out pouring while they are alive. He'll never see any of this, any impact these things have is simple for the people making them to feel better, and thats just kinda sad to me. Heck the last things he likely saw from Gaf was the pure hatred that came out during and after E3.
Its sad we cant all have movie like goodbyes to everyone, where their last days are foretold and we can give a great outpouring of support and love to them. All we are ever left with is saying it after the fact at the absolute most worthless time to the person who could of used it most.
Here are the templates if you want to do it yourself
