So... What happens to Nintendo now?
People have suggested they do these in a book from time to time. Maybe an idea to raise money for cancer research? Probably something the community could do?

His road plan is set for the foreseeable future, Iwata's legacy will live on. The NX will be his last gift to gamers. Especially for a Japanese company, they will respect his wishes.
I would hope with his deteriorating health that he picked his own successor, and that that person will eventually take over and carry on the torch.

When Steve Jobs died, the same question was asked about Apple, but they are doing just fine. I believe the same will happen for Nintendo.
I hope we get a final Iwata asks of sorts about Iwata, where some nintendo employees and other devlopers who knew him tell some stories and memories of Iwata.

Please tell me someone compiled a PDF of all these.
I would cry so much...
I would personally love to see this, but more along the lines of an hour-long Nintendo Direct where they talk about his accomplishments alongside stories from various developers, from his days at HAL to his rise as CEO, etc.
I guess tweeting Nintendo nicely might help.Would also buy a book. Who wants to start the petition?
Even so it will never be the same. The man had been working on Nintendo games since the NES, you can't easily replace that sort of insightI do hope his successor takes up this mantle. It would a terrible loss for this to not to continue in Iwata's stead.

I'd imagine they'll just carry on Iwata's plan for the next forseeable years. Until they get a new president and the president really takes over the company. Similarly to how Iwata inherited the GCN/GBA from the previous successor, the next president will inherit NX.The official document says Miyamoto and Takeda are the current caretakers in charge
I know Iwata is part of the name, so it might be harder to continue on (though they could rename it), but I hope Nintendo will continue to do interviews and articles like this into the future
It was a really brilliant idea. Having someone with development experience talk to developers brought me more into their headspace than any overproduced ViDoc has ever done. These things are truly a treasure trove of information and I hope Nintendo finds some way to continue them.
It sucks that I feel like I never appreciated how truly awesome these were until he was gone.

If you take all 131 of Iwata Asks and convert them to PDFs (assuming there's an average of 16 pages per article), it comes to 2096 total pages.
At that point, the thing ceases to be a coffee table book and becomes the coffee table.
