Well Spruge-Senapi, considering he has played a part in many of Nintendo's greatest franchises and led the company to absolute dominance in both sectors in the 7th. Generation of gaming, there are not that many people who are as multi-talented as he was. A genius when it came to making games; quite smart when it came to the Wii/DS success. Granted, the GameCube and Wii U are not highlights of his leadership, but Nintendo did generate profit from both. As such, they are success stories in their own right.
Most importantly however, was his humility towards others. Sure, we really didn't see much of it during the Wii/DS era, but the directs showcased his humble and easygoing nature. Not many devs. today possess both. He truly was a once in generation type of person we may never see again. People like him do not appear often anymore; especially with how the gaming industry is now.
